Pros and cons

Front

Pros

  • Feels like email for agents and like normal email for customers
  • Strong collaboration: comments, @mentions, shared drafts and collision detection
  • Scales from a 10-seat Starter plan to Enterprise with SSO, SCIM and custom roles
  • AI is optional and priced separately, so you can start without it

Cons

  • No free plan, and Starter is capped at 10 seats and one channel type
  • Costs climb quickly: Professional is $65 per seat a month billed annually
  • Copilot and Autopilot AI are extra unless you are on Enterprise

Hiver

Pros

  • Team keeps working in the Gmail interface they already know
  • AI Agents and Copilot are included rather than sold per resolution
  • 24/7 support on every plan
  • Clear path from simple shared inbox to SLAs, CSAT and portal

Cons

  • SLAs and CSAT require the $55 Pro plan
  • Monthly billing costs $10 per user more than annual
  • Two products (in Gmail and Omni) with different plan line-ups can confuse buyers
