Where each one falls short

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

Gorgias

  • No published pricing; customers must sign up or contact sales
  • Ticket volume limits range from 50 to 5,000 per month depending on plan
  • Pricing model not transparent; described as scaling with volume

HubSpot Service Hub

  • The free tier is capped at 2 users
  • Professional carries a one-off onboarding fee of $1,500, and Enterprise $3,500, on top of the seat price
  • Seats are $90 a month billed monthly against $100 billed annually on Professional, so the annual commitment is not the cheaper option per month
  • AI features run on monthly credits, 500 on Starter and 3,000 on Professional, which do not roll over
  • Extra credits cost $0.010 each once the monthly allocation is spent
