Widgion vs Drift: Support-First, Not Sales-First
Drift helps sales teams start conversations.
Widgion helps support teams finish them with clarity, speed, and the right tools.
Conversations Beyond the Funnel
Drift is optimized for sales enablement, not long-term customer care. From chatbots that qualify leads to workflows designed around conversions, it’s powerful but not for support.
Widgion flips that. We’re built from the ground up for customer support teams combining chat, shared inbox, HelpStack, and always-on AI in a way that helps teams solve, not sell.
