Kustomer is a great omnichannel CRM!

I love that Kustomer is so sleek and well-designed. It isn't clunky, or hard to use. It's really streamlined. The reporting is A+, it's very in-depth for not just the customers but also your team. It works really well in tracking team performance and productivity, as well.

PROS

I love the VERY in-depth reporting! No other HelpDesk or CRM has such thorough reporting. Having full visibility of the customer insights, help with retention and growth!

CONS

It's on the expensive side. They only take on companies that can purchase 8+ seats, so it's not suitable for smaller businesses.

Reason for choosing Kustomer

Kustomer's design won us over! It was again very sleek, the UI is really streamlined. UX is easy!

Reasons for switching to Kustomer

ZenDesk was incredibly clunky! The reporting was separate, it was not user-friendly, and the design was very dated.

Highly Configurable Customer Chat Tool

Overall it's a great tool for our customer support and in-app chat use case. They are generally responsive to issues that we have with the tool. Their SDKs leave a bit to be desired though.

PROS

Kustomer is a great tool for customer support and chat interaction. We were previously using Intercom but felt left behind as they started to focus more on being an inbound sales tool. Kustomer allows is highly configurable in terms of features/functions and in its integration with outside tools.

CONS

The web interface has a bit of a learning curve as it's not the most intuitive UI. Additionally, their SDKs can be difficult to integrate due to poor documentation, unusual integration patterns. Their iOS SDK is written in Objective-C which is quite dated at this point.

Reason for choosing Kustomer

Kustomer was the closest to our existing solution. The company seemed to be the most focused on product development of any of the other vendors we looked at.

Reasons for switching to Kustomer

Intercom seemed to be more focused on supporting the inbound sales use case for their product. Additionally, we wanted to be able to configure workflows into our support tool which Intercom did not support.

Great Tool for Customer Service and Help Desk

Its good tool as compared to other but they need good documentation that is easy to understand and learn about all the features.

PROS

I used it for customer service and help desk. I considered this tool after some analysis of big brands available in market. I would say the result were good and it helped us improving our help desk requirement. Conversation system is easy too.

CONS

Took some time to learn everything about this tool. My colleagues faced difficulty at initial stage but they grasped it after some time. Report export is slow.

Highly recommended for costumer services and support companies.

My overall experience with Kustomer has been great. It does have more pros than cons. I would highly recommend it to other peers.

PROS

I have been using Kustomer for over two years now and I've had a very good experience so far. It is very user-friendly. For instance, it saves recently viewed interactions so I can go back easily to any of them. Additionally, my top favorite feature is that it gives you the option to adjust the amount of time for you to be able to undo a sent email. Which is awesome! Also, being able to see your overall performance allows you to locate areas of improvement.

CONS

My only complaint would be that Kustomer shuts down due to inactivity after 30 minutes which sometimes is inconvenient because the research that needs to be done can take up that amount of time.

Intuitive, Easily Customizable, Kustomer has been a great solution for our company.

PROS

With Kustomer, personalization and customization is incredibly easy. Overnight we were able to set up chatbots, FAQ pages, contact forms, and other features we had been relying on our engineering team to create for us with our previous CRM platform. The team loves how tickets are centered around the customer so we have a full picture every time we need to help someone.

CONS

Filters for new searches can be a bit tricky to set up to ensure that you're not missing any customer communications. Reporting can also be a bit tricky to set up as there are a lot of parameters to filter through.

Reasons for switching to Kustomer

Twilio Flex required too much engineering effort in order to make improvements or triage bugs.
