Great Customer Platform
As a SaaS company, we use Intercom for both customer support (help desk, Fin, and help center articles) and for customer engagement (proactive support). We're a pretty small and lean team, so having all these functionalities in one place is super useful for us. Intercom helps us onboard users in a comprehensive and engaging way, and allows us to be there to support our customers when they need it.

Intercom is complete and intuitive
I use Intercom for client communications, sending emails, pop ups or low-touch learning journeys with tours and checklists.
April 30, 2024
If you are looking for a solution to get closer to your customer, Intercom is the tool
Currently in my company we use Intercom to create and manage user segmentations, monitor their engagement in our solution, create and manage communication campaigns for events, courses, rich materials, product news and everything else that is necessary to communicate with our users.
In addition, we also manage all onboarding of new users with the support of pop up, tour and checklist tools.

Intercom helps us give 'white glove' customer support.
We use it strictly for support. We have it built into our application and have the chat bubble on the screen for logged in users. We also use the tool frequently for banner announcements to our customers.

Building a Help Center and Communicationg with Customers
We use Intercom for three primary cases. The first use as as a help center, developing a number of articles explaining how to best use our product. To complement these articles, we create tours and tool tips to help users out during their use of the product. Secondly, we use Intercom to track users and send them emails about changes, outages, and feature updates. Lastly we use Intercom to live chat with users when they have questions or encounter any problems.

Intercom is the best for customer support
In my organization we use Intercom to offer service to our clients, resolve their doubts, offer advice and carry out outreach activities.
April 11, 2024
Amazing Product and User Friendly!
We use Intercom to chat with our customers and assist in trouble shooting products, explaining in detail about products and create quotes. This is our main instrument for communication and it is used daily. We use the side conversations email, snooze and creates cases functions.

Love Intercom!
We use Intercom for reactive and proactive support. We need to be able to consistently and effectively communicate with our customers and make it simple and easy for them to reach out to us. We were using a different product that made it hard to filter our proactive messages effectively and didn't have as much functionality and our customers weren't having a great experience. We switched to Intercom to better create multiple campaigns, like product updates and onboarding paths.
April 10, 2024
Intercom is good for financial services companies
We use Intercom to manage investor communications, guide users through onboarding, ask questions to our investor relations team, and for help center articles.

If you are not using Intercom you are missing out!
Fastpaced, continously developing, intelligent and UX friendly. Intercom cements itself as one of the great ones out there when it comes to customer support and customer engagement. It has become one of the most important pillars in our business, not only for providing customer support, but also to gather analytics from customer usage. There's then also the endless integration opportunities, where the integration towards crm is the most outstanding one. Highly recommend Intercom for your business.

Love Intercom!
We use it to handle all incoming correspondence from customers, including some social media integrations, and we also use it to handle all published articles for our help center. This is especially helpful as customers have access to help themselves before needing further assistance from us, which is a win win for everyone.
April 01, 2024
High Cost, Low Value
we use it on the home page and in the service section. <br>the product is pretty good, but the customer service and post sale support is terrible. the Cust Success Rep refuses to give his contact info and you always have to escalate the issue to his manager for a response. time will tell if they will remain with us past contract renewal, but at the moment i would vote against. PS> their integrations are very limited... check carefully if need any APIs.

Intercom review
We use Intercom as our go to help desk, communication with our customers across two different apps and a website. I can't imagine our product without Intercom anymore. It solves a major challenge for us - communicating with our customers efficiently. We love everything about it - from the routing conversations feature, to letting us update our customers about the current status in the product, etc.
March 26, 2024
Good Product
I use Intercom to receive messages from customers and "chat" with them. The customer came to us asking technical and product questions that we address through internal investigation, like for example issues they have, new features, etc.
March 21, 2024
Our startup journey with intercome
We mainly use Intercome to support and engage customers across the web and mobile. Intercom's conversational interface and workflows make communicating with customers easy and natural. The breadth of integrations with complementary tools has extended
Intercom’s capabilities for us. Being able to incorporate solutions like
Slack is the core of our stack makes Intercom more
than a standalone application.

Works good!
I work at Customer Success and use Intercom as a tool to communicate with my clients. I use quite a few features. Through snoozing, I plan further contact with each customer. As an organization, we use FIN. I also use filtering. Can't forget about macro too.
We have been using Intercom for 3 years to support the users of our SaaS platform and it's integral to our day to day ability to keep our customers happy. We absolutely love how easily it integrates into our application directly, so to the user their experience is seamless, and on our end we have all of the information we need about that contact right at our fingertips during the course of the interaction. In the end, this increases product adoption among the real estate agents that work under our real estate brokerage customers.

Intercom
I use Intercom in order to respond to customers' questions and issues involved in interacting with our app, and to resolve billing and technical situations for them.

Intercom: Easy To Use and Feature Rich!
Intercom has significantly helps our organization scale our CS (customer success) operations. We have streamlined all of our internal operations using the new tool and are grateful to the Intercom's team in supporting our team's growth. The tool is incredibly easy to learn and train on.

Intercom for small start-up enablement function
We use Intercom for its knowledgebase and support functionality. It addresses our need for a centralized system with access for both our support people and our partners support people as we scale.
I love the automations, the AI functionality and ease of building our knowledge base. It's also been easy to set up and to manage permissions.

I like using Intercom and you will too!
We use Intercom for all customer communications and marketing emails. We strongly leverage the in-app communication and the help article feature. At this time, we do not use the chatbot feature, but we would be interested in it in the future. We used to use the rules feature, and I am trying to update these so we can use the platform more efficiently. I really enjoy Intercom as its interface is very easy to use and comfortable to learn. The addition of AI tools also helps make communication with customers on all scales (short & quick, to long and drawn-out) very easy to manage and complete. I don't have too much feedback in terms of recommendations, as we currently do not use enough of the features to critique them.

Intercom: A Valuable Tool for User Analysis and Beyond
There are three issues we wanted to solve using intercom:1. Multilingual support page/support2. Collection and analysis of user behavior logs3. Securing a means of communication with users who do not respond via email. Currently, there are still some parts that have not been completely resolved for 2, but most of 1 and 3 have been achieved.
February 19, 2024
Hard to top!
Intercom is used to host our help center and our live chat functionality. The tool allows us to easily host guides in multiple languages and supports our 2500 global clients. Without Intercom, we'd really struggle to viably return support messages to this volume of clients.
February 12, 2024
Intercom helped us more to getting started
Setting up Customer Service Management, Chat and Email ticketing support, creating internal and external knowledge base and integrating different third-party software to connect data from another software and do the transaction through Intercom. The only issue that I can think of, whenever we need support, the response from your customer service does not respond right away.

GREAT TOOL FOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT BUT NOT CHEAP.
WE USE INTERCOM TO SOLVE OUR CLIENT'S DOUBTS USING OUR GOLF MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE -SAAS- THAT IS QUITE COMPLEX TO CONFIGURE. SO, WE RECEIVE OUR CLIENTS' DOUBTS AND PROBLEMS, AND WE TRY TO SOLVE THEM WITH THE LEAST HUMAN INTERACTION POSSIBLE.
