Gorgias: AI Helpdesk & Chat

This platform worked very well. They assisted us in setting up the AI agent functionality which took several weeks but turned out fantastically. Then they changed something, likely they degraded the LLM to save money. Suddenly our agent went from solving 95% of issues to failing in 100% of the cases. For example, it forgot what kinds of products we sell and started recommending unrelated items that we don't carry. It stopped being able to follow the logic that the Gorgias team wrote and so could no longer edit or cancel orders. It started promising things to customers that we cannot do. I've been trying to get in touch with support for 2 weeks now with these issues. I've tried reaching out to the team who built the Agent for me, but they don't offer support. I've tried working with their L2 support but response times are well over 36 hours and the issue is complicated enough that asking and answering questions with days between responses is never going to adequately identify the problem. I tried their regular chat support and they told me the code was sloppy and should be deleted- but they wrote the code. I'm left with no choice but to disable the agent because it's frustrating my customers with irrelevant responses, or worse promising that we will do something that we simply can't. It's very disappointing to see Gorgias opt to not support their product and to cheapen the service to this point. The few months of functioning AI Agent definitely convinced me of the value of this kind of thing. I'd be willing to pay close to a regular full time salary. But the Gorgias system isn't the right one because it's not supported. I know I'm not the only one with this problem. During the period I've been trying to get support the Gorgias support team has had to remove their own chat widget because they are being overwhelmed with requests. This is likely due to the failure of their system.
Hello team, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand how disruptive has been, and want to apologize for the frustration it caused to you. Please know that we take issues like this seriously. Our team has been actively investigating the behavior you reported, involving both our Level 2 Support and Engineering teams, and we’re actively flagging the necessary improvements based on your needs and feedback. While AI can be sensitive to configuration and data changes, it’s on us to ensure those issues are identified and addressed quickly and with the right level of support. We also recognize that the support experience did not meet your expectations at certain points, particularly around response times and continuity. That’s something we’re actively working to improve, and we appreciate you calling it out. We’re continuing the conversation with you directly to resolve the remaining items and make sure there’s a clear path forward. If you’re open to it, we’d like to regain your confidence and ensure the AI Agent delivers reliable, safe, and accurate outcomes for your business. Thank you again for the honest feedback and helping us improve.
If i could give zero stars I would. Absolutely not "easy to set up" like I was sold on the initial sales phone call
Hi, Goldie Swimwear team. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations. Gorgias is designed to be self-onboarding-friendly, and while many customers are able to get set up quickly, we understand that this can still feel overwhelming depending on your needs and familiarity with the product. This is why our Support team is at everyone's disposal, to help you if you get stuck. We're sorry to see you did not get in touch with us and shared your struggles, as I am sure our agents would have been more than happy to help. We appreciate you sharing this feedback. We will make sure to continue improving our onboarding resources and make the platform feel less intimidating.
We recently encountered a billing issue with this app where we were overcharged $780 on October 24th, and we are still waiting for the refund to be processed. While mistakes can happen, the delay in resolving the overcharge is concerning. I’m sharing this so other users and businesses are aware and can keep an eye on their billing statements. I hope the team resolves this soon and improves the refund process moving forward.
Hi team, Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand how concerning billing discrepancies can be and appreciate you flagging this. The overcharge you mentioned was identified quickly as part of a broader infrastructure change, and a full refund was approved by our team right away. Unfortunately, because this refund is being processed through a different billing system, the delay this caused was less than ideal. We're consolidating internally to figure out avenues which will help us expedite similar requests in the future. Overall, we appreciate your feedback and the patience while we got this resolved.
My contact form has been down for more that one day, emailed twice the support team and I got strictly NO answer from them. Overall the app is pretty good, but when something goes wrong, them it seems will not be there for you (except useless AI automatic responses).
Hi team, we're really sorry for the delay in support and the frustration this caused. Our technical team looked into the issue and worked with you to get it resolved. One of our managers will also get in touch with you soon to confirm everything is working as expected. Thank you so much for your patience here!
I cancelled the service and they still billed me $900. They are refusing to refund the money even though it was cancelled before the renewal!
Hi team, we're truly sorry for the confusion and any frustration caused here. We’ve looked into the situation and have processed your refund. Someone from our team will be in touch directly to confirm everything is resolved.
How ironic that a so-called CX app is giving me the worst customer experience ever. Our team has been reaching out for help since last month, and no one has responded. I’ve now sent two emails 48 hours ago regarding the outrageous $726 USD charge on my card. NO RESPONSE again. This charge was made without any prior notice or alert about a plan upgrade. That is unacceptable. I expect an immediate refund. On top of billing issues, the AI responses are a disaster. When there isn’t enough information, it fabricates random answers that only frustrate our customers. Plus we've been submitting multiple feedbacks to the AI responses, and no changes, same repsonse again and again. Worst of all, the lack of real support: you get bounced from one AI response to another, then finally to a person who passes you along again and promises a fix, but never follows through. This isn’t customer service. It’s avoidance.
Hello team, thank you for sharing your feedback here! We apologize sincerely that your query wasn't addressed as an urgent matter. Our team was on a company retreat last week, which is why our replies have been slower than usual and our service has been limited. We're back in full force this week! The case has now been escalated to our Billing team. For direct access in case of any future billing-related issues, please feel free to write directly to [email protected]. Regarding the AI Agent issues you've mentioned, an agent will reach out to you via email promptly to assist and identify any mistakes or areas for improvement in its setup, ensuring it provides value to your business. Additionally, a manager reached out to you via email to discuss the issues you've been experiencing with our service in general. Thank you once again for working with us. We look forward to improving your impression of Gorgias!
the most expensive app we have ever used, just use shopify chat, you can configure the exact same.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand pricing is an important consideration, and our goal is to deliver value that goes beyond basic chat functionality.

