Is Sajama One right for you?
It is, if you want your whole team answering every channel from one inbox, for one flat price that does not grow when you hire. That is the team we build for.
If you need a large third-party app marketplace, deep workflow automation, or an enterprise sales process, the bigger platforms are built for that - and you should choose them. We would rather you pick the right tool than the wrong one.
Zendesk runs contact centers. If you need one inbox for every channel, $49 covers it.
