How we stack up

Front

Front is an all-in-one customer service platform. Its familiar, collaborative interface powers service and support teams of all sizes to achieve the efficiency of a help desk with the familiarity of email. If you’re looking for the best Intercom alternative, you’ve found it.

  • Say goodbye to context switching – bring together all your communication channels in an omnichannel inbox

  • Seamless, cross-team collaboration such as @mentions, comments, assignments, and shared drafts

  • Multichannel support via email, SMS, live chat, Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter & more

  • Familiar inbox-driven architecture, workflow templates, and pre-built analytics make it easy to implement, administer, and use Front

  • No hidden fees or costs

Intercom

AI is not the only future of customer service. Teams waste time, energy, and revenue opportunities when they don’t have what they need in one place. Your customer service will be impacted too.

  • Separate, disparate apps that keep teams hopping between tools

  • Ticketing architecture leads to disjointed collaboration and limits the ability to create personalized touches

  • No native support for email as a channel

  • Robust configurability for specialized admins where this flexibility is better suited for large enterprises with complex setup needs

  • Hidden pricing and growing costs to configure Intercom for your needs
