Built-in AI. No add-on or usage costs.

AI Agents for deflection, Copilot for drafting, and automated QA—all built in across plans.

Transparent, predictable pricing

Flat per-user pricing with all core capabilities and AI included in the $55/user plan.

Zendesk Alternatives
Zendesk

Teams operate in silos

When conversations move across teams, they turn into new tickets, forcing manual context transfer.

Complex rules, high overhead

Automations are form-based, hard to visualize and don't hold up when issues are complex.

Ticket centric visibility

With Zendesk, teams only get a list of tickets with limited account-level insights.

Poor support for slack

Zendesk lacks key features like bi-directional syncing and internal threads for collaboration.

Old school knowledge management

Zendesk lacks AI guidance for any updates. Teams spend hours maintaining the help center manually.

AI priced separately

Zendesk's AI Agent costs $2 per resolution. Copilot and QA are add-ons—$50 and $35 per user.

Usage-based pricing escalates costs

Essential features are gated behind plans that cost $115/ user. AI costs can scale fast with ticket volume.

Zendesk adds friction. Hiver removes it.

AI that speeds up your queue, without surprise costs

Let AI triage, route, draft replies, and automate resolutions from the moment you sign up. No metered “per-resolution” charges, no add-on pricing. Just faster support.

Every channel, one workspace

Manage email, chat, Slack, WhatsApp, voice, and socials from an intuitive interface. No clunky interface, no learning curve — just faster support.

Automations your team can set up without engineers

Build rule-based or AI-driven workflows in minutes. Assign, escalate, prioritize, and clean your queues without touching a script or relying on developers. Integrate with 100+ apps to unify customer context right inside Hiver.

Reporting that tells a story

Track response times, resolution trends, CSAT, and more with clear, customizable dashboards that show where you shine and where to optimize.

Stuck with an outstanding Zendesk contract?

Each Zendesk ticket is converted into a Hiver conversation with the subject line, initial message, follow-ups, any private notes and attachments.

Once we receive the data export files required for migration, most businesses can be migrated to Hiver in a few days. However, the exact time depends on the volume of tickets.

What does your CX tool really cost as it scales?

Most teams don’t stay on the base plan. As support teams scale, they add automation, reporting, AI,
and more agents. With Zendesk, those additions surface hidden costs. With Hiver, they don’t.
