Gladly: AI Customer Support

Gladly is a great app and a vast improvement over the previous one we were using that begins with a G and ends with an S. The only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that we are a small team and Gladly is primarily designed for large / enterprise companies. We've made it work and are happy, but if you're a small team just keep that in mind, it takes some weeding through the irrelevant enterprise level features to get it optimized.

We just converted to Gladly and it was a very easy process to get the CRM set up and running. Highly recommended if you are in the market to streamline your customer service. All communication channels in one place, no tickets, just conversations. Agent adoption has been quickly and painless.

Update January 2026 - We've recently deployed Gladly AI across Chat, SMS, Email and Voice and we are very impressed with our resolution rates as well as the ease of AI management within the Gladly toolset.

Definitely recommended if you are looking for a human approach to AI / Automation.

Great app and connection with Shopify. We love the quick actions and the imagery and details that flow through to Gladly to help our CX team handle inquiries even quicker!

We use this app to bridge all of our channels - phone, email, chat and SMS together to create a more easeful customer experience. Gladly allows a full view of the customer profile and previous conversations creating better efficiencies and more insightful, meaningful customer conversations.

I really love that all channels are available in one platform as well as the history of communication for each customer in one thread. That makes it so much easier for us to look into different issues and see customer behavior, interactions, and notes. The Gladly support team is also very quick and responsive to any issues that come up. Some feedback I have is that it would be nice if forwarding was also available for social DM’s, if agent reporting was able to be broken down by channel and average (for example, emails/hr), if a Create Order action was available in Gladly, partial refunds were an option in Gladly, and if people matching was available for calls. But overall, Gladly has been great and we're confident more improvements will be made over time. Our team is loving it so far!

We love where this is headed! There could be more actions included (like cancel, duplicate, partial refund). The only functionality at this point is refund, and it's only for a full refund. It would be helpful to provide partial refunds, too. The recently added discount code function would be a huge win for us but there is a current bug adding an additional space to the code that makes the code impossible for our customers to use. Additionally, order notes was recently made visible. For us, this is not an advancement as those notes print on the order's packing slip. We utilize the order and customer timelines, and having those available within Gladly would be far more beneficial. We're confident this will eventually be included :)

Gladly is the best helpdesk in the game right now. It's incredibly easy for agents to use which immediately translates into a favorable customer interaction. Our work rate essentially doubled overnight and our response times were cut in half. Gladly doesn't have many of the out of the box integrations that other help desks may have, but I believe their product team listens to feedback and is continually pushing new features. Their customer service far exceeds Zendesk's.

Gladly allows us to give our customers the best experience possible while providing a system that is easy-to-use for agents and thoughtfully built. We have had a great experience with Gladly and want to give a huge shout-out to Melissa, our Customer Success Manager, for making our for journey better than we could have imagined. From launch to maintenance to optimization and planning, we have been very happy with our results and Gladly's continued support.

Our team is really happy with Gladly. The shift from tickets to a conversation-focused design is a game-changer, and the Gladly team has provided us with excellent support. The Shopify integration not as intricate as Gorgias, but Gladly's more advanced features make it a better fit for mid-size merchants. Some features do require custom app development. Would give 4.5 stars if I could.

Gladly has easily revolutionized how customer support is handled and the result is a prime experience for the customer. Having a timeline view and moving away from "tickets" has been a game-changer for us. The customer is at the forefront of incoming responses and easily prevents duplicate responses when customers reach out through different channels.
