Last updated on June 13th, 2023
What can Intercom plugins do for your Sales, Marketing, Product and Customer
Support?
Intercom has over 17,000 users, and is continuously growing. And with this
growth, it comes as no surprise that there are newly emerging and exciting
plugins to make Intercom even more of a multi-tool. These Intercom plugins are
become increasingly more popular, as they aid and improve different
departments in a company; Sales, Marketing, Customer Success etc.
I decided that it would be wise to investigate some of these Intercom plugins
a bit more, to discover why they were so perfect for a specific department in
a business. This is why:
Customer Support Managers
Upscope
Imagine having the power of viewing your customer’s screen in seconds? No more
will you have to ask, “Can you see the button on the right hand side”, or “If
you just scroll down, you’ll see the form you need to fill out”. Those
questions are now a thing of the past, as Upscope’s co-browsing Intercom
plugin shows you exactly what your customer is seeing in real time. In just
one click, switch from a conversation on Intercom to securely clicking,

Success Managers dream!

Survicate
One of the most important parts of customer support, is knowing how your
customers feel about your product, company and quality of your support. Having
a tool that allows you to collect actionable customer feedback, takes the
guesswork out of the picture. By using the Intercom plugin, Survicate, you’ll
meet your visitors’ needs with in-message surveys, feedback pop-up boxes and
one click answers, that’ll improve your conversion rate. Get to know your
customers better, and take further action to improve their satisfaction.

Meya
We of course had to include Meya in the list. The Intercom plugin that
strategically allows you to build commercial and personal live chat bots,
helping with day-to-day bot building tasks. Customer support teams can train
and host the bots, allowing for a human/bot collaboration. The bots listen to
the Intercom conversations and respond when they know the answer, instantly
improving efficiency for your customer service by adding more to the team. You
can even pause and unpause the bot, for when you or another member of the
customer support team are back in the office or back from lunch :).

Product Managers
Productboard
Building a product means nothing if you’re building the wrong product. What if
there was a way to build a product you were sure would be enjoyed, useful and
used? The Intercom plugin, Productboard, does exactly that, by importing any
part of an Intercom conversation that the product team should review. It helps
teams understand what users need, and what your team should prioritize
building next.
Understanding customer needs in order to develop and design features and
products has never been easier. Now, your customer support team and product
development team can focus their time and energy on the important things.

Multi-Team
Notion
Having the right actionable data to work from is one of the driving forces in
any company. Notion is the Intercom metrics plugin that allows businesses to
see the bigger picture. Different departments can share information, such as,
SaaS and sales metrics, marketing lead generation and product development.
With Notion, you can easily group metrics by team, product or audience, to
deliver the right stats, and even share charts on Slack! The reason why Notion
works as a multi-team platform, is because it puts all of a company on the
same page. Everyone knows where they are, what needs to be improved and allows
them to build strategies that will get them to the next stage.
Intercom plugins have become a set of essential tools that can optimise
productivity within your business. So, in short, by choosing the right
Intercom plugins, you’re not only improving one aspect of your company, but
improving the work and results from the different teams within.
