When Intercom may be a better fit
Intercom offers several things Resool doesn't today. It may suit you better if you need:
- A public, multilingual help center and multibrand Messenger
- Phone support with Intercom's own phone channel, or AI that works with another helpdesk such as Salesforce
- Product tours, checklists and in-app banners for onboarding users in your product
- HIPAA support, or the team interface in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese or Spanish
