What to test before choosing
Distinguish your marketing site from your logged-in product. Check where customer context, conversation history and staff workflows are essential.
Compare the cost of your actual usage
Check Chatbit pricing and Intercom's current plans for your expected volume. Compare included usage, how messages or resolutions are counted, required add-ons and the features available on the plan you would buy.
Use a trial with your own sources. A low entry price is only useful if the plan supports your real workload.
Moving from Intercom to Chatbit
Keep Intercom running for the workflows you still use. A Chatbit website pilot can be evaluated before making an inbox migration decision.
- List the current website pages, files, Q&A and instructions you want to keep.
- Create a Chatbit bot and add the approved sources. Match its tone and welcome message.
- Run your common questions and edge cases before changing the live site.
- Replace the website snippet when the answers are ready. Keep the old snippet available while checking the rollout.
