Shared by Priyanka β€’ February 05, 2018

We've updated the names of our products to make Intercom simpler and easier to understand.
​


These new names are based on feedback from our customers and now better align with each product's core functionality.

In addition to new product names, we’ve also updated the names of our pricing plans:

  • Lite is now called Essential
  • Standard is now called Pro

There are no changes to functionality or price. Only the names are changing.

Our new two-way Slack integration makes it easy to respond to leads instantly from Slack.

Choose exactly what to be notified about in which channels so you can focus on your highest quality leads first. Then chat, qualify and close - all without leaving Slack.

Read our docs to find out more - it takes just a few clicks to install, or simply upgrade if you're using our previous Slack integration.

Shared by Priyanka β€’ February 01, 2018

Intercom can now help you schedule meetings with your leads and users. Send people a meeting invite through the Messenger or by sharing a personal booking link to let them select a time you're both free.

You can send an invite on behalf of yourself or a teammate (think SDR booking a meeting for an AE πŸ’Έ). Meeting participants will receive a calendar invite when a time is selected.
​

Get started by connecting your Google Calendar with Intercom and setting your availability. Check out this doc for more info and let us know if you have any questions.

πŸ“ˆ πŸ’°
We've combined two of Operator's qualification steps into one. Now Operator will ask for a lead’s contact details together with any qualifying questions you’ve set up:

You can also adjust when Operator asks for a lead’s contact details, so you can ask for email first, last, or at any point during qualification. We’ve seen the greatest impact by asking for email first, leading to a 25% increase in emails captured with just a 7% lower completion rate.

You can customize Operator's qualification skill in the settings here.

Shared by Priyanka β€’ November 21, 2017


We've revamped the webhooks dashboard to make it much easier to manage and debug your webhooks. See the status of all your webhooks at a glance, and click into individual subscriptions to see successful and failed attempts over time, recent notifications and any error responses.
​


We've also added the webhook Subscription ID to the request headers so you can more easily identify which webhook subscription a notification is related to.
​

Learn more about the changes on our developer blog or head to our webhooks docs.
