Questions
BonusFlow vs Help Scout, common questions
Is BonusFlow a good Help Scout alternative?
For teams that want their shared inbox, helpdesk, CRM and projects in one EU-hosted tool, with a genuine confidential tier and free migration, yes. BonusFlow is built around the same shared-inbox workflow, with more of the operation included and your data kept in the EU.
Can we migrate from Help Scout for free?
Yes. We import your mail history, contacts and signatures from Help Scout and have you live over a weekend, at no cost.
How is pricing different?
BonusFlow includes tickets, CRM, projects, chat and AI triage in one plan from €69/mo, rather than charging for them as separate products or add-ons. See the pricing page for details.
Where is our data stored?
In the European Union (Germany), under GDPR, which is often the deciding factor for teams moving away from US-hosted tools.
