The Best Front Alternative With AI-Powered Inbox
Discover why Front users are switching to BotDesk. Get advanced AI agents, fair pricing, and omni-channel support that scales with your growth.
Front is a Collaborative Inbox, Not an AI Agent
Front was built for the past. BotDesk delivers the AI-native speed, flexibility, and automation modern teams need to delight their customers.
Manual Triage
You still have to read, tag, and assign every email manually. It organizes chaos but does not reduce the volume for your entire team now.
Expensive Scaling
Front starts at $19 per user but quickly jumps to $59 for essential features like analytics and rules for your business starting today.
Weak Native AI
Front AI features are mostly drafting tools for humans, not autonomous agents that solve problems 24/7 for every single customer today.
Skip Front's Limits
BotDesk provides every feature you need to automate support effortlessly. Enjoy powerful AI tools without the complexity or hidden costs of others.
Autonomous Resolution
Don't Just Collaborate, Solve Issues
