## Reviews

### "Excellent for emails management" — 5.0/5

> **Rodrigo** | *8 May 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that I can track all my customers emails from one place and I love that I can see if my customer has seen my email and I can take the correct action after that.
> 
> **Cons**: customers informed me that emails go to spam. Not sure if thats related because comes form Intercom.
> 
> My overall experience is very positive with Intercom and for sure I will keep using it

### "Offers customers a great and efficient support experience while saving our internal team countless hours" — 5.0/5

> **Matt** | *26 January 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Intercom does many things extremely well, but if I had to zero in on the two big ones for me, they are Help Center and Fin AI assistant. Both of these tools help thousands of our customers everyday without the need of staffing hundreds of support reps. We do have an excellent team of reps, but Intercom's Help Center and Fin AI take care of the most common customer interactions, so our reps have the bandwidth to engage with more complex customer issues.
> 
> **Cons**: I do wish Intercom's integration with Jira was a little more robust. It does send basic issue tracking data over, but some data points are missing, causing you to have to go hunt them down in Intercom instead of staying in Jira. I'm not sure if this limitation is on Intercom or on Jira though.
> 
> My current company was already using Intercom when I arrived 4 years ago. They had recently switched from Zendesk, and everyone told me how much better it was. After 4 years, it's easy to see why. They continued to innovate with features like Fin AI. I haven't seen anything else on the market that would fit our needs better than what Intercom is doing.

### "Powerful customer communication platform" — 4.0/5

> **Marc** | *25 August 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Without a doubt, what I like the most about INtercom is their AI agent called Fin. Fin can handle complex customer queries using natural language, significantly reducing the workload on support teams.
> 
> **Cons**: Intercom is expensive, especially for startups and small businesses. Their AI agent, Fin, charges about $0.99 per resolution, which adds up quickly at scale.
> 
> Intercom is a powerful customer communication platform with industry-leading automation and AI capabilities.

### "Decent tool for customer comms" — 4.0/5

> **Isla** | *11 April 2026* | Motion Pictures & Film | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The unified inbox is great for keeping track of customer conversations across different channels, like email and chat. It really helps our team stay organised and respond faster. The proactive messaging features are also pretty solid for engaging users at the right time, we've seen good results with those.
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing can get a bit steep as you scale up, especially if you need advanced features beyond the basic support. Also, some of the finer configuration options for automation rules took a bit to figure out, documentation could be clearer on that.

### "Decent product function, needs added features." — 3.0/5

> **Carrie** | *14 January 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Intercom was easy to navigate from the end user standpoint, and it was easy overall to monitor from the WFM RTA perspective.
> 
> **Cons**: Intercom is limited in the Agent States.  For instance, an agent was either in a chat or away.  It was very difficult to calculate idle time without a status that is online - idle.  This makes calculating utilization statistics difficult.
> 
> Overall, my experience was okay.  I can't say that it was terrible, or very good.  The things that I needed from the WFM side to calculate efficiencies wasn't something they provided, but from my standpoint, they were responsive in many other ways.
