Intercom itself is great, although it's geared more towards SAAS than e-com, it still provides more value than Gorgias imo. The actual integration however is pretty poor, lacks features and the worst part is it really slows your site loading times down by a considerable amount. Fix the loading issues and its probably a 4 or 5*

In a few clicks, I had intercom installed and live on my store. Was able to have my store's chat and help email all go into a single place. My customers can even check their order status on the intercom widget on my site so not as many customers are asking for help with order status.

The intercom app is great in general and can be integrated simply on most of the basics Shopify websites / themes and it's good for conversion if you can use it properly (we mostly use the live chat functionnalities). The pricing is a bit weird and it can get expensive if you keep all the contacts but it's easy to adapt to different kind of scenarios. *If you have a custom theme or web app or if you don't want to use the default intercom themes you might have to do a bit of development work in order to make it work seamlessly and efficiently but it's nothing to complicated and their doc is good enough.

App doesn't even successfully load/install/connect. I'm receiving an error message stating they are experiencing technical difficulties.

The app itself is great and integrates nicely. We're huge fans. However, the latency of the app is the real shame and is why it doesn't get 5 stars. This is by far the slowest tag to load at over 2700 ms! This definitely needs to be improved.

It does not work. The intercom people are very nice to continue extending my free trial but I have been waiting for over 2 months for this integration to be fixed. The existing customers in Shopify do not sync with the app. If you do not have Shopify premium, you cannot export a lot of the relevant information to be uploaded into intercom. That data such as user created date, etc. is the benefit of intercom, but we can't access any of it bc the integration doesn't work for previous customers.
