Our verdict

Choose Gorgias when ecommerce order context, Shopify depth, and ticket-based pricing match your DTC support model — not for generic B2B helpdesk or ITSM. Compare Freshdesk or Zendesk Suite for non-ecommerce omnichannel helpdesk. Do not force-rank against live-chat or ITSM peers. Scores reflect first-party documentation as of 2026-08-18 — not hands-on product testing. Confirm current packaging, minimums and usage rates on the vendor site before purchase.

Best for

  • Shopify and DTC brands needing order-aware support in one inbox
  • Ecommerce teams where ticket+AI pricing beats per-agent seat math
  • Support leaders who want refund/edit-order workflows native to storefronts

Not ideal for

  • Non-ecommerce B2B helpdesk buyers
  • ITSM / internal IT service desk
  • Teams wanting simple per-agent SMB pricing (Help Scout, Zoho Desk)

Bottom line

Ticket-based: Starter $40/mo (50 tickets); Basic $77/mo annual. Not per-agent pricing — overage and AI bundles affect TCO. 7-day trial.
