"Powerful tool that lets you source, qualify, and track leads at every stage of the customer journey"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Intercom has so many features and capabilities but it's easy and intuitive to use. Customer service is responsive and helpful too!

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Intercom is not very mobile friendly: banners and custom bots are quite intrusive on mobile and product tours are only available on desktop. Also slows down after I build more than 26 conversation flows for custom bots. Pricey though for startups (after the first free year). Please be more transparent with pricing prior to closing the subscription.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom helps us segment users so we can communicate with them more effectively/directly. Also automates our customer success and in-product comms processes, helping us take care of customers even over the weekend or when we're not able to reply ASAP.

"Intercom Superfan =)"
What do you like best about Intercom?

We absolutely love the outbound features on Intercom, specifically the product tours and now tool tips. So nice to be able to create these without code.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

We don't have any major complaints – Intercom is saving us a ton of time. We pay for a separate support phone number through an integration – it would be nice if Intercom supported this natively.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing support and customer education.

"Intercom is a very versatile tool that allows us to interact with our users in specific contexts."
What do you like best about Intercom?

Intercom is a very versatile tool that allows us through different features to interact with our users in specific contexts. In my particular case, we have used Intercom to launch the NPS survey and the overall experience has been great.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Currently, it isn't possible to save filters in survey reports and it is a pain to have to set up filters over and over again.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom has helped us reach our users since we currently don't have a way of interacting with them at all the key moments.

"Intercom is the best chat platform I've ever worked with."
What do you like best about Intercom?

I really like the functionality of being able to integrate other APPs, it makes the day-to-day operation a lot easier. In addition to the fact that it is possible to make the answers in the chat automatic, this is also a huge advantage of the platform.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I would like notifications to be personalized, where we could choose the sound that would notify us when we receive a conversation. In addition, nothing to complain, Intercom surprises with each update.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom solves the problem of the barrier that is to talk to several customers from all over the country. And this is done by providing an excellent quality service with several mechanisms that help a lot.

"Great experience, I like the way Intercom works"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The interface. The short cuts. The way the articles to Helpcentre created.

The right menu with the client's details and latest conversations. Also, I find it hard to make in-app posts visible for everyone

Supporting our customers, getting statistics, Outbound tool

"Intercom Review from a NuggMD Employee"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I like that it makes it really easy to communicate with customers by the use of saved responses and keyboard shortcuts. My favorite part is that I am able to send an outbound message to my customers that will show up for them right away. This can save a lot of hassle when trying to help our patients get connected with their doctor.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

A few of the changes for the new inbox are a little harder to use. For example, in Qualifications, we used to be able to click on the link to their account to open it, however now it opens it as a text box that we would need to copy and paste the link for.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom is solving multiple problems, my main happiness comes with the ability to use dark mode, as the light mode only before caused eye strain for me. The shortcuts are amazing, however some of them don't seem to work as they should, but overall it's been helpful.

"Intercom has turned me into a tech wizard overnight!"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I went from hospitality seamlessly into SaaS thanks to this bad boy! You guys rock! The flow from one action to the next is great, I onboarded right before the inbox upgrade and the difference is night and day. The product is supremely useful, intuitive, and easy to operate. I used to jump off horses for a living people!

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Sometimes issues with bugs and glitches. Can experience loading delays.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping my team deliver speedy, helpful responses driven by a variety of tools.

"Easy to use, quick, reliable"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The ease of quick responses, macros, and use of emojis and gifs!

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Sometimes sound is lagged on messages, so you hear the sound first and cannot see the message until a refresh. The quick keys are getting easier to use.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping my company respond quickly and efficiently to our clients

"My IC Review"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I like how easy is to track the interactions and the whole user experience. Everything is so easy to find and the support team is willing to help all the time.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

It occasionally take some time to load the interaction on the conversations panel, it increases in the number on the left but it takes a while to appear on the conversations panel. Also, would like to be more creative with the background, currently, there are only two colors available and it is fine, just would like more design like the prior version before this latest update.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Actually, I contacted support regarding an issue I had with a shortcut (ctrl+k), it was not regular nor often. However, the representative was very attentive and curious about this.

"Very smooth experience"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Easy to understand and utilize it. As a new Intercom user for two months, they have lots of tutorials to find, and a very helpful forum too.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

The article editing for KB articles could be better

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Intercom to reach out to users, create KB articles and gather feedback from them, so it helps us a lot by its easy to use UI to reach out to customers

"Great CRM, specially for Support Ops + Constant Valuable Product Update + Reliable Support"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It is very simple to work with it, while still very powerful. UI efforts to save every second and give the best experience and ROI are definitely things there are far ahead of other major CRMs.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Standard Reporting features need some improvement. I majorly need a few couple changes and it feels that I would have to upgrade to have them. One of the features, for instance, is being able to order data by any field, not not the key ones.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom is helping us to grow fast and sustainably. Being able to talk to hundreds of prospects and customers on a daily basis while having a lean and very qualified team is an amazing deliverable from them. The time Intercom saves allows us to provide the level of service we want, while scaling our team at a much slower pace than how fast we are growing.

"Very good and saves a lot of time on the team"
What do you like best about Intercom?

My team members can respond to all customers from one place for all channels and this saves a lot of time

What do you dislike about Intercom?

We only lack some analyzes about the number of visitors and the number of people who clicked on the chat but did not talk to us and some general analyzes from the intercom

Gathering all channels and replying from one place is more than wonderful

"One of the Best Communication Tools"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's easy to set up and efficient. The staff are really friendly. Availability of various self-help articles.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

One can no longer see their ratings unless they have permission. This happened after the heart icon was scrapped with the new update.

Intercom helps me keep up to date with my Support metrics which ensures quality service to our customers.

What do you like best about Intercom?

Intercom really helps track how customers are using our site and where we need to increase our support documentation.

We need to ability to group conversations by the same customer. Also - not being able to forward a conversation without the original client email is frustrating.

"I love intercom!! It's a great resource and I can't live without it!"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The new inbox makes replying to your clients fast and easy! They offer gifs to add personality to your conversations and their report analytics are unmatched. 10/10 recommend!

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's fast with the new shortcuts, it offers our clients a great experience, the reporting is wonderful to see our client satisfaction and response times, we are able to get feedback from our clients with the comments option after conversations

"Good experience with good customer support"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I like that they present different integrations and documentation about them. The API is comfortable to use and very useful. The app itself works very well and makes it easy to centralize communications.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

There could be integrations with WhatsApp that work better, but that already depends more on external clients. You could improve by looking for a way to directly connect a Whatsapp without intermediaries

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is solving the problem of having communications by many different means. It benefits us by having everything on one platform, increasing our performance with the clients.
