Pros Easy to use and set up. You can also sign up for free. One of the best features is that you give it your webpage and it learns everything it can about your services and products and can answer queastions all day even when you are not avaliable. It's also great for use with diffrent languages. Cons The price is crazy. Even the smallest package is more expensive than most. Review Source LB Lauren B. Programs Coordinator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Program for Conferences!" August 12, 2021 5.0 This is a great software! My company loved it because we gave our attendees a personal experience as we logged in as ourselves. We were able to "say hi" to attendees while they were looking around the platform. This gave the attendees an "in-person" feel as if we saw them at an in-person conference. The analytics were great and we gained a lot of knowledge about our attendees and how we can improve our event for next time. Pros I loved the canned responses. We were able to answer our attendees not only quickly, but with the correct response as well. Users were able to gain analytics from the system about where our attendees were from and what type of computer or phone they were using. This helped when they asked us to troubleshoot some issues on our other platform. Users were able to see what attendees were writing so they could pre-empt the question and get the information over to the attendee faster. Cons The billing process starts when you order the software. This was difficult for us because one of our conferences landed in between the billing period. Therefore, it meant we would have to pay for 2 months of the program when we only needed it for one. We were able to speak with their team and figured out a solution which was great. Alternatives considered [Drift](https://www.capterra.com/p/227417/Drift/) Reason for choosing ChatBot Great price, easy to use, and great overall feeling.

Maybe once AI becomes better, I will enjoy using ChatBot more than talking to a person. Pros ChatBot allows you to ask questions without waiting for a customer service representative. It is instant. Cons I don't like how the ChatBot presents many drop down menus for a problem I may have. I want the ChatBot to be able to answer without me tailoring the responses for it. Review Source Azizah A. Office Management Telecommunications Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Ai chat platform with Chatbot" September 13, 2022 4.0 Pros The chatbot is not too demanding to use. After establishing a few encounters, you'll be well on your way to executing many more. It's simple to get started training the bot, and looking back on old conversations can reveal any problems with the answer sequence and easy to fix the wrong sequence. Cons The most glaring drawback of ChatBot is that it cannot deal with more complicated customer dissatisfaction scenarios, limiting its usefulness to website users with simple troubles only. Switched from [Freshchat](https://www.capterra.com/p/158117/Freshchat/) Freshchat is too expensive, with less feature offered compared to Chatbot. We make the switch mostly because of this reason.

Customer Operations III Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "CHATBOT Happy" March 5, 2026 4.0 It is great because it is excellent at understanding natural language and providing instant responses, which is vital in our industry. Pros Chatbot is a awesome tool because it is innovative, and easy to tailor our needs for clients who need to chat in about patients. Cons I dont have complaints on it so far. We've been using it for a while and the benefits have been pretty good Review Source CT Carlin T. Teacher Education Management Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Chatbot User friendly" June 2, 2025 5.0 Chatbot gives me more confidence in asking questions and getting my questions resolved and allows me to have less interaction with a human. No one is judging you on the questions being asked. Pros I love that the chatbot is 24/7 availability. Help increase customer response and interaction. Chatbot provides quick answers and reduces human interaction. Cons Chatbots can struggle with complex queries, in which can lead to inaccurate results or responses. No human interaction involved. Review Source RR Riley R. Legal Project Analyst Legal Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Chatbot Review" March 10, 2026 5.0 Pros It easy very easy to text and email friends, coworkers, and family. I like to use the chat feature very often. Cons It takes a while to learn how to use the chatbot feature which makes it hard to see the value for money for usage. Review Source Greg D. Owner Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "BotEngine combines the reliability of LiveChat with the functionality of a bot." February 8, 2018 5.0 BotEngine by LiveChat gave me the performance, reliability, and integration I needed from a bot application. Pros What I like most about BotEngine is it's reliability. BotEngine was developed by LiveChat (the most reliable chat application in the business) which means that it is a feature-packed application with solid reliability, dependable integration, and robust reporting. When I first became a LiveChat customer, I was looking for a platform that provided both manned and bot chat solutions. At the time LiveChat didn't have bots, because BotEngine was still in development. I was so impressed with LiveChat's product that I chose them anyway and used a variety of other applications for bots. When BotEngine was released, I was an instant customer. I built and deployed bots on at least four other platforms while waiting for BotEngine and every one of those platforms was problematic. Either they weren't reliable and would malfunction without warning, or they were free and then not free and then kind of free and then not, etc. I wasn't looking for a free solution as much as I was looking for a reliable one. BotEngine got it done. It integrates reliably with Facebook Messenger, Web Pages, Landing Pages, and more. It's easy to use and even offers helpful design templates to get you started. I'm a BotEngine customer for good. Cons What I liked least about this software was having to wait for it to launch. There were lots of other platforms out before this one. LiveChat took its time in development and it definitely paid off. Review Source Kudakwashe N. Software Developer Machinery Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Never miss any potential sales lead from your website" July 22, 2021 5.0 Pros Chatbot LiveChat is a very powerful plugin that every website needs. You will never miss any sales leads with this interactive and easy to install plugin. LiveChat Chatbot can be installed on website and it defiantly increase sales convention rate on your website traffic. If you are a developer you can also make extra money on they reward program. The best feature of LiveChat is that you can have multiple agents using the same account and also attending to many website clients at the same time. Cons It can online work when the website application runs live and not offline. So if a website is a pwa it wont work when running offline. Review Source Temitope E. Helpdesk Analyst Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect,effective experience." February 12, 2018 5.0 Pros SOCIAL MEDIA INTEGRATION : Livechat enable us place a chat feature on our Facebook fan page,thereby enabling our helpdesk agents respond to chats from Facebook,like they come from our website. TICKET REPORTING : The ticket reporting feature provided by Livechat shows us the number of tickets created by customers.While also giving us a breakdown on how many of these ticket were successfully resolved,how many were left unresolved,how many had positive or negative ratings etc This vital analytical information ,enable us measure the performance of our helpdesk team. Cons The pricing for its enterprise version is affordable for a big companies like ours,for smaller teams ; I dont think Livechat will be a smart choice financially.

