The Front alternative that doesn’t hide essentials behind upgrades
Front gates core features behind expensive tiers. Hiver includes AI, omnichannel support, and integrations on every plan — without forcing plan upgrades.
Trusted by 10,000+
teams globally
1,000+ teams migrated from Front to Hiver.
Here’s why they made the switch.
Modern UX
The interface is intuitive, and most teams go live within an hour.
Seamless Gmail integration
Replies, statuses, and assignments sync both ways. Send from Gmail, see it in Hiver. Send from Hiver, see it in Gmail.
AI on every plan
Copilot, Agents, Insights, and AI QA included. No add-ons. No usage caps.
Surface account health & churn risk
Teams see account health and churn risk, as surfaced by AI from past interactions, which guide their responses.
Pricing that doesn’t jump
Plans start from $25/user. The features you need to run support don't move tiers as you grow.
24/7 support and onboarding included
24/7 support, a dedicated CSM, and onboarding included with every plan at no extra cost.
Cluttered and unintuitive
Teams struggle to find basic actions and adapt to the layout. Users often report UX related issues and bugs.
No bi-directional Gmail sync
Replies and status from Front don't sync back. Threads fork, context gets lost.
AI locked behind add-ons
Every AI feature is an add-on. Usage-based pricing makes every invoice a surprise.
Ticket-centric visibility
Front lacks account-centric visibility. Critical insights stay buried in tickets and systems. Agents reply without the full picture.
Pricing spikes fast
Workflows, dashboards, and core analytics live in $65–$105 plans. Renewal hikes are often steep.
Pay extra for onboarding and support
Implementation and dedicated CSMs are paid add-ons or reserved for top tiers.
Built for the high-stakes support that demands coordination across teams, tools, and channels
Collaborate across teams, tools, and channels
Manage escalations and handoffs with shared visibility and context across teams, tools, and channels–private notes, unified channel timeline, internal Slack threads, and conversation history keep everyone on the same page.
Deploy AI Agents and workflows for complex requests
Most AI stops at simple deflection and guesswork. Hiver AI and workflows are built for the hardest inquiries. It responds with answers grounded in your support docs, conversation history, and customer data from every tool that matters–so that every response is precise.
AI beyond deflection–assist teams, ensure quality, and uncover insights
Hiver AI doesn’t stop at deflection — it assists your team with responses, turns resolved conversations into help center updates, checks quality across every interaction, and surfaces exactly which conversations missed the mark and which agents need coaching.
Eliminate blind spots with account-level context
Never walk into a support conversation without customer context. Everything your team needs to know — account health scores, churn risk triggers, conversation history, and CRM data gets surfaced the moment you pick up a conversation.
Most platforms treat AI as a bolt-on. We don’t.
We designed Hiver around one idea: AI should be at the core of complex support — capable of taking on the hardest requests and woven into how teams work every day. If AI is truly core, it shouldn’t be an add-on.
It’s why every plan includes it.
Getting started is easier than you think. Go live in under an hour.
Handle the hard requests, right from day one
Bring all your channels, tools, and support docs in one workspace. Collaborate with teams and manage complex requests, right from day one.
We help set it up for you
While most teams set it up themselves, we generally assign a dedicated specialist to help with the entire setup like workspace, automations, AI, and dashboards — even if you’re in trial.
Get 24/7 support and enablement
We don’t disappear after you go-live. Your account manager is in it with you — 24/7 support, best practices, and hands-on training when your team needs it.
