- Which one is a better deal?

They're going after technical teams and growth-stage companies who want flexibility without paying six figures. Plain: At $35/seat, they're undercutting Intercom and Zendesk's mid-market plans but positioning above bare-bones tools like Crisp or Freshdesk's entry tiers.
