Why people switch
Why people switch from Intercom
- They pay for a full inbox/product suite but primarily need ticket output into GitHub or Linear.
- Intercom’s routing or export options force upgrades or custom work to get clean developer tickets.
- Automation that exists is platform-bound; teams want a headless API to plug into existing workflows.
- Costs and per-conversation or per-seat billing can spike as volume grows or teams scale.
