"Intercom Feedback"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Intercom is easy to navigate.When using Intercom, it is uncomplicated to investigate as the history of the case will be shown once you press "ctrl+ shift+ E". It's also easy to distinguish the chat and email due to the icons.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

There's nothing much to dislike in Intercom but I believe that there is a room for improvement. Sometimes the tool has an issue, it does not work and it takes time to load.

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

Intercom helps us filter the cases we are receiving. It has an option where we can transfer the case to the designated team who handles a specific type of concern.

"Tasks has never been made easy."
What do you like best about Intercom?

What I like the most about Intercom is that it gives us a lot of opportunities to make our interactions easy; we can leave notes exactly on the conversation to allow a few people to see and collaborate for a better solution before responding. We also love the way how intercom keeps everything in good record so we can easily go back and look for the conversations needed for our references.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I have nothing wrong to say about this app, in fact it is great to have this experience with the app and it made our work easier and convenient. I wish we could have a better way to check all the contact history of whose agent handled the case before.

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

It solved our concern with regards to the templates and Macros, we are able to properly automate the emails we are sending and schedule the response needed for our consumers.

"A user-friendly tool for everything customer-experience related."
What do you like best about Intercom?

The setup guide of Intercom is excellent and I love the simplicity of the interface where everything is in one place. It's amazing how you can talk to both your peers and customers at the same time. One feature that I like is how the enter key is not active to avoid unwanted message to be sent accidentally.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

The only minor issue I have with Intercom is that sometimes, my chat will end when I press a certain key combination, of which I am not sure what it is. But it's great that you can immediately reopen the chat conversation. Other than that, I am currently unable to come up with any downsides to using Intercom.

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

Our team can more easily manage our queues because of the visibility it provides. While being straightforward, the chatbots are efficient at responding to customers' general questions. All team members can also see conversations and collaborate easily thanks to transparency.

"The benefits of using Intercom"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The Intercom is very helpful because we can easily communicate with other people if we have concerns or need to inform them about a specific matter. Also, I like that we can monitor real-time all the chats and we can easily assign and unassign it on the specific person.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Intercom is very hard to use when you use it for the first time, It's not user-friendly at all. And it may lead to some confusion for us. Maybe, it's better we can remove unnecessary things.

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

By using Intercom, It helps us to confirm some details and information that we need with other people. Also, it's very convenient to use for communicating with other people.

"User-friendly Intercom"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Intercom is very user friendly you can easily switch the channel you would like to use between email and chat. You can also see the rating right away. Unlike other chat platform, it will take a while to be able to see the ratings.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

For me, I think the feature that needs to improve with the intercom is to have the ability to change the channel because what I noticed is that, when the customer responded via email, we can no longer respond via chat even though they initially reached out via chat.

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

Customers have the option to send an email, or chat with us using one thread only which helps us to see previous conversation easily and we can assist the customer where the previous agent left off.

"My Intercom Experience"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It is so organized. All of my accomplised task are easily tracked down. Also It is very user-friendly to navigate. Having an inbox also allows me to manage easy.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I can't think of anything else because it is designed so easily to navigate and it is not so intimidating to use.

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

Being able to solve our customers' concerns over this platform is so beneficial since I can multitask such as call the guest and the same same time chatting with other guest.

"Easy to Navigate!"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's my first time using Intercom in my current company and what I like the most is, you can navigate this tool easily, and you are able to use both chat and email in just one place.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I don't see any other downside while using the intercom, aside from creating some Macro (Spiel). When an update happened last year, the ability to create a personalized macro was removed and I am not sure if that was being taken out by our company or the Intercom itself.

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

Intercom is the tool we use to communicate with our clients, and it is very easy to provide them with the support they need as we can navigate email and chats in one place.

"Intercom helps organization to build team work"
What do you like best about Intercom?

What I love about Intercom is we have a visibility to all of the chats and emails. This way our team can work together and can follow up any pending emails. All emails is visible to our team so we won't need to wait for other staff to come from their off just to follow up an email or chat.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Well, maybe we can have an option to snooze a case to certain channel without reassigning it to others. I find it hard to snooze a case to a certain channel when all of my colleagues are active as it will just end up on their bucket.

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

It helps ou team to follow up a pending case whenever the other staff is not available. The software allows the team to have a visibility to all the upcoming emails and chats. As well as the previous cases we have handled.

"Loving Intercom"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I have been using Intercom for more than a year and excellence to everyone who started this tool to make people's lives easier. Easy to navigate, very user-friendly that even people who use this for the first time will not have a difficult time navigating everything. No need for a specific training. Terrific tool!

