Five ladders, one flat fee.
Every other product on this page charges per seat and puts the good parts on a higher tier. Epkora is $20 a month for the workspace.
These pages use each vendor’s own published list prices, last read on 13 August 2026, and every one of them ends with a section on what that product does better than Epkora.

The difference
It is the pricing model, not the discount
Epkora is not a cheaper version of the same shape. It is a different shape.
Per workspace, not per seat
Pro is $20 a month however many people log in. Every product on this page multiplies its price by your headcount, so their bill grows exactly when your team is under most pressure.
The AI is not metered
AMI is included. No per-resolution charge, no session packs, no credit allowance. Four of the five products here bill their AI separately from their seats.
Nothing behind a tier
Live chat, tickets, the knowledge base, workflows, SLA policies and reporting are all on the free plan. Elsewhere those are spread across three price points.
Questions
How these pages were put together
- Where do these prices come from?
Every figure is the list price published on the vendor’s own pricing page, linked at the bottom of each comparison and last checked on 13 August 2026. Nothing is estimated. Where a vendor does not publish a rate — Zendesk’s per-outcome AI charge is the example — these pages say it is unpublished rather than quote someone else’s guess.
- Is the saving calculation fair?
It is their per-seat list price times the seat count, less Epkora’s $20 workspace fee. It uses their annual-billing rate, which is the cheaper one, and it excludes their usage-based AI charges and add-ons entirely. Both of those choices make the gap look smaller than a real invoice would.
- Why compare against that particular plan?
Each page names the rival plan it benchmarks and why. The rule is the cheapest plan of theirs that actually covers what Epkora Pro does — so Zendesk is compared at Suite Team rather than Suite Professional, and Freshdesk at Omni Growth rather than Support Desk Pro.
- Does Epkora really not charge per agent?
No. Pro is $20 a month for the workspace with unlimited seats. Adding an agent, a supervisor or a whole second shift does not change the amount. The free Plus plan has no seat limit either.
- Is the AI metered?
No. AMI is part of Pro. There is no per-resolution charge, no session pack and no credit allowance — which is the single biggest structural difference between this price list and the others on these pages.
- What is Epkora missing?
Every comparison ends with a section on what the other product does better, and they are not token entries. There is no telephony, no file attachments yet, no sandbox and no published compliance programme. If one of those is a requirement, buy the product that has it.
