### "The Best Website Chatbot Tool For Lead Generation"

November 3, 2021

5.0

Having the ability to collect leads from a tool like Collect.Chat without having to pay a dime in the beginning is a huge turn-un. So, no need of running ads to get leads and so on, because with Collect.Chat I'd probably get them in bulk.

Pros

They offer a 100% free plan, where I could use the tool without making subscriptions. Also, on my website, my visitors hardly sign up or subscribe to my blog through my website pop ups, but instead they prefer signing up through my chatbot, and not because it was a chatbot, but because it looks very agile and attractive to click-on, and currently, with the help of Collect.Chat, I've collected more than 6,000 email leads from my website visitors.

Cons

The chatbot is automated, you set it up the way you want it to be, you can call it your goal, maybe to collect leads like emails, phone numbers or maybe to enable visitors to subscribe to your social media handles. So, in general, it is not a human chatbot but an automated one created by you.

### "Very useful App - ( with a couple of key drawbacks)"

January 3, 2019

5.0

Pros

Very easy to setup and use. Good template and intuitive flow of questions. Also one of the few chat-apps which allow you to receive messages through Whatspp, which is very popular in certain countries. The ability to receive message through Whatspp, alleviates a key issue, live chat. Whenever a customer wants to go live, you can just move him to Whatspp. Pricing is quite competitive if your responses are less per day

Cons

Its very important to try out the advanced feature like Zapier Webhook integration and conditional logic jumps. I especially needed to check out how the email and phone captures would get auto populated in my CRM and Mailchimp apps. This is not possible in the free version and the free trial of advanced version is not available. While the free trial is very good, I feel the founders should also allow a trial of the advanced version also. This will allow more people to try and out and pay for premium version. I for one are hesitating to go paid, till i can try out the advanced features. I am also awaiting a complete Facebook messenger version, so i dont need to use a different chat app there.

### "I've had a nice experience. The site is useful, but it just need a few improvements and debuging"

January 23, 2018

3.0

the automatization of the lead info collection

Pros

That im being able to collect leads information without depending on a person interaction, and the personalization

Cons

That it doesnt have an API in order to integrate actions directly from the form-chat. That would save a lot of time and effort for us!

### "Have been using it for about a month and got over 10 leads. Our agency is tiny so that's huge. "

January 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that it was easy to set up and it was free. I had the bot up and running in less than 30 minutes. I also like that it's easy to change something if I have to.

Cons

I don't like the fact that I can't have different scripts for different answers, like I recently learned I can do on Landbot. However, I still like Collect.chat UI way more so I'm going to stick with you guys. Thank you for everything! Really good product.

### "The experience has been wonderful."

January 23, 2018

4.0

Pros

The chat bot does not have a branding logo. The backend interface is very interactive to use. The chat bot is faster than I expected.

Cons

I would like it if the software allowed real time chatting when online along with the chat bot. Chatbot pops out on every page of the website. I would like it if it can be controlled.

### "I have loved my experience of Collect-chat. It has helped my website users contact me better"

January 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

\- I loved the increase in visitors contacting through the website. I did not get any visitor contacting me through my website before. I needed some kind of a chatbot that would look good and also get all the information that I needed from a visitor, so that I can contact him/her.

### "Awesome Chatbot to collect leads in your website "

April 20, 2020

5.0

Overall I am satisfied. It does the job and provides value for the money. Totally no brainer for lead collection in landing page

Pros

1\. Primarily Liked the interface and simplicity 2. There are tons of Free templates available for different industries. 3. No brainer for a beginner. For us, we started with a template for software company and edited the template to work on it. 4. Has an integration with Zapier and Google calendar.

Cons

1\. No complaint but, UX could be a little better. If there was an onboarding video right after sign up then I could get an idea before using it. 2. They should have more integration. I hope they are working on it.

### "Implemented collect.chat on client websites for lead generation."

April 28, 2018

5.0

This might also replace the need of surveys, forms, quiz builder like outgrown, landing pages, contact forms.

Pros

Collect.chat has a clean user interface, easy to install as it requires zero coding knowledge to integrate with your website, and has a lot of potential. It also offers a free plan to get you started.

Cons

Limitation on the responses per month and the data storage in days, would love for them to up it up a bit.

### "It's fine for basic stuff, but with time it could be really great."

January 23, 2018

4.0

It gives a personal touch to our website and some potential customers have already gave their e-mail adresses, which is a great lead generation method.

Pros

Since it's web based, it's really easy to use and it generates the code automatically, that I have to paste into my website to use it. The builder is really straightforward and I like the graphics. The whole branding of collect.chat is great, that is why I chose to pursue with a subscription, I have the lite version which is quite enough for us at the moment.

Cons

I had an issue, where I wanted an Invoice to the company name I am buying for, but that was not possible. That was really frustrating, since I bought it for our company. It needs more features, but overtime it could become a great alternative for some basic customer service stuff.

It provides me the 24\*7 presence online without actually being present there. And my website's visitors do feel the connection after chatting with my pre-loaded q/a data.

Captured leads effectively.

Pros

We liked how easy it is to embed into our website and it is a very handy alternative for our users to contact us.

Cons

It's a shame that some features are not available in the free version but that is expected. Features such as auto-pop up when the user scrolls to a certain point on the page.

None really. For the functionality we purchased it did a fine job.

### "The user experience is great. "

January 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

The user experience is great. The customization options available helps to match it with the website theme. Also, features like Zapier integration are very useful. Also, if you don't have Zapier integration as a part of your free plan, you can easily download the responses as a csv file. Logical jumps are innovative as you can easily branch out your conversation based on your users reply. Also, the ease of usability makes it one of the best chatbot.

Cons

Since, analyzing the chatbot conversations can be hard, I would like to have at least 50 complete conversations in the free plan. This is because I could then analyze the performance of the chatbot and then buy a plan that suits my business needs better. Having the maximum chat limit increased to 50 would help me get an insight about how are the users interacting with my chatbot and do I need to use logical jumps or not.

Pros

Easy to use and see results from websites instantly. We added it to our website and in our web apps and people started responding right away!

Cons

Wish it was a bit more flexible and responsive to answers and questions. Ex: if a customer chooses Yes show XYZ vs if they say no skip or show ABC

### "An engaging lead generation solution for websites"

January 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

The interface is really clean and comprehensive, which allows you to configure and publish your widget within minutes from signing up for the service. It does what it's supposed to do really well and can work as a good source for lead generation on a website.

Cons

There's nothing I don't like about Collect.chat, but it would be really interesting to include more triggers for the conversation to start (e.g. button click, number of page views, etc.) as well as more options for customization in terms of the look and feel of the widget.

Nothing in particular

Pros

I liked the simplicity and ease of use of the product. It also has minimal features which could be a good thing if that is what you are looking for.

Cons

After setting up this app on my site, I would get emails when users would begin a chat, but i would try to login to the portal and it never did work. It would just load and load and load. Too bad.
