FyneDesk vs Hiver
A complete help desk without the per seat climb.
Hiver is a strong choice for teams that want to run support inside Gmail or connect many customer channels. FyneDesk gives growing teams a full help desk, AI, portal, assets, and workflow depth from a simpler starting point.
Where AI starts
The practical difference
Hiver is built around customer service collaboration, especially for Gmail based teams. FyneDesk is built for teams that need customer support and internal service work in the same system, with assets, projects, workflows, and AI included earlier.

Where each platform fits
- Choose FyneDesk if you want a permanent free plan for 3 agents, AI drafting included, and one workspace for tickets, assets, requests, and operations.
- Choose Hiver if your team must work directly inside Gmail, needs native voice or social channels, or depends on a much broader integration catalog.
- Hiver offers AI QA, topic intelligence, and customer intelligence in higher tiers. Those are meaningful capabilities, not features to hand wave away.

- IT and operations teams that need assets, service requests, and projects beside customer tickets
- Teams that want AI drafting on Free and Auto Resolve as they scale
