Dixa

  • Entry pricing is 89 EUR per agent per month, which is high against comparable help desks
  • The AI agent is billed separately at 0.35 EUR per conversation on top of the seat price
  • Skills based routing and advanced automations require the Ultimate plan at 139 EUR per agent
  • SSO, custom user roles and auto redaction are Prime only at 179 EUR per agent
  • There is no self serve trial, and the vendor states every rollout is guided
  • Quality assurance and the AI co pilot are paid add ons on every tier

Homebase

  • Free Basic plan is capped at 10 employees and a single location
  • Paid plans are billed per location per month ($30, $70 or $120), so a multi-location business pays the rate again for each site
