Would love to be able to see which macro an agent used in conversation events. This was a feature at ZenDesk that I used to use all the time. It was very helpful since we have a large macro library and don’t have every one memorized. It would help with QA and training.
If a specific word(s) is mentioned in the conversation, be able to automatically assign a tag or apply a specific workflow
As well as Fin, we use subject line and keywords to sort our conversations into different inboxes depending on the content. I find that sometimes I can’t see exactly why a conversation was automatically sorted into a specific inbox and it would be useful to see what exactly triggered it. Dixa had this enabled.
Currently, when a pointer displays, it automatically dims the background to highlight the message, and the background becomes unresponsive while that pointer is shown.So there isn’t a setting to keep the background responsive while a pointer is active. This setting should be there.
Today, Workflows can auto-assign based on message content, conversation attributes, and company info you track, but they can’t auto-detect “this teammate already has an open ticket with this customer” and route the new ticket to them. Use case: When a new ticket is created for a customer, if a teammate already has an open ticket with that customer (matched by company name or domain), assign the new ticket to that same teammate automatically.Why it matters: This helps keep account continuity without relying on name mentions, and reduces the need for manual reassignment.
On Zendesk, you are able to personalise your CSAT a lot more than on Intercom. 3 main things I’d like to see change: Rating options: currently defaults to emojis from terrible to amazing. Having an option for Satisfied / Not Satisfied would be more appealing for our type of service. Being able to change from emoji’s to starts would be nice touch too. You are not currently able to add dynamic content/fields to the message. I want to be able to say : How did [insert teammate name] did today? And have the teammate name be populated by the name of the agent who was assigned to the conversation when it was closed. I would like to have a macro or a button which would easily enable customers to update their rating if they rating the agent by accident, or changed their mind once we rectified our mistake. This encourages agents to want to resolve things correctly for customers - whereas currently they can’t do much once someone has rated them and left a comment.
I would like to have the option to know how many conversations had assigned a team member in a specific timefrime. For example, by 9:20AM, X person had 3 conversations in their inbox
It would be very helpful to allow category change within the guidance editor.Often, I will find my guidance changes over time and needs to be moved category, but this is a manual process of creating a new guidance and copy/pasting content over. Not only for speed, this removes usage stats. While in alot of cases this will be necessary as the guidance scope will have changed you may not want to lose those stats if you have simply miscategorised a piece of guidance or slight change in wording reuqires a move to a more accurate category.
Would like the ability to use other analytics for the Help Center instead of Google Analytics. For instance, Fathom Analytics that focus more on user privacy.
Hi Team,When looking at views, searches and reports it is often hard see exactly when a conversation was started or closed as the default view is to show ‘Time since’ and display in either minutes/hours/days/months etc. It would be really helpful if this was configurable to be able to have the option to show the actual date and time as often I am trying to track down conversations based on when they started.
As of now there are limited attributes to define the conversation prioritization as per https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/6553774-balanced-assignment-deep-dive.CX score is a reporting metric that can’t be use as a sorting attribute. Already tried creating/using new CvDAs too but can’t be added to the sorting attributes. Being able to customize our own sorting attributes will allow us to revamp our conversation sorting to prioritize customers based on CX score and ticket count.
Notes can become very long, and copying and pasting to make edits or updates is time-consuming. It would be incredibly helpful to have the ability to pin a main note to each chat, with the option to easily edit it as needed.
Our support team offers support to our customers and our customer’s customer. That said, our customers are stored in our systems as users, but not all of our customer’s customers are stored - nor do we need to. However, we often need to send an SMS update to these individuals. In most phone systems, this isn’t an issue - they act just like any phone where we can send a text to a number, even if it’s not stored as a saved contact. We need the same ability for Intercom’s SMS functionality. We do not use the SMS channel for Outbound SMS, we only use it as a support channel.
It would be great to have a countdown timer in the call wrap-up banner. This will allow agents to clearly see how much time they have left to finish wrapping up so they are prepared for the next call.
In an IVR step where a customer can be given the option to request a callback or stay on the line and wait for the next available agent, we should be able to re-prompt the caller with the ability to request a callback every few minutes. However, every time we use a Reply Button path in the IVR workflow, it requires input from the end user. Thus, there is no ability for us to say “to request a callback, press 1. Otherwise, stay on the line for the next available agent”. Instead, if we want to offer the ability to request a callback every few minutes, the caller must always make a selection (like press 2 to wait on the line). Without making a selection after 3 minutes, the call will automatically end. This is a horrible caller experience. As of right now, we are basically given 2 options: only offer the caller the option of a callback once throughout the IVR, or prompt them over and over again - most of the time ending in the caller getting unintentionally disconnecting because they’re tired of pressing 2 to stay on the line. Ideally we should be able to configure how many times the Reply Button path repeats itself after no input and configure an option when no input made.
When there are multiple participants on a conversation, the inbox view loses the company name So when I’m scanning the inbox looking for that ticket from “Acme Corp” I can’t find it quickly, and I have to either search for it or open the multi-participant convo’s to see which one it is.
