### "Mastering Intercom helps to master your customer support!"

August 18, 2025

5.0

There's a learning curve when trying to set up Intercom, but the support team is helpful (yes, \[sensitive content hidden\] is helpful too). Feedback is heard and new features enhance usability (shortcuts FTW).

Pros

The customisation options, workflows/rules and the integrations truly help to make Intercom your own. Keeping it simple with just a few features or building an overly complex message flow, it's all supported

Cons

Although AI definitely is the future of customer support, the last feature updates, webinars and other communication only revolve AI. More new content regarding non-AI usage is welcome!

### "Nexus - the central connection"

December 18, 2025

5.0

Magnifico!!! This is all I can say. Truly amazing tools. What more can I say? It is absolutely perfect.

Pros

Reality has gone beyond my expectations. This is one of the greatest tools and truly worth the price. Our way of communicating and messaging our customers and clients has become more convenient and reliable and time saving.

Cons

Nah! Everything is perfect—the features, the setup, and the accessibility are things you will be delighted with.

### "Intercom - Ganhos à sua operação"

July 25, 2025

5.0

Fácil desde a negociação comercial. A implementação foi muito boa, os resultados então, nem se falam... tem muito mais features que nossa operação ainda subutiliza e temos um time muito bacana de acompanhamento que sempre está a nos orientar.

Pros

A facilidade de fazer. Não precisa ser entendedor de código, o no-code faz com que um leigo em programação, mas com visão de processo, facilite a vida de uma operação, seja de venda, suporte, etc...

Cons

Olha, é contraintuitivo: mas fico perdido com TANTA novidade que vocês lançam. Talvez tenha um "changelog" ou algo concentrado de histórico de informações, mas pelo menos não percebi a existência. Ai acabo sabendo das coisas pela minha CSM (excelente, por sinal) - mas tem muito da minha desorganização, também.

### "Like Feeling Like a Sales Commission Cash Cow? Intercom is for you."

April 29, 2025

1.0

Pros

The software works wonderfully. Performs exactly as advertised and works well across multiple channels. You could say the same about Intercom's competitors though.

Cons

Working with the sales team is like walking onto a used car lot in a shady part of town. You're on your own and no one cares. We have been a customer for 2+ years. Intercom Sales Ninja reaches out in January for a meeting. I ask if anything has changed. They so say no, and so I decline. Turns out Intercom changed their pricing in January. New pricing is roughly 30% lower for our feature set. Our contract auto-renews in February. Whoops, I'm busy running a business, I don't obsessively check the Intercom pricing page. Rather than simply re-adjust our pricing to the lower price point when the contract auto renews, like every other software vendor that doesn't view their customers as wallets they can pick, they hope we don't notice. Whatever, my fault. I reach out to add a new seat to the contract, so we can get a new contract under the new pricing. Simple, right? Me: Hey, I noticed the new pricing. Add a seat and send over a new contract with the new pricing. Easy peasy? Sales Ninja: Sure, no problem. I'll send over a contract. 2 days later - Sales Ninja Docusigns a contract with a new seat under the old 30% higher rate. Cool move to trick us into 12 more months of the old pricing. Luckily, I read contracts before signing. Me: Hey, you sent the wrong thing. Here's what we need (again). Sales Ninja: Sure, no problem. 2 days later - Sale Ninja Docusigns another contract with a bunch of extra stuff I didn't ask for like thousands of dollars in minimum commitments to emails and FinAI responses that the website clearly states are pay as you go. Email Sales Ninja back pointing out we clearly didn't ask for all the minimum commitments on pay as you go messages. Wait 5 days. Don't hear anything. Set yet another godforsaken Google Meet that should be an email because Sales Ninja loves to waste your time to break your spirits. Google Meet goes exactly like you would expect. Sales Ninja provides vague excuses about why the extra stuff needs to be there. I still don't have a contract signed and I hate these guys. Anyway, The software is great. At least four different colleagues have asked what we use and I always lead with my experiences with the sales team. This isn't the first time something like this has happened. Changing support systems is hard, so think long and hard if you're willing to deal with a commission obsessed sales team. They certainly aren't there to help you.

### "Intercom is Incredible!!"

August 19, 2025

5.0

The live chat is fast and responsive, and the ability to see user activity in real time adds a layer of context that makes support feel proactive rather than reactive.

Pros

Very secure and has an easy-to-use interface. Intercom brings live chat, email, and help desk tools into one sleek interface. That means less juggling between platforms and more seamless conversations.

Cons

Pulling reports and customizing them is challenging. While the UI is clean, some users wish for more flexibility in customizing chat widgets or automating workflows beyond what’s offered out of the box.

### "Fin is a game changer, best product on the market. "

April 28, 2025

5.0

Intercom is amazing. We're so happy we moved from Zendesk to Intercom. Fin is a game changer and they're a great company that is improving at pace.

Pros

Fin AI Agent is amazing. Its so easy to set up and provides amazing customer service. We switched to Intercom specifically for Fin and it has exceeded our expectations. The resolution and CSAT have been amazing. It's also amazing to see how quickly Fin is evolving. In the last year, we've seen Intercom develop and deploy so many useful features for Fin that have made it even better. I'm always excited to see what's next for Fin.