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I just had a bit of a strenous time finding where to add another email address where I can forward an email. This feedback is for the latest version of Intercom. But over time, I was able to find where I can do such.

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

Intercom solves the clutter by categorzing which one should be in the email section and which one should be in the chat section automatically. Very efficient! Very systematic!

"Efficient and user-friendly platform"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's very easy to navigate even for beginners. It allows chats/emails to be easily managed by snooze functions. It's also efficient to assign chats to different teams. It's the easiest communication platform I've ever used.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

There are downtime sometimes but is still manageable considering that all systems experiene the same. All in all the system is working as expected. I can't think of any other feedback.

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

1. It integrates email and chat function so instead of using 2 or more applications for each, it allows you to only use one. 2. It allows assignment of chats to different teams as easy as one click. 3. With emojis, it improves customer communication resulting to greater customer interactions.

Intercom is user friendly. I like the keyboard shortcuts that can be used for this app. It makes it time efficient.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

What I dislike about Intercom is that under "attributes" there are too many drop down options. Maybe this can be lessen into other part of the app.

What do you like best about Intercom?

The interface is user friendly, well organized and easy to use. Every button is very useful and the sleek design makes it enjoyable to use as it is easy on the eyes.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Recently, I am experiencing lags on the Intercom. While using the app, there's a time that it will stop and even if I click another button it takes a long time to respond.

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

It helps us to easily communicate with our customers through chats and emails. We also receive customer's account information on Intercom everytime they contact us and it's easier for us to support them as this tool is consolidated with our other tools.

It is a faster way to send messages, with real-time access to CSAT and lighter support volumes and the only platform to combine the power of automation and human customer support.

The page where you must send a message has some delays as it took a long time to load.

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

It improves agent experience. Customer satisfaction has increased. It helps to resolve every guest's concerns, which can often be more complicated. This allows businesses to grow.

"EMAIL & CHAT"
What do you like best about Intercom?

We use Intercom on a daily basis to chat and email our partners or customer, and assist them with their concerns and requests. Using Intercom to interact with them makes our job so much easier.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

There's not much to dislike about Intercom, really. If anything, it's the fact that it automatically times out if you become idle for a certain period of time..

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

Recently, Intercom has updated the automation section which gives us the ability to create custom answers and this really saves us so much time as we don't need to manually type everything.

"Intercom review"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Very easy to use, easy to navigate and user-friendly tools. Also, its easy to find the previous cases you handled and the option to have two kinds of interface is really great. (Light and Dark theme)

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Updates may be lost, updates may be rejected by intercom because of server side exceptions, or mysterious thing called "concurrent updates" when there is just a single update.

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

Intercom is overall a really good, professional product. They have great quality of support, good training material, and they still keep releasing.When we were first started using them, they were flexible, had great customer service, and seemed genuinely invested in helping us succeed.

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

Problems that Intercom solving is our company engaging or assisting guest and our chauffeurs. That way, we are like a third party communcation with the guest and the chauffeurs.

Its ability to provide personalised messaging and support, its automation capabilities for handling routine tasks and its integrations with other business tools - they're also ahead of the game with AI

What do you like best about Intercom?

I personally love the easy navigation and the friendly user interface of the Intercom chat. It's so easy that you can do multi-tasking with multiple live chats.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Not totally dislike, it's more like a system bug that happens sometimes. When the customer's reply will took a couple of seconds to load than usual. It's quite normal for me, considering the multiple live chats. So I would just refresh the intercom.

"An innovative way to reach out to customers."
What do you like best about Intercom?

I love that you can use chat and email simultaneously, and you don't have to use two sites and go back and forth to talk to your customers. It also has a nice look, and it's customizable to your liking with the light and dark themes.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

As of the moment, Intercom only provides the best services I can need to communicate with my customers. Hopefully, there can be more themes with different backgrounds and colors.

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

"Intercom gives you an option to communicate whether email or by chatting."
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's fast, versatile and straight forward. Creating your own macro makes it easy for you to constuct replies which you often use without having to copy it from another platform and paste it to your Intercom.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I feel like it tends to show some delay during a specific time of the day like for me, it happens right around 9:000 AM aest. Probably a lot users like me are working on our Intercoms during that time.

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

Communicating with our customers through email or chat. Intercom saves time for a lot of customers for us. The fact that it offers an option to snooze the chat or email without needing for them to call and the convenience of it being asynchronous gives us opportunity to deal with more customers at once.
