- Is Helpefi suitable for both customer support and IT service desk?
- Yes. Helpefi is built as a unified platform for customer support and ITSM. Optional Service Desk add-on adds incident, change, problem, and service catalog management — so you can start with one queue and expand without migrating to a different product.
- Which platforms can I migrate to Helpefi?
- Helpefi provides dedicated migration playbooks for Zendesk, Freshdesk, Intercom, Help Scout, and Freshservice. Each guide covers ticket export, field mapping, automation remapping, parallel run, and DNS cutover.
- Does Helpefi offer a free trial?
- Yes. Start a 14-day free trial with full platform access — no credit card required. During the trial you can connect email, invite agents, configure SLAs and automations, and evaluate AI Copilot with your own knowledge base content.
- How does Helpefi AI pricing compare to Zendesk or Intercom?
- Helpefi AI Copilot is available as a flat monthly add-on or included on Professional and Enterprise plans. Unlike Zendesk Advanced AI (per-agent) or Intercom Fin (per-resolution), Helpefi pricing stays forecastable as your team grows.
- Can I run Helpefi alongside my existing helpdesk during migration?
- Yes. Set up a parallel workspace, forward a subset of email, and keep your legacy system read-only while you validate SLAs, automations, and agent workflows. Most teams complete the parallel run within two weeks.
