    Glance
    Glance is an ideal tool where the customer base is not very technologically savvy. We support farmers, so this demographic is known for being behind on the technological advances of their industry. We are primarily a call center. Glance has helped our new agents be better equipped from day one, which results in their onboarding time being much quicker since they are able to see common issues first-hand

    While Fin is an awesome investment, the setup and tuning of responses to meet brand alignment and delivery have taken some time. If you prioritize not just resolution rate and accuracy, but style and delivery, it's a bigger lift. However, for the vast majority of businesses, the step and its impact on resource management are a worthy investment.

    Pros
    Glance
    • Being able to start a meeting right from your task bar with minimal clicks is key for great customer service.
    • The ability to customize our support domain makes it an easy address to verbally give the customer.

    Intercom
    • Answer easy questions based off of the knowledgebase I provided
    • It's decent with redirecting customers who aren't satisfied to a human agent (me)
    • I like how it quotes the article that it is using to the customer, I'm not sure how often they're actually clicking on that article, but it's nice that the option is there

    Cons
    Glance
    • We would like more reporting features and more granularity with what we see.
    • We would like to schedule our own reports.
    • We would like more control over the user templates.

    • Customizing Fin by Intercom's escalation paths could be easier (ex. if there are some inquiries we don't want passed to the human team)
    • Reporting on conversations handled to completion by Fin by Intercom (not just those that are marked as "resolved")
    • It would be helpful to be able to indicate to Fin by Intercom when an answer is wrong, or train it on things that it shouldn't do (not only what it should do)

    We have been and will be continuing our journey with Intercom and nothing too concerning has happened that I have experienced or heard of that has us on the edge yet. If it ever happens it will be something along the lines of "Outgrowing" the use of need of the platform.

    It's incredibly useful. You're honestly a little silly if you don't because it can handle simple conversations very easily and more in-depth conversations if you're willing to put in the work. It's great both as a customer success representative (with the AI agent) and as a higher-level customer success reporter.

    Easy to get hold of and always very helpful. Having a support team dedicated to one product and one that will support all of your users (not just the admins) made it easy to implement in a small business.

    Intercom is the premier customer support/engagement model and it definitely has one of the top tier customer support teams as well. I don't think I have ever waited more than 5 minutes to get the information I need or get help with an issue. They are incredible and I aim to model our customer service department after them.

    Glance
    Glance, while lacking some features of its competitors, is easy to use and standalone. Support for this application is dedicated to it and you can get near immediate support. This was key given the demographic of our staff.

    I used Zendesk briefly but found it difficult to navigate — I often couldn’t tell what was going on or how to simply reply to a ticket. In contrast, Intercom is much more intuitive and user-friendly. Its clean interface and support for multiple communication formats like emails, posts, and banners make client communication clear and efficient.

    Return on Investment
    Glance
    • Glance has reduced the amount of time an agent spends on a single call by nearly 30%. This reduction in time has helped us attend to more customers and more quickly.
    • The speed at which our agents picked up this tool speaks to the ease of use and integration of Glance.
    • Overall, this has helped our team managers train their teams on the product more efficiently.

    • Since we implemented Fin AI in February, we have been able to support customer queries during non-business hours. This is a game changer. Fin has brought down response times and is also extremely capable of handling complex queries from our customers. We have seen closure rates go down by 24-30 hours, which is quite phenomenal.
