Where each one falls short

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

Re:amaze

  • AI resolutions are metered per plan at 5, 10 and 20 a month, with each additional resolution at $0.85
  • The flat rate Starter plan at $59 a month caps responded conversations at 500
  • SMS, voice, multiple brands and a custom domain all require the Pro plan at $49 per team member
  • Departments, custom roles, shift management and satisfaction ratings are Plus only at $69 per team member
  • The 10% saving requires annual billing

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