Cons

We've switched from Zendesk so there a couple of things that Intercom hasn't quite caught up to speed with Zendesk for like nested attributes, a couple metrics for calls.

Switched from

[Zendesk Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/164283/Zendesk/)

We were looking for plugins for Zendesk that utilised AI. We found some pretty good ones, but they were an additional charge to Zendesk. When we found Fin, we were able to trial it. Within 5 minutes Fin was providing high quality respondes and we knew we had to switch.

### "My overall experience using Intercom"

March 22, 2025

5.0

Intercom's unique features and benefits make it more attractive for businesses seeking to improve customer engagement, insights, and support. For me, the time I worked with a client and had to use intercom, it wasn't difficult, so highly recommend

Pros

I like the intercom's segmentation feature which enables me to divide customers base into specific groups based on their behavior, demographics, and other amazing features too like the fact I can Provide timely, personalized support to customers through Intercom's messaging platform.

Cons

Not so user-friendly interfaces<if they could the still add more features and make it more easier for new users to navigate with less stress

### "Powerful tool that annoys customers"

March 27, 2025

3.0

Intercom is a very well made tool with lots of capabilities, but we often found it just set us up for failure as our customers would be upset by the time they asked for a real person. It was counterintuitive and not worth the price.

Pros

It was nice to not have to worry about always being available to answer live chats

Cons

Most people got frustrated and would request to talk to a real person anyways

Switched from

[ChatSpot](https://www.capterra.com/p/10015234/ChatSpot/)

We made the switch from ChatSpot to Intercom because we needed something that could run itself and save us time from talking to customers. However, we are going back to ChatSpot because we have happier customers that way.

Hey Cyrus, Bobby here, I lead the CS team at Intercom. I’m not fully following your feedback. Our AI Agent Fin can resolve 50%+ of questions instantly, and easily hand over to your team the rest. If it wasn’t working well for you or your customers we’d love to help you. Feel free to email me at Robert.stapleton@intercom.io if you want! Thanks

### "Love Intercom and FIN is my friend!"

July 29, 2025

5.0

Overall I love using Intercom. I am customer support at our small company so I'm the one in Intercom every day Mon-Fri. It's mostly user-friendly but sometimes it's hard to find certain settings as they are everywhere. Intercom has made this a little better.

Pros

The inbox is so easy to use and the AI (FIN) is fantastic and getting better. I love the rephrase AI options on conversations. It's also easy to create articles and snippets.

Cons

It's so hard to find articles and snippets about certain aspects of our product to update them. I wish there was a message on the chat box that we could schedule to come up at a certain time on certain days.

### "Intuitive, reliable, and forward-thinking"

August 19, 2025

5.0

Nothing but great. From transparent, clear pricing to a sleek product that feels native to our app (even though we haven’t fully leveraged it) they are, in my opinion, leading the way in shaping the present and future of support.

Pros

It’s a simple yet powerful tool that keeps our CX and sales teams running seamlessly. I really value their commitment to continuous innovation. Their AI tools and help center features are excellent, and everything feels incredibly intuitive. From inbound to outbound, it’s a fantastic platform for delivering outstanding CX.

Cons

There’s nothing I dislike. There are features I wish they offered, but that’s different from disliking anything.

### "Who's Talking Here"

August 20, 2025

3.0

If Intercom cannot help us stop FIN from responding once we join the conversation with a live agent, I'm not sure all of the other benefits matter.

Pros

AI does a great job picking up information to share with inquiries. We're also very happy with how it integrates with our other systems.

Cons

You cannot turn off the auto attendant (FIN) once you join the conversation. This is VERY confusing to the inquirer. Likewise, searching with a name, email or other search word rarely pulls up previous conversations (open or closed).

### "Intercom being very useful and user friendly"

September 24, 2025

5.0

Overall, it is a good experience with intercom being very user friendly and has all the features you need.

Pros

Using Intercom makes emails and chats very organized. Messaging is very secured that only the intended recipients can open the messages. Issues rarely happen but you can easily contact customer support on issues and set up assistance.

Cons

Searching Links in intercom is quite difficult. Especially if it is showing links that are not related to the one that you are searching for.

### "Intercom: My tool to victory! "

April 14, 2025

4.0

Intercom was suggested to me by an LMS hosting company and when we tested the tool in our live production it made all the difference in the world. I truly like the comfort of the PC and the App, I can take my work anywhere. The amount of services to add on are very interesting and useful.

Pros

The practicality of the tool and its integration into our LMS platform (Moodle).

Cons

Honestly? Nothing. If I must mention something is that I would design the admin site a bit more intuitive or userfriendly.

We have been using Intercom for years and are planning to increase the usage. We basically use Intercom for all the customer data and customer comms.

Pros

Modern and flexible service designed for B2b SaaS companies. Very good that the platform is developing constantly.

Cons

Pricing could be simpler; usage-based pricing is great but it can make the budgeting hard since the monthly usage.

