“Lack of Content Calendar and Spacing Issues Affect Intercom’s Email Functionality”
Overall, I like Intercom as a communication tool with customers, but it is severely lacking in the email space. We use it extensively to send outbound communications to customers, and it prevents us from doing that efficiently. The email creation tool is user-friendly; however, the spacing is off sometimes within our emails. It'd be nice to clean that up. Additionally, the inability to see from a high-level overview of when email communications are scheduled is extremely frustrating. I'd rate it higher if we could get emails, banners, etc. in a content calendar within Intercom.

Intercom Helpdesk Likes & Dislikes
How the UI and workflows are simple to use
I like that it makes it easier for our teams to communicate directly with customers. I like that we can also tag groups and individuals to send highly segmented communications.
flexibility
How the ticket properties can be confusing to add and interact. Also, how the email look like for the customer when we are dealing with tickets
Email scheduling is not user-friendly. On more than one occasion (due to user error), an email went out when we were not planning it. If there were a calendar with the dates of scheduled emails, it would be so much easier to use. The email creation tool is also limited. The spacing doesn't look nice, and it'd be nice to have the ability to customize the spacing.
