Intercom  Integrations and Plugins

On the API side of things, you’ll find that Intercom  connects with various tools such as

• Whatsapp
• Salesforce
• Marketo
  

Benefits

• The synchronization with third-party applications such as SalesForce or Jira, and of course the visualization is becoming cleaner and easier to use every time
• The way the UX is well done facilitates the onboarding of new employees
• Intercom is fantastic for both a lead generation tool and customer support tool
• keyboard-only navigation on Intercom that makes workflows much faster
• Native dark mode
• Easy to understand and operate
  

Drawbacks

Its drawbacks, on the other hand, are these:

• Limited options to manage multi-step conversations
• Response time of the support team
• The lack of a dashboard for creating reports in a more advanced way
• Some features are not so clear on how to use them
• High cost per chunk of customers for the tools individually
• Not much room for improvement
• Other sections (Reports,Contacts, etc.) still do not have dark mode, which is okay, since they're not used as much, but it would be perfect to get DM there as well
