  • They diverge on capability: Gorgias covers Omnichannel inbox, Groove covers Shared inbox.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Gorgias

  • Helpdesk plans are metered by ticket volume, scaling from 50 to 5,000 tickets a month rather than a flat per-agent fee
  • The AI Agent is billed separately per resolved conversation on every plan rather than included in the flat seat or ticket price

Groove

  • Billed per ticket at $1 rather than per agent, so support cost scales with how many customers get in touch
  • A minimum of 250 tickets a month applies, which is a $3,000 annual commitment before any usage
  • A quiet month still pays the 250 ticket floor
  • No mailbox limit is published