### "Love Intercom"

August 21, 2025

5.0

Love Intercom, apart from the reports the ease to optimise Fin, help articles and workflows is great.

Pros

I've been using Intercom for 4 years and can see how much product improvements and new features Intercom invests in to. Intercom is a tool that makes CS a lot easier for not only Champions but also managers who are responsible for their team's metrics and improvements. Fin (the bot) and workflows are great tools for us that we've been using regularly.

Cons

I find Intercom's reports to not be easy to understand and read. It does require a lot of fine tunning to get a report you wish to have and that's very limiting.

### "Powerful Features with Room for Improvement"

May 26, 2025

5.0

"Overall, I'm very satisfied with Intercom’s functionality. A special shout-out to the support team — they’re not only highly competent but also genuinely friendly and helpful, which makes a big difference.

Pros

Intercom’s AI functionality is truly impressive — it makes customer interactions smarter and more efficient right out of the box. I also really appreciate how easy it is to build powerful workflows. The intuitive interface allows for complex automation without requiring deep technical knowledge, which is a huge plus.

Cons

"While Intercom has many strengths, there are a few areas that could use improvement. Emails sometimes end up in spam, which affects deliverability. The Messenger widget could be clearer from the customer’s perspective — it can be confusing to navigate. It's also often difficult to quickly understand what each conversation is about. Lastly, I had higher expectations for the real-time translation feature; it would be great to have more customization options, especially on a per-agent level.

July 6, 2025

We see better engagement and quicker resolution times when providers or partners need clarification especially as it relates to dosing guidelines or regulatory documentation.

Pros

Intercom’s live chat and automated workflows enable us to coach healthcare providers in real time particularly in sensitive product inquiries. Integration with our CRM allows for a seamless handoff from support to account managers.

Cons

It becomes expensive as our contact list grows, its learning curve was visible to some of our non-technical staff.

Happy, use it every day. I like working with it, it is easy to use. I can even call the users via the product.

Pros

The overview when an email comes in, that you can see previous emails, search on email/subjects etc.

Cons

That often our emails ends up in peoples spam. Then we have to email our users again in Gmail which delay the process.

### "Its a great system for customer service"

April 1, 2025

5.0

It has been great; there are a couple of things that I wish they would improve, such as blocking certain users, blocking closing messages, and other small details that would make the experience easy.

Pros

It has been over a year working with this system, and Im just happy that it exist. It takes a while to get a hold of it, but once you master their dashboard and all the functions, it becomes your best friend when handling multiple queries and solving customer issues.

Cons

One thing I dont like much is the fact that you cant block team mates from closing messages. Sometimes tickets get closed by accident and it makes the process difficult.

Easy and complete. I use intercome daily and even though it has a learning curve and sometimes can feel complex it's a user-friendly and efficient tool

Pros

The variety of tools, the easy creation/navigation/use of segments, the customer service and how easy it is to find answers to any questions you may have

Cons

The email format could offer more tools to construct emails. For example, more fonts, more dividers, more outlines etc

Very happy using Intercom and it has become a key software for our company over the last couple of years.

June 26, 2025

Intercom is great when it comes to proactive messaging and segmentation to interact with the customers, though older chat histories have loading delays, which can interrupt the working process.

Pros

The intercom has enabled us to manage more customer conversations better. Our proactive engagement efforts have been good because of the ability to segment users and send them targeted messages.

Cons

Historical conversation threads might take a little long and gives a pause as I have to wait till all the contents are loaded.

Intercom stands out as a powerful tool for businesses looking to enhance customer support. Its features set an excellent choice for growing businesses, though its cost deter smaller teams. For businesses with the resources to invest in its capabilities, Intercom will be a game-changer in building meaningful customer relationships.

Pros

Intercom is a widely known communication software that it was designed to enhance interactions between businesses and their customers, which it has become a first choice for companies endeavor to provide real time support with customers.

Cons

It's a pricey software, limited customization when it comes for chatbots, it will take time to learn the system

Hey Jessica, Bobby here, I lead the customer support team. I'm bummed to see this feedback, I like to think these are some of Intercom's strengths, so would love to chat and see and how I can help. We completely rebuilt our pricing last year to offer more value -- lots of pricing flexibility and all plans have powerful functionality for helping customers. We also have lots of customization for our AI Agent like tone, multilingual, teaching it guidance, the ability to read and write actions, and smoothly integrating into your help desk. Most customers tell us this is the most powerful AI Agent on the market. Let me know if you open to chatting! My email is robert.stapleton@intercom.io

### "A long needed review"

March 25, 2025

5.0

I recommend Intercom warmly to my colleagues in this line of work. Especially their support team is well trained, communicative and helpful to a very broad extent. I've dabbled with most of the options in my plan, because it's a fun system to work in and try things out in. The program works intuitively and it's only rarely that I can't figure out how something works.

Pros

Recently the AI-bot (Fin) to help me out with everyday chats and questions.

Cons

The obligatory upgrading to a higher paying model for some options that seem to be included to the basic model, at first.
