Ease Of Use:

Intercom is really easy to use, it was reliable, and offers a lot of great features, The end-user enjoys a positive user experience with the product. It’s fantastic that you can get the same customer service on both the website and the app because they’re all linked together.Integrations are fantastic, and if properly trained, every marketer or even customer service representative will be absolutely delighted.

Verdict:

Intercom is overall a really good, professional product. They have great quality of support, good training material, and they still keep releasing.
Embedded chats with history are quite nice, it has both the messages and notes left by the supporting team members to each other. Chat itself works quite good and overall thing of a good quality.
However, The solution’s pricing doesn’t fit medium sized organizations well. It’s very reasonably priced if you have a very small team of agents and a few thousand customers, or if you are running a massive help center, but if you fall between the two, Intercom gets very expensive. Especially if you need to deal with SLAs and similar more advanced options.
