Compare Chatfuel with other popular tools in the same category.
Chatfuel is a straightforward platform that even thode without prior knowledge in chatbot development can use. Its simpe to use , powerful and scalable. Chatfuel has a wide range of features that allow users to complex chatbots.
Chatfuel does not offer as many functions and for business with great audience can be expensive for them. Rest of things I am liking the most apart from these two concern I have not found any kind of problem or disadvantage in Chatfuel.
First of all Chatfuel can be used by any size of organisation. This user friendly tool allows for quick and accurate chatbot development, saving lot of time and resources.Best thing which I get the most of the benefit that is its versatility because it supports integration such as whatsapp,Facebook and Instagram so I can connect with my target audience via their prefrrred channel of communication.
The functionality and responsiveness of the AI to our constituents.
It can be a bit confusing to setup. We ran into a major issue in setup with our New pages experience.
It helps us manage a plethora of incoming communications. It is able to direct people before needing to talk to a rep.
You don't need yo write a single line of code to run this chatbot
Only 50 conversations in the free trail.
It solved one of the biggest problem for my customer in order to find products online.
At the moment, there are the Youtubers, in a while, there will be the "Chatfuelers". Chatfuel instinctively allows you to create a living character (and not just a great sales/ marketing assistant). I see in Messenger the future marketplace for AI as I see in Chatfuel the new Apple of this marketplace: Using Chatfuel is not only to ensure a bright future, it is also a pleasure. Starting to use it is the best thing you can do, right now.
It might be good in the future to join other platforms than Messenger or Instagram. The negotiations with Mark must be exciting.
I am in the process of creating an assistant for a Hostel and a tourist guide for travelers. My client is delighted.
Easy, and l love it. I love the flow and the blocks.
I think the cost is expensive for a startup No AI, AI require integration with other software.
I can't deal with many clients in messengers, chatfuel solve my problem
The way the whole application is designed and developed. It's so user-friendly even a common man can understand.
There isn't anything specific that I dislike. I would say the price could have been a bit cheaper compared to their competitors.
Majorities of my customer's queries are solved using ChatFuel. The Incoming call has reduced drastically.
Flow builder is awesome andn nothing compared when i connect a flow to a block or vice versa.
I want to create the Whatsapp bot in Chatfuel
I am solving one main issue in my business, which is maintaining a clean, constant replies to my customers on spot. Benefits is that customers do realize the good effort for building the bot to help them all the way down.
The ease of building a chatbot is just mindblowing. I am not a coder but still I dont face any difficulties in adding any feature
If the users were able to make payment within the messenger it would be awesome but I guess thats a Facebook limitation
I want to keep a regular engagement with my customers. I have built a flow which keeps sending messages to my users without my intervention
I feel their heart is beneath their product which is always the best. They are very friendly and offer clear tutorials. They offered a discount for non-profits. I love the new flow structure and ease of that visually.
I wish we could export the bot structure if needed. I realize that is probably extremely difficult. Payment options are disappearing soon. I would like them to come back.
We are providing emotional support for people 24 hours a day.
Data gathering using chatfuel is the best! The fact that I can create and design the way how will the user will answer the question in messenger and having it real-time available in Google Sheet, this is something every company like ours, will really appreciate!
We can't no longer do scheduling to send reminders anymore via Sequence beyond 24hrs. But it's more on Facebook Policy and not Chatfuel's functionality.
We want to find a way that our target audience can easily onboard their self and avail our program through the chatbot. And Chatfuel actually made it possible! And scaling it up is not a problem :)
It's simple to use, flow-orientated processing is easy to set up and guide the user through your funnel. Integration with Facebook is a doddle, and it increases the interaction available to our webpage users massively engaging them and making a booking more likley.
Nothing really, it's all very good. Perhaps a specific template for my business would be great, but I'm in a niche healthcare market so could be difficult. There are limitations to the topics that are possible I think it's 4 maximum chatbot options and it would be nice to occasionally have more options.
Previously we had lots of web page visitors but some would hesitate and disappear without finding the answers they wanted. With chatfuel they're directly talking to my receptionists who can help them immediately. It's also given us direction on what we need to write and what questions the public are wanting to ask us.
Its platform is very easy to use, it is not necessary to have a lot of experience to start working. When I took the task of configuring the bot for our operation, I had no previous experience in chatfuel, with its help portal I was able to solve some of my doubts. The integration options and the block type options are many and you have many possibilities to create the ideal workflow. They are constantly updating the portal so that it gives us more options for use.
If at any time you mistakenly delete a block from your flow or delete a process within a block, you have no option to restore to a previous state and that implies that you have to be backing up your process before you make a change , but as everything can be overlooked do the backup at some point. When you make a change in the flow, it happens in real time where you have it implemented and you cannot be testing without affecting production, you should put a button to upload the changes to production to test it first.
Estamos resolviendo el problema de capital humano y tiempo de servicio, actualmente nos duda más rentable tener el servicio de bot 24/7 a tener 3 agentes diarios para cubrir el mismo horario, en tiempos de respuesta se han mejorado y los usuarios no dependen de un agente de servicio para cubrir sus necesidades. Dentro de los beneficios que hemos tenido, son el CAC y la incorporación de nuestros productos ha disminuido en un 50% y aún tenemos la capacidad de bajar más ese CAC.

no dislikes at the moment, everything works as expected

One dislike for pricing templates. The pricing templates are too high and there are less numbers of templates to use as free.