Also can be programmed to provide automatic replies which is very easy to understand. Cons Sometimes it is too complicated to understand especially when it has to connect you to the actual person. Review Source HG Hristo G. owner and software developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Patbot for Windows PC by Langsoft, Switzerland" August 26, 2020 5.0 The chatbot can be used to occupy the customer while waiting in the waiting room and to answer questions the customer wants to know about your business. Pros Easy to use console application. The Patbot Dialogue System provides probable and accurate answers to questions. The answers are probable when the System does not have sufficient information to provide an accurate answer. For example, if we ask "Where are my trousers?", the answer will be "Probably in the wardrobe". Of course, the trousers can be also in the washing machine, hanged to dry after washing, etc. The dialogue with the System can be continued only if the user asks something or tells something, in writing. The System will not start the conversation first and will not continue the conversation by itself. The Dialogue System can remember the following user information, such as location of a key, medicament and money. For example, if the user writes "My blood pressure medicament is on the table.", the System will remember where is the medicament. If the user forgets where is his blood pressure medicament, the user can ask the System "Where is my blood pressure medicament?". The System will retrieve the information. This ability of the chatbot can be extended to cover any valuable information. Cons Improvement is an endless task, which every developer faces all the time. Reason for choosing ChatBot Nowadays, Online chatbots are used to engage the user in conversation and to provide information about your services, if the user asks what you offer. Your competitors will also know what you offer and they will soon follow suit. Your innovative services will no longer be new, because your competitors will also offer the same services and you will lose customers. If you want to provide information to your clients about your services and if you don't want your competitors to know what you offer, this chatbot is the best solution for you.