Your input helps us continue to improve and deliver more value.
Looks terrible, cheap and chaotic, not as advertised at all. Cant login, no email with PW reset is sent, customers are waiting.
Hi there, team. Thank you for your feedback! For the way Gorgias looks, we always advise booking a demo before subscribing, so you know exactly what our helpdesk looks like and whether it works for your team and business. We also have tons of learning materials that can help you acclimate. As for your password reset email, I can completely empathize with how frustrating it must be when things don’t work as expected, especially when your customers are waiting. If you haven’t already, please check your Spam or Junk folder for the password reset email, as these messages can sometimes be directed there. If you're still unable to log in or facing other issues, our support team is available 24/7 and ready to assist you directly. We’ve reached out to you via email and are always here to help. We want to ensure that everything's working smoothly for you!
Impossible to get in touch with their support. Too much AI and automation sometimes doesn't work :)
Hey EzSpace, we're sorry to hear about your experience! You can reach our Support team through both Chat and Email. We use AI to help get the necessary information or troubleshooting steps to you faster, so you don't have to wait for the Support team if it's something easily solvable. If our AI Agent isn't quite satisfactorily replying to your questions or can't sort out your issue, you can always ask it to hand over to a human, and it will do so. Then, our team will jump in to support! We've also reached out to you via email to provide further assistance, and hope we can turn your experience around.
Aplikacja co najwyżej średnia, a na polskim rynku mało użyteczna. Rezygnacja z subskrybcji oczywiście nieintuicyjna, a pomoc ze strony obsługi polega na tłumaczeniu, że zwrot pieniędzy jest niemożliwy. Nie polecam
Hey there team, we really appreciate your feedback. We're sorry to hear you didn't find Gorgias useful for your Polish market. We'd love a chance to check in and see what was lacking - our Support team would be happy to see how we could have helped make your experience better. As for cancelling your subscription, while we don't offer refunds per our MSA, there's a cancellation button on your Billing & Usage page that lets you cancel your subscription anytime.
App is very expensive.
Hi Egendesign! We appreciate your feedback and understand that pricing is an important factor when choosing the right solution for your business. Our team has reached out to offer alternative plan options and we invite you to hop on a call with our Billing team to explore the best plan that empowers your business. We’d love to work with you to find the best fit for your needs! 🙏🏼
The service lacks a proper spam filter. I can’t block email addresses or mark emails as spam. Additionally, I’ve been getting charged twice for months, paying €160 monthly instead of the expected amount. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend it.
Hi Team Hauttief! We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your feedback. Regarding the spam tickets, Gorgias mirrors your email inbox, but we recommend enabling the Auto-Close Spam Emails rule to better manage irrelevant emails. We sent you more details about this via email to help you improve the handling of spam tickets. As for the billing issue, our team has reached out with a detailed explanation and is assisting you further. Thank you for the opportunity to address your concerns!
Our account was billed even though we already canceled it.
Hi Solarhandel24 team, We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. We’ve reviewed the situation and are taking steps to make things right. Please check your inbox for further details, and feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions
stay away. nothing works - waste of time! support is horrible!
Thank you for your feedback, Titan! We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. We value your input and are committed to making things right. Our team has reached out to you via email with a solution and to offer further assistance. We hope to have the opportunity to turn your experience around.
Review stars is based on SUPPORT TEAM only! Its fairly seamless to install. Seems ok but have only recently installed. But the experience with their help desk is absolutely terrible today. Started off with 'Joeferson' who was somewhat a help with delayed responses. Then Sharmaine comes in after 30 mins saying she needs a min to catch up. ok no problems, thinking we only got 1 step in so wont take long. 25 mins later I ask if she is still there with a reply so basic it was ridiculous. Replied with the obvious of 'yes I have'. I ask has it really take an hour for you to tell me the code needs to be on every page i was it installed? (face palm). The asks me for a screen shot of the theme where I installed the code... ummm its not installed on the theme, surely you should know this? she replied with 'yes the content section, my bad!' wow... just wow. anyway a hour later she replies saying it to complex for them and they need the email team to do it, but dont worry, the team will continue trouble shooting! Over an hour wasted only to be told its to complex. Mind you this is only for the control center to be added to the website (what should be a simple issue). for an app that came recommended from my business coach, I think ill be asking for new recommendations because the support team they have on today don't know left from right. I dont normally leave reviews, especially like this one. I know most app support teams jump from customer to customer but oh my gosh. Extremely disappointed.
Hi there! We regret the poor experience you had due to the delayed response time, and we apologize for any inconvenience this caused.

