- 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.
