CEO Management Consulting ### "¡Cuidado con el truco cuando se vence la prueba gratis!" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 2.0 2.0 Likelihood to Recommend 1/10 April 25, 2022 Es increíble que al finalizar el trial, pongan visible en mi sitio web (todos los visitantes lo ven al visitar el website) un mensaje invitando a comprar la versión de pago, lo que resulta molesto para un visitante que no tiene por qué distraerse leyendo un mensaje que no es para él, ni es parte de mi página web. He intentado quitando el código que inserté para el trial, pero es inútil. Algo hace ese código malicioso tras bambalinas, que no desaparece. Parece ser una estrategia engañosa para obligar a comprar los planes de pago, quizás así desaparezca el molesto mensaje, pero ahora ya NO quiero comprarles el servicio porque considero esta estrategia casi fraudulenta. No recomiendo hacer negocios con este proveedor, a riesgo de incurrir en gastos mayores y dolores de cabeza intentando eliminar el software malicioso que parece acompañar el trial. Pros Cumple con lo prometido en la descripción del producto. Cons Funciona bien, incluso estuve a punto de comprar el plan anual luego de la prueba gratis. Pero el servicio al cliente es pésimo, no dan respuesta por ninguno de los medios que dejan disponibles en su propio "HelloBox" de su página web. ¡Qué tal, no les funciona ni a ellos mismos!

Project Manager Real Estate ### "Great product, bad service" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 3/10 January 20, 2021 I like the software, but it's risky. Considerate this before buying it. Also, if you know another software please let me know! Pros Its a great software overall. But I believe they need more people to assist the clients they already have. Cons Since my company has a lot of clients, things come up and in digital we need to act quickly. Here with hellobox is my only provider where I have problems to change simply things as: - account settings - get the bills to a new email My clients are upset because we cannot provide them bills for a service, which is a very bad image for the company.

Creative Director Computer Software ### "Good quality product, but seems a bit too bloated for me" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 May 15, 2019 HelloBox is the ideal solution to many of our problems. However the speed and also our needs did not match it's demographic. We need automatic funnels as we do not have CSOs who work 24/7 Pros Huge variety of contact points and channels. Great for big businesses to route different client requests to different segments. Cons Too bloated. The script itself took 3.3s to load.

Webdesigner Design ### "Contact widget for your website" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 May 8, 2019 The widget is extremely easy to set up, it supports most social media and traditional channels, there are quite a few options available, and the customer support is great! I recommend this widget for professional websites. Pros These are nice features that I didn't find in other contact widgets: - Number of integrations (10 channels available) - Great customization options (picture, badge) - QR code generation for SMS - Option to display business hours - Free trial for one month - Amazing customer support Cons These are my suggestions to improve the widget further: - Enhance widget position options (currently left or right, no custom positioning) - Would love a "simpler" version with a minimalist design (the current version looks very professional - not suitable for personal or quirky landing pages) - Translation (FR) is not perfect - Add option to display time in 24h format and date as day dd mm - Reduce loading time (currently 5 sec) - Add option to customize the apparition of the widget (event trigger, timer, animation effect.) - No need to enter credit card info to get free trial Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.
