### "Awesome chat management and chatbot solution for driving sales"

January 25, 2025

5.0

Great! It helps solve so many problems in just one solution. No need to jump between different platforms to manage chats.

Pros

The ability to connect and manage all my chats from different social media channels in one platfom is awesome!

Cons

Its interface is pretty easy to use but it could make better use of color coding to help navigate

It offers a lot more capabilities that are critical to our business compared to Brevo's chat function.

### "Great visitor tracker and front-end communication for my site visitors"

December 15, 2023

5.0

Pros

The live chat is fantastic and critical for quick deals when customers are most primed to book. They feel great about getting instant answers or directions around the site. They feel they are being attended to and cared for. Further, with Zobot chatbot set up, I can also delegate answering quite a few questions about my policies and experience. It can also be connected to my Facebook business page inbox and Instagram DM! This saves me a ton of time! With some effort and intelligence on my side, I can also track or even identify the repeated visitors, see what interests them the most, and assess how likely they are to close a deal. Lastly, all that info is integrated into Zoho CRM for an overall picture of my clients.

Cons

Sometimes, the chatbot isn't as smart, answering wrong questions despite extensive training (using business terms) on my side. Next, live chat may mess up the names in CRM for the recognized leads/contacts. Lastly, some of the user/device data seen during the live visit disappears after the visit. I wish there were more control over the data that is collected but remains untapped by the admin.

SailsIQ is part of the Zoho One platform, which is the backbone of my small business. It is so well integrated into CRM and other social tools, that it was a no-brainer to take the most out of it.

### "Measuring traffic to your website"

November 29, 2024

3.0

We use Zoho Sales IQ to help us measure traffic to our website with new leads and repeat clients that are in our CRM.

Pros

What we liked with SalesIQ is that you can measure how many people are visiting your website and sync it with data in the CRM.

Cons

As not overly techy people, this platform was more challenging to setup and use than other Zoho products.

### "Sales IQ is real time website engagement"

December 12, 2023

5.0

It runs all the time. If you would cut it off my website, there would be missing a very important part that helps to analyze the content. And easy to use for visitors.

Pros

You can see what visitors do on your website and you can get in contact with them to bring information or help

Cons

To use the full potential (and this is gigantic) of Sales IQ, who have to do a lot of homework (learning, practice)

February 11, 2024

5.0

Pros

Excelente and powerful tool that helped me improve my customer engagement and sales. Excelent Live chat, Chatbot, Visitor tracking excelent feature.

Cons

As I use different tools from Zoho, the only downside is that each tool has its own price and makes the set of tools quite expensive.

### "Huge Bang for Your Buck (Get on the Chatbot Bandwagon!) "

July 23, 2019

5.0

We use it every day. I love the tracking it gives our digital marketing efforts. We're in the process of rolling the chatbot out on our site and it works great. It took us a little bit of doing to figure out, but we're extremely pleased.

Pros

Very cheap (especially when factored in as part of Zoho One) Chatbot functionality (they're a little tricky to code, but once you have it down, they're easy to set up) Integration with CRM + Desk is glorious Mobile app works great, so I can always respond to chats wherever I am

Cons

I wish that chatbot development was a little easier. Still, it's absolutely worth it!

### "Very good enough and reliable tool"

December 14, 2022

4.0

Pros

The dashboard is simple and intuitive, making it easy to find exactly what I need. It offers great insights into customer behavior and helps me adjust my sales strategies. It's also great that it integrates with other Zoho products.

Cons

It lacks some of the more advanced features I was hoping for and also, but not limited to the solution, it is actually having time to analyze and activate all the insights.

### "A good tool for attend your leads"

August 15, 2023

4.0

We catch all the end customer's requirements no matter the hour or day when they make contact.

Pros

We can integrate it with any chatbot that supports webhook integration. In that way we can increase the options to communicate with our end customers and that's not necessary make the contact within operational hours, the end customer can write at 10:00 pm and the chatbot will answer the questions and notify us regarding that requirement with all customer's data (phone, company, product, etc.).

Cons

The native chatbot (ZIA) works only in english but must of our end customers speak spanish, then we need to pay an external chatbot license.

### "sales iq is the hidden gem of zoho"

July 12, 2017

5.0

the integration with zoho crm and zoho campaigns is bar none. The cost of zoho sales iq is about the same as the others (a little on the high side) so it's an obvious choice.

Pros

Integration with zoho crm, zoho campaigns and zoho desk is awesome. For example, you can see if someone visiting your website is a customer or not. When you chat with the person, you can transfer them to support or sale as needed. The chat transcript is saved to the contact in zoho crm.

Cons

UI is not as good as LiveChat. The UI isn't bad but LiveChat has the most simple UI out there. Also the chat dialogue box that the customer uses is "cooler" looking in LiveChat - it's more fun looking. Lastly, after the chat is over, a copy of the chat is emailed to the customer but it says "powered by zoho sales iq" at the bottom which ruins the effect here.

Pros

I like that this is a cheap solution for live chat. It is easy to setup in wordpress and get it going.

Cons

I never use half of the features. Most times I do not see an alert pop up when someone is trying to communicate with us...I get an email to my junk mail a half hour later saying that I missed a chat.

### "Zoho Chat"

January 16, 2020

3.0

Seamless chat service for our customer service and sales agents.

Pros

Ease of implementation and ease of use. Very little coding needed to add to existing website. Customers can get outside office hours email.

Cons

The customer support is severely lacking. Will schedule video calls and then send emails 3 minutes after the initial start time stating they can't join because they are too busy.

In the free version Zoho Sales IQ offers only a limited set of features and the paid subscriptions are quite expensive in the long term.

### "Good application to answer client queries through a live chat and keep track on website visitors."

July 15, 2018

We can easily embed zoho sales iq widget in our site and interact with our live visitors. Through Zoho sales iq panel we can keep track on our site visitors, we can check information about the browser they are using to browse our site, duration they are staying on our site etc.Overall its a good software.

Cons

This is a good software. The only issue with this is sometimes the chat session initiated by the visitor does not properly show on user screen. Like the option of accept chat sometimes cause issue rest all things are good with this software.

January 23, 2019

No issues to date. Never had any major problems. Best CRM out there for the price

Pros

I think price wise its the best option. Has all the functionality one could ask for. They've partnered with all the top business functionality companies out there to sync up nicely.

Cons

It was a bit difficult for a novice user to setup but their customer service team is good at helping you out.

January 24, 2019

5.0

Pros

We added this to our site in only a few minutes, and we immediately saw results. We started getting messages from potential customers right away. We love that there is a mobile app so we can answer messages from customers away from the computer

Cons

Seems to slow down our site a little bit. But ultimately I think the benefits outweigh that.

March 27, 2018

5.0

Pros

I recently started using this application and it turned out to be wonderful. Compared with another, I feel much more dynamic and better way to interact with the visitor. Try it, you will not regret it.

Cons

We should have a general control panel to be able to administer all these magnificent zoho applications. All from a single dashboard.

Pros

I like to know who is returning to my website and where they spend most of their time. Additional I can offer help.

I would like this software to be bundle in a package to improve costs. I do not know how to explain a way of more automated process but then it would be like a robot.

July 19, 2017

4.0

Website and visitor behavior tracking, chat feature, and automated alerts.

Pros

The tool is easy to customize with different timer parameters and settings to best track the visitors on your site. Lead scoring is easy to setup and track.

Cons

The ZOHO products are harder to connect than is necessary. When setting everything up, you'll want a good road map from the beginning because it can become very tedious to make changes to your system once everything is in motion.
