THE DIFFERENCE

Why customers combine Intercom and NexReply

Intercom excels at omnichannel messaging and live chat, but is not primarily designed for deep data-driven email automation. NexReply fills that gap perfectly.

Intercom live chat and bots

• Brings live chat, in-app messaging, WhatsApp and social media together.

• Ideally suited to quick, direct interactions and self-service chatbots.

• Lacks the deep data integration needed to resolve complex operational emails 100% autonomously.

NexReply email automation

• Automates the complete email flow, where an average of 70% of e-commerce support questions arrive.

• Connects to your online shop, WMS and carriers in real time for 100% factually accurate replies.

• Saves support teams an average of 15+ hours per week by fully taking over repetitive back-office workflows.
