How they differ

Tidio is the cheaper way in, by about 20% on the entry plan.

Tidio publishes a free tier; Intercom does not, so trying Intercom means either a trial or a card.

Intercom charges per person and Tidio does not — the gap between them widens with every person you add, so team size changes the answer.

Intercom gives you longer to evaluate (14 days against 7).