Its amazing what you can do with chatbots. Pretty much the potential is limitless.
Literally nothing. I have never had a negative experience with this company.
Time, Right responses, Ease of Marketing, customer satisfaction.
This has some unique features, like the ability to call from in app. Plus Zapier intergraion opens up a whole new world
Downside is that you do have to pay PER page you install the chatbot to, where some of their competitors allow you to have unlimited pages. Its still only like 30 a page. Their analytics could use some work.
This solves the need to custom code a chatbot. within minutes i can create from scratch a dynamic custom chat bot.
In my work, I wear a lot of different hats and, while I like to learn, some subjects take longer than I have to give. One of those, it turns out, is learning how to code a Facebook Messenger bot. I needed something free and easy to use -- Chatfuel was miraculously the first tool I tried (and loved!).
I really can't complain much; the tool is free! I'd like to see more video functionality and for analytics to be built into the program, rather than provided by outside programs.
You have to meet your followers where they already are -- and in a lot of cases, that's Facebook Messenger. We needed to build a Facebook bot in a short period of time for little to no cost. Miraculously, ChatFuel was the answer. We have used it to build a simple rapid response team that helps people who subscribe take action on important issues.
The ease of use. Prompt customer support. Ongoing upgrades. Active community forums. Cloning features. Help and troubleshooting to launch on Messenger platforms. Timely updates on Facebook guidelines affecting bots. Program for eligible nonprofits.
Server seems to slow down at busy times affecting user experience and bot performance.
We wanted a mental therapy bot that could interact with users in a human-like way. Linking out Chatfuel bot to Dialogflow has enabled the human-like user experience we were striving for.
Chatfuel's user experience is amazing. Everything is easy and clear.
I feel like there is room for opportunities to integrate more features, like validating data from a data base and scaling your chatbot through social media
Chatfuel helped me build a bot to help people identify violence in their relationships.
I used the blocks way to create a bot. Now I switched to flows and I love it ! Easy to understand, easy to manage, no skill in code needed, it's perfect ! And, it works ! I also like the way to manage time to time non recognised answers and act on what to say when a users types that, and those statistic features.
It's very specific but my price plan was not adapted for my usage. After a talk with the chatfuel team they solved it by adapting it and now it's perfect !
I use Chatfuel for a small game I created through the messenger chatbot. Now I can manage my game and the new flows even gives me ideas for some more !
Customer support is usually fast. They usually find an answer or report issues to Facebook.
Flows and blocks is a bit confusing. It seems like 2 different platforms sometimes.

The fact that it is easy to use and set up within a few minutes. The chatbot automation on Facebook and Instagram. Facebook messenger. Compared to competitors it is reliable.
The features of the software are very nice but it does not have SMS marketing features. By improving on features, especially SMS marketing. User interface and integration.
It is solving conversating with my customers and interactions online. Yes i am benefiting financially. Yes it has made me to be more productive. Yes it has improved my business.
Chatfuel keyword makes it easy to respond correctly to clients' and customers' requests and inquiries. Facebook messenger is the tool I use. Compared to competitors Chatfuel is very ideal to use for chat messenger automation.
As much I Chatfuel has a great keyword automation tool, the only thing it does not have is a multifunctional aspect especially SMS automation, and not having enough features for other social media chatbot abilities compared to Mobilemonkey.
Keywords that make it easy to answers clients' inquiries and requests for services needed. It has increased my productivity. Yes, it increased my business performance.
The JSON API plugin is super easy to use and you can connect to any third-party API.
The team doesn't listen for feature suggestions.

It can be cleverly integrated with many additional services using API which makes it even more powerful for marketing, automation and utilising data. It also has many excellent features, backend settings and a useful analytics section to make sense of the user data.
The user interface makes it difficult to visualise the flow of conversations and sequences. The interface and builder can also feel a bit "clunky" to use. This can take some time to get used to since it's not immediately intuitive. It does get much easier though, after spending time learning how to use it.
Connecting it with an online booking system where user data can be automatically passed over and back again, increasing functionality and conversions. The user attributes make it even more useful to collect data and build conversations and sequences that are tailored to particular actions or responses.
I like the way they set up the various menus for creating chatbots. They make it easy to organize and quickly build out the chatbot.
There are some limitations to the platform when compared to building a custom bot. Also, all data lives on their platform which means that if a customer wants to leave them, they give up their customer data.
Proof of concepts, demo chatbots, and prototyping - helped proved out interface concepts before investing in development.
