About
Gorgias
Gorgias has become the de facto helpdesk for scaling Shopify brands, and the reason is straightforward: it was built from the ground up for e-commerce, not adapted from a generic SaaS ticketing tool. Email, live chat, Instagram DMs, Facebook comments, and SMS all collapse into a single inbox, with full Shopify order context surfaced automatically on every ticket. The automation rules are where serious efficiency gains live. Most brands get 60% or more of tickets resolved without human intervention. It does get expensive as your support volume grows, and the analytics could be deeper, but for centralising the chaos of multi-channel support it remains the category leader.
Tidio
For Shopify stores that want live chat without the overhead of a full support team, Tidio punches well above its price point. Its AI agent handles the repetitive volume autonomously: order status lookups, return policy questions, and basic FAQs, so human agents only see the tickets that actually need them. Setup is genuinely quick, and the Shopify integration surfaces order data directly inside the chat window. The interface is clean enough that small teams can have it running in an afternoon. It's less feature-rich than dedicated helpdesks like Gorgias, but for stores not yet ready for that level of investment, Tidio is a smart starting point.
