AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor, and additional usage. You pay upfront or in installments according to your contract terms with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. Usage-based pricing is in effect for overages or additional usage not covered in the contract. These charges are applied on top of the contract price. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before the contract end date, access to your entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Help Scout offers tiered plans that scale by included users, Inboxes, and Docs sites. The Free plan covers 5 users, 1 Inbox, and 1 Docs site at no cost. Standard, Plus, and Pro increase these allowances as your needs grow. If you exceed your contracted amount, you pay extra at your plan rate. The Private Offer lets you arrange custom pricing by contacting the vendor. All plans are billed on a contract basis, so you choose the tier that fits your team size and support channel needs.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What happens to my bill if I need more Inboxes or Docs sites than my plan includes?
You pay for added capacity at your plan rate. Each extra Inbox beyond your included amount costs a set monthly fee. Each extra Docs site costs a separate monthly fee. Only the additional Inboxes or sites are charged, not your base allowance.
What counts as one user for billing across the Standard, Plus, and Pro plans?
A user is a team member with a full seat in Help Scout. Standard and Plus each include 1 user, Pro includes 10 users. Light users let teammates view and collaborate without a full seat. Plus allows up to 25 light users, Pro up to 50.
Which allowances change as I move from Standard to Plus to Pro?
Each tier raises your included users, Inboxes, and Docs sites. Standard gives 1 user, 2 Inboxes, 2 Docs sites. Plus gives 1 user, 5 Inboxes, 3 Docs sites. Pro gives 10 users, 10 Inboxes, 5 Docs sites. All three allowances increase together as you move up.

Collaborative Inbox with Powerful Tagging, Team Features, and Automations
Reviewed on Oct 31, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Collaborative inbox for customer support with robust tagging, team features, and workflow automations. Internal notes help us discuss issues without involving the customer or having to pass emails back and forth, which also prevents the conversation thread from getting lost.
The analytics are also helpful in mentoring my team to hit our customer service metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
The HelpScout Docs are horrible. If you have multiple libraries, you cannot have a document reside in multiple places but instead need to create a copy in each repository. This is why we moved to a different documentation site.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I resolve internal customer questions about our finance systems and processes by involving the right SMEs when needed and guiding people to our documentation site so they can use self-service support.

Seamless, Human-Like Support Emails with Strong Behind-the-Scenes Collaboration
Reviewed on May 20, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Help Scout is that it doesn't look like a ticketing system to the end user. In my line of work, I manage relationships with Tier-1 global crypto exchanges and high-volume institutional partners. When we are handling a sensitive $10M settlement exception or running a complex KYC/AML onboarding workflow, communicating via a robotic "Ticket #12345 has been created" email sets the wrong tone. Help Scout allows our operations, legal, and compliance teams to collaborate seamlessly behind the scenes using internal notes and collision detection, while the external partner just experiences a normal, highly responsive email thread.
What do you dislike about the product?
The native reporting and operational analytics are a bit too basic for my needs. To get the level of operational MI I require—like granular partner health metrics, specific SLA breaches, or complex resolution time tracking—I usually have to export the data and build custom dashboards in Tableau or Google Sheets. It also lacks some of the heavy-duty, enterprise-level routing logic you'd find in a tool like Zendesk.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It centralizes our cross-functional communications. When we are migrating a token standard across 40+ exchanges, we have engineering, ops, and partner managers all needing visibility on the same communications. Help Scout acts as a shared source of truth that prevents duplicate replies and keeps the team aligned, which significantly speeds up our resolution times for settlement disputes and onboarding bottlenecks.

A solid ticketing system tool for communication via email
Reviewed on May 07, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most is the application interface, which is simple and contained within a single window. Unlike other similar applications that have multiple navigation menus and user account menus, everything here is so polished that it looks effortlessly simple. The labels are aligned at the level of the ticket title, where the visibility is excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited capability for a broader ecosystem, for example for calls and chat.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as an email ticketing system for communication with our customers.
