The backbone of our whole customer relation operation Intercom is the backbone of our whole customer relation operation. We use it to communicate, on-board, and support our users. It is an overall great product but it still suffers from some small UX glitches. You can find yourself looking at stale data in the UI and losing work to some misplaced clicks.

Pricing is designed by scam artists I trusted Intercom for years. But when you investigate the invoices, you will find hidden charges. The best one is where they link pricing to the term 'active users'. In the small print, they write their own definition of 'active users' which includes non-active users from 90 days ago! These are the pricing tactics of true scam artists. For example, If you have 200 chats this month with no other messages sent. But you sent 1 email campaign 90 days ago to 5800 people. They will charge you the rate for 6000 'active' users for the current month. Buyer beware, as it is very difficult to stop using Intercom once you have integrated into your business. We have finally decided to bite the bullet and move to another tool at less than 20% of the cost.

Very good software and easy to use Very good software, this CRM that actually offers nice features (series, bot, articles, reports and much more), and it is easy to use. I really love the fact that users can rate our team, their feedback is precious! Intercom team is always nice, polite and willing to help. I don't have any complaint, but I am not so experienced as an Itercom user which is why I didn't rate 5 stars.

Easy to set up. Big impact immediately. We set up our Rippl chatbot using Intercom in only a few hours, and it has handled many thousands of conversations with users so far. There are plenty of guides and tutorials. Adding it to our landing page was easy as we only needed to add a few lines of code. We are now able to focus on handling the complicated questions that really need human answers.

Intercom is a great tool but their… Intercom is a great tool but their sales practices are questionable. They are not transparent, it's very difficult to understand the actual cost of their services and they do everything they can to charge you extras even when you do not use them. It's a shame that they act this way because they will lose their customer base at some point, considering extra costs can add up real quick and for no reason on the customer's point of view.
