### 󠀁[Much better Implementation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/much-better-implementation/)󠁿

 [danayster45](https://profiles.wordpress.org/danayster45/) September 3, 2016

Just wanted to come back and leave an excellent review for this plugin. Its a better
implementation then the one created by Intercom.io themselves. One thing that stands
out is the “Signed Up” date. This plugin correctly pulls the original sign up date
for the user whereas the one by intercom simply uses the time of the latest sign
in which is useless. Kudos!

Works perfectly, with features you can’t find elsewhere. |If you do live support
for your plugins or themes using intercom, this is a must.