Nos permitió interactuar con los clientes que visitaban nuestras webs y darles ese empujoncito para que compraran. Cons Algunas opciones están muy limitadas, como la multirespuesta por ejemplo, y el diseño del flujo de conversación puede ser algo lioso. Es una herramienta que ayuda pero la calidad de los leads no es la ideal Switched from [Google Chat](https://www.capterra.com/p/175800/Chat/) Mayores opciones y personalización Review Source MS Micah S. Lead imaging supervisor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "ChatBot Review" August 27, 2024 5.0 Pros ChatBot saves an incredible amount of time and helps with planning and organizing. Can create multiple business ideas and plans in seconds that can sometimes just give you the creative mind to come up with a new plan. Cons Sometimes information is outdated. It does not do well with super up to date things if there is not enough information out on a particular topic. Review Source DH David H. Digital Marketer Online Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ChatBot which one to use" February 20, 2020 4.0 Have not seen much success using these bots. It may be my issue setting them up and using them. It is hard as I currently a one-man-band. Pros There are various Chatbots. I first start using in my various Affiliate Websites a few years pack. I bought a package for 3D A.I Chat Bot that I installed on different sites. I even created a website \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] to explain it and see if any one to have me install it on their website. Cons 1\] It claimed to be able to have websites with little traffic to increase web traffic. I never say that. 2\] I never been able to sell one of these chatbots. 3\] I been trying Manychat as well for Facebook Messenger Review Source FA Folashade A. Sales rep Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Livechat gives you all you need on your fingertip. " December 6, 2017 5.0 Faster helpdesk sessions especially with the knowledge base feature. Pros Simple and self explanatory interface which reduces learning time for new help desk agents, thereby saving the company precious resource and time normally directed towards training. Cons Maybe the pricing (enterprise) can be a bit cheaper than it currently is. I am sure businesses can easily find close substitute offering the basic livechat features for way less. Review Source SL Stephen L. IT Manager Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "ChatBot does the job!" August 1, 2019 5.0 Overall, I've been really pleased with ChatBot and feel it has taken our business to the next level. Pros ChatBot is fairly intuitive. Once you've setup a couple interactions, you are off to the races and can quickly roll out additional interactions. Training the bot is easy, and reviewing archives of past chats allows you to see where there are areas of weakness that needs to be addressed. Cons This is probably more of a weakness of LiveChat that utilizes ChatBot than the bot itself. The Bot was unable to answer a question and transferred the chat to a live rep. As I was formulating my response, I took too long so the chat was transferred back to the Bot. I was unable to intercept the chat and resume control. To resolve this, we just changed settings in LiveChat to get the rep more time to answer the chat. Simple change and simple fix. Review Source AY Anuolu Y. Sales Manager. Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "An helping hand." December 23, 2018 5.0 Chatbot reduced the amount of customer enquiry which our sales agents respond to at a given time.Most especially during the weekends,our Chatbot assistant does most of the “attending to website visitor’ task and accomplishes then effectively,bearing in mind that this is a bot and not an human. Pros I like how Livechat recently introduced us to Chabot experts,these experts assists sales teams like ours to design,build and deploy a chatbot assistant ,ensuring that our current chatbot is tailor made for our business and delivers guided conversational experience to our customers and website visitors alike. Cons Nothing to dislike as regards our use of Chatbot.It just keeps getting better. Review Source PA Pedro A. Director Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "valoro chatbot" April 12, 2023 5.0 Pros ChatBot lo ayuda a tener conversaciones similares a las humanas con clientes y clientes. El uso de un chatbot puede eliminar el trabajo de la oficina principal. Puede ser la voz de la empresa y múltiples sesiones de trabajo. Cons Mucho cuidado con el tono de voz que representará su negocio, ya sea suave, fuerte, etc. Hágalo lo más agradable que pueda para maximizar la interacción con el cliente. Review Source AC Anish C. CEO Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "CHATBOT Review" October 13, 2020 4.0 Chatbot was really a good option for quick and easy launch of chatbots. The features like Online Quick Chat conversation, Easy Avatar and Media customization, Good API Integration with FB Page, Website, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc., Good Readymade Templates, Quick AI Response to chats, Easy drag n Drop Chat Flow made it proper for any type of use. Pros 1\. Online Quick Chat conversation 2. Easy Avatar and Media customization 3. Good API Integration with FB Page, Website, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc. 4. Good Readymade Templates 5. Quick AI Response to chats 6. Easy drag n Drop Chat Flow Cons 1\. API Integration requires 3rd party subscriptions and access (eg: WhatsApp) 2. Chatbot preview gets changed and may differ platform to platform 3. Need to keep a regular check in to Chat Flow 4. Free Trial should include more storage/chat support Review Source AO April O.

Pros The ease of setting up of chat bot and the analytics to use in research to learn more about the customer.

April 20, 2025 5.0 Favorable and easy to use. I like the many different options chat bot offers. Pros Variety, ease of use and flexibility. Having AI to help really makes the difference.

Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Horrible product and horrible customer service" November 26, 2024 1.0 They have horrible customer service. I have been a customer with ChatBot for years and our account expired. I accidentally upgraded and requested to cancel with refund almost immediately. Did not even use any of the features at all. Of course they DECLINED to refund or even pro rate. Horrible. Do not use them. If this is how they treat their customers, then they don't deserve to be in business. Pros None. Horrible product, not easy to use, not functional, expensive and limited features, and most of all, horrible customer service. Cons They treated me (a loyal customer) poorly. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Professional chat bot tool that does so much more" October 4, 2021 4.0 Overall a very pleasant experience for me. I experimented with multiple similar tools and Chatbot stood out because of its professional look and feel (and also advanced feature set). While there are many advanced features, it's built with the beginners in mind as well, so that you can quickly get started and make it more advanced as you progress and learn more about the platform. This is a solid tool that boosted my on-site engagement and lead generation. Pros I like the combination of channels here: you can use Chatbot on your website, on Messenger, through Slack and you can even do a real live chat as well. Pretty cool for ONE tool. Instead of having to purchase multiple tools you can just get started with this. The interface is very modern and easy to use, that's what I like. It looks pretty slick also for your visitors. This has a premium look and feel, which is good for the reputation of my business. Cons There are some limitations depending on your plan, but overall there's very little to dislike. I can't find things that disturb me. There are plenty of options for each budget and you can use this tool as a complete beginner or expert. It doesn't matter what your skill level is. I like how the tool is frequently updated as well.
