Alternative to Richpanel
A focused Richpanel alternative when your team lives in support email on Shopify.
Clearbox is built for Shopify brands that need a shared inbox with Shopify customer and order context—not a full portal-first rollout—plus assisted drafting to move tickets faster.
Why teams consider Clearbox
- Faster setup when the core pain is email throughput and duplicate replies.
- Email-first workflow with Shopify context next to each thread.
- Less surface area to configure compared to a broad helpdesk suite.
What you should validate
- Whether you truly need a customer portal versus better internal email execution.
- How many agents touch support@ daily and whether ownership is unclear today.
- Whether assisted replies would save time without adding risky automation.

FAQ
When is Richpanel a better fit?
Richpanel is strong when you want a customer portal, self-service flows, and a broader helpdesk surface around Shopify. Clearbox is narrower: collaborative support email with Shopify context and fast onboarding.
Does Clearbox replace a customer portal?
Clearbox focuses on how your team executes email support together. If your buyers primarily need a portal experience, validate whether your bottleneck is actually email throughput and internal collaboration first.
Can we migrate quickly from Richpanel?
Most teams connect their support inbox and start handling conversations without a multi-week project—especially if your core workflow is email with order questions.
