Intercom can be one of the best apps for your startup, but many people don’t know how to unlock its full potential with integrations and apps. Here’s a roundup of how Intercom can help your company, all the apps that can help you achieve your best customer response, and how to use UserVitals with Intercom to get more work done without the hassle.

What is Intercom?

Intercom is a business messaging platform used to connect customers with your company, often through a chat widget embedded in your site. This allows real users to get in contact with your support or customer service teams and easily get feedback on any issues, concerns or questions they might have.

On top of these chat widgets, Intercom also offers bots and apps, product tours and much more, including a help center and inbox. At its core, Intercom is a conversational relationship platform for users and companies, but it can also help with sales and marketing. As such, it can act as a single tool to sell to and support users all throughout their customer journey.

How Intercom Can Help You

The ease of Intercom can help you easily find out what needs to be worked on or fixed, and what might need to be prioritized in your next release. It can also boost customer satisfaction, and help you easily resolve any potential issues to better retain your customers--in turn creating better customer relationships throughout their journey with your company.

Intercom has an App Store that allows you to connect your team’s other platforms to Intercom to better share information and stay on top of tasks. This can take out some of the manual work of inputting information in multiple sources and in turn help you work more efficiently.
