| Pricing | Not verifiable from the vendor page — Gorgias's pricing page did not render prices on 2026-08-27; competitor-authored 2026 write-ups report a Starter tier at $10/month for 50 billable tickets (unconfirmed) · free tier: Free trial available via 'Sign up free' on gorgias.com; trial length not published in a verifiable form | $0 — pay-as-you-go keeps the same free allowances then meters overage from $0.0000500/event (1–2M events) · free tier: $0 forever, no credit card: 1M analytics events, 5,000 session recordings, 1M feature-flag requests, 1,500 survey responses, 100K error-tracking exceptions and 10GB logs per month; unlimited team members, 1 project, 1-year data retention, community support only |
| Pricing model | Ticket-volume subscription (never per agent) plus usage-based AI resolution charges | Usage-based, metered per product (no traditional tiers) |
| Best for | Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento or WooCommerce DTC brands with moderate and predictable ticket volume who want order lookup, refunds and cancellations executed inside the ticket, run more agents than tickets (seasonal or part-time staffing), and will actually use revenue attribution and pre-sale shopping assistance. | Engineering-led seed-stage SaaS startups under 1M events per month that want analytics, session replay, feature flags and experiments from one vendor at $0, and have at least one developer comfortable installing an SDK and configuring a reverse proxy. |
| Avoid if | Avoid Gorgias if your volume spikes hard at BFCM and you need a predictable bill — you pay per ticket beyond the included pool and again per AI resolution; if phone is your primary channel, since Voice is a volume-priced add-on flagged as weak; if you sell mainly on Amazon, eBay, Walmart or TikTok Shop, where eDesk's marketplace inbox fits better; or if you are not on a supported e-commerce platform, in which case a generalist helpdesk will be cheaper. | Avoid PostHog if the daily users of the tool are non-technical founders, PMs or marketers — the learning-curve and confusing-UI themes account for hundreds of negative G2 reviews — or if you need guaranteed responsive support early, SSO and audit logs on a startup budget, or more than one project without paying. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
