Gorgias
Gorgias is one of the easiest platforms I've used, as it was easy to navigate. You can customize your views so you can easily track them. The shared views are also specific and convenient. The search button is also one thing I like, as it easily shows what you're looking for with just keywords, email addresses, or any information.

SugarCRM
The idea of Sugar Serve, is similar to SugarCRM, so I feel more comfortable implementing it, thanks to having used SugarCRM in the past. It allows us to change and adapt the design to be able to use it according to the needs of my department and according to the goals of our company. It is a great help to have the customization that Sugar Serve offers us. If we want to connect to an external service, we just contact our IT staff to develop a module that connects internally via API.

Pros
Gorgias
  • Tagging- the tagging system was a great way to stay organized.
  • Rules- when you have 49 inboxes implementing rules on when to fire a macro or auto tag is necessary and Gorgias’ UI was easy to understand and execute.
  • Integrations- I had to integrate with dozens of inboxes many times using aliases and most of the time Gorgias was able to help.

Cons
Gorgias
  • Rules are powerful, but clunky, showing them to others can put them off as it looks "easy to break" because of their messy nature.
  • Pricing seems to be increasing due to the inclusion of more advanced AI that currently does not provide value.
  • Macros could really use contextual support, or a hotkey system to make it easier to pick highly used ones that aren't in the top 3.

SugarCRM
  • The interface that works with other systems is not ready, it lacks extensibility by default.
  • It necessitates the presence of a responsible someone with some programming skills.
  • The problem is especially noticeable with custom objects. Elements that should be removed remain, or an error occurs, making it a bit useless.

Usability
Gorgias
Gorgias is still by far most the most complete customer service tool to handle multiple responses and channels at a single umbrella without the needs of opening multiple tabs and sometimes will even make us missed some messages what supposed to be taken care of at a timely manner

We selected Gorgias from Zendesk based on its Shopify integration. Given how many stores we were managing the team needed to quickly find all of a customer's information in an email. We preferred it to Zendesk. However, now that I use intercom I have many more features such as surveys, topics, extensive reporting, auto tags, and series I prefer intercom for my work now
