We liked it in the past but no longer use that service and are now trying a different service since the past 3 years.

Pros

It is very interesting because it is AI but also does have humans (US) using it for verification purposes.

Cons

I feel like some times I do not get notifications for messages that are coming in. Some times I will have to go looking for messages.

Trengo has a lot of potential as a product but needs to fix some of the glitches and add more features such as having a "draft" section, and some bugs with the calls. The app is super helpful however it is slow and occasionally glitches as well.

Pros

Having all communications in one place (emails, Instagram messages, phone calls)

Cons

That you can not have "draft" messages saved, that the calls sometimes drop

Verschrikkelijke ervaring met Trengo. De software zit vol fouten en er is geen klantenservice die je helpt. Problemen blijven zich opstappelen en als klap op de vuurpijl worden extreem prijzen verhoogd.

Pros

In de basis lijkt de software logisch opgebouwd. Het functioneert alleen niet.

Cons

Een klantenservicetool met zelf de slechte klantenservice ooit! De software zit vol fouten waardoor we bijv. de factuurgegevens van een ander bedrijf in ons account hadden, we bij ieder ticket een foutmelding kregen die we moesten wegklikken en na het aanzetten van een voicemail i.v.m. pasen zijn we weken onbereikbaar geweest omdat de setting niet meer te wijzigen was. De klantenservice is letterlijk onbereikbaar en je wordt van het kastje naar de muur gestuurd met chatbots en automatische reacties in verschillende talen notabene. No customer support Bad code, many errors and no way to fix it

Reasons for choosing Trengo

Destijds was prijs en factor om voor Trengo te kiezen en leek de functionaliteit vergelijkbaar.

We started out strong, but in recent months, prices have increased and critical features have been phased out. Initially, we recommended Trengo to our customers; however, we ceased doing so after several reported negative experiences and many expressed concerns about the high costs. Consequently, we have decided to switch to Helpwise.io. I am disappointed by the inability to export my data, except through a complicated process involving the API; this feels somewhat like being held hostage.

Pros

Ticket management, the interface, the integration of internal chat and ticket management (this has since been retired though), integration of different channels.

Cons

Constant price increases, retiring critical features, the app (especially on iPad) isn’t very good, slow support, spam ending up in our mailbox, and we experienced email delivery issues.

Answering customers is not bad but anything related to customer support is slow and low quality. The sudden surge in prices forces me to move all my data and system to another platform. This is very frustrating, and for this reason I highly recommend anyone to stay away from this company (they will forcefully upsell/upgrade you).

Pros

Modern-looking, fairly easy to implement.

Cons

Customer support is slow and inneficient. Pricing is extremely unstable. Several bumps over the months and sudden changes in pricing structure that penalize smaller companies. My monthly price has doubled, and conversions are now capped (so I'll have to pay more if I get more support requests). No legacy plans, you are forced to upgrade. This will happen again in the future, no doubt.

Fijne partij die altijd klaar staat om je te helpen. Vriendelijke support medewerkers denken goed mee voor een gepaste oplossing

Pros

Fijn programma waar alles onder een dak zit. Van chat tot mail. Trengo biedt de mogelijkheid om klanten zo snel en goed mogelijk te helpen.

Cons

Het is een one size fits all programma. Hierdoor ben je beperkt in je mogelijkheden.

Het gebruiken van de optie voice werkt nauwelijks tot niet. De software had ervoor moeten zorgen dat onze customer support makkelijker werd en beter voor de klant, maar het word er tot nu toe alleen meer gestrest door. Wij gebruiken de telefoon service "voice" en die werkt bijna niet en hierdoor hebben wij al vele klanten telefonisch niet kunnen helpen. Ik had niet veel verwacht van de software die ze ervoor aanboden, maar het zou wel moeten werken. Ook hun support is zeer omslachtig en niet eens Nederlands. Ik word 4x gevraagd om dezelfde gegevens toe te sturen naar het support team. Ik snap niet waarom ze dat bijvoorbeeld niet kunnen terugvinden in hun eigen gemaakte systeem.

Pros

Makkelijk tickets delen met collega's en toewijzen.

Cons

Het gebruiken van de optie voice werkt nauwelijks tot niet. De software had moeten lijden dat onze customer support makkelijker werd, maar het word er tot nu toe alleen meer gestrest door.

Reasons for choosing Trengo

Voor een bedrijf die klantenservice hulpmiddelen verkoopt moeten ze zelf nog aan het werk met hun eigen klantenservice. Omdat Trengo een Nederlands bedrijf is. Ik hoopte op ook Nederlands support. Ook hadden ze een overzichtelijkere software met meerdere functies.