The customer support at this "customer support" software is comically bad. I have been using this software for almost five years and can not wait to get away from it.

terrible customer support! nobody answers!!! it is not working properly and it's been a week and I am yet to get any help at all!!!

Our team is dedicated to providing you with the assistance you need, and we appreciate your patience during this time. Thank you once again for bringing this to our attention.

We had high hopes for Gorgias. But key integrations they said they had simply did not work. We were told repeatedly the issues would be resolved, but after weeks we had to abandon. Further, the phone queue functionality is extremely limited. If phone service matters, do your diligence - this likely isn't the service for you. You can't prioritize agents, adjust queue roll times, offer call backs, etc. - pretty basic stuff for any operation, large or small. They have some nice features and this may work for small/niche applications, but it's just not ready for prime time if you truly are a multi-modal shop. Finally, beware the trial - they charged us up front and offered credits in subsequent months. When the platform didn't work as promised, they refused to refund the up front cost despite the fact that we never used the credits. Not a huge deal -the real cost to my business was the time, effort and expense of employees to implement a service that didn't live up to the hype, but it's reflective of a poor approach to clients/accountability.
Hello, Team. We appreciate you taking the time to leave your detailed feedback. We're genuinely sorry to learn that this is your impression. We would never want to see any of our clients leave with a bitter taste in their mouths. Your satisfaction is our top priority and this surely is not what we would like to hold ourselves to when it comes to the quality of our overall service. What you mentioned in the first part of your review is something that will be relayed to the dedicated teams as is definitely a learning opportunity for all of us. Concerning the Billing aspect, we do, however, keep everything perfectly transparent, providing the full information at the very beginning of your service with us. This being said, we are always ready to discuss any point of the Terms and Conditions of our Service with complete honesty and in full detail. We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share your review, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors. 🙏
