    Chatfuel
    Chatfuel is great for a small team looking to easily implement and set up Facebook chatbots for their clients for ease of community management, etc. Chatfuel is not necessarily meant for large scale operations that require complex workflows and chatbot requirements, it is limited to Facebook Messenger and is not 100% intuitive in this regard.

    Claritysoft is well suited if you need more of an address book as your CRM. Situations where sales are more passive and based on increasing awareness instead of hard, closing sales. In my previous role selling medical equipment, this would NOT work. However, in my current role where awareness is the key factor that drive smaller sales amounts, it does it's job. I've just been in a lot more roles where I need to upload contracts with signatures and track sales Opportunities, and Claritysoft doesn't seem able to do that.

    • Claritysoft provides great software for keeping track of all the activities you've completed for a customer or lead.
    • Claritysoft also has a great setup with creating new activities that need to be completed in the future so you do not forget.
    • Claritysoft also has a very good support team. When we have questions or problems, Claritysoft is very prompt to address them.

    Cons
    Chatfuel
    • Setting it up is time-consuming.

    Claritysoft
    • There is no spell-check function to use when you are sending emails.
    • Some of the functions you need when deleting records and the like are not always available on every page when you are working in the application.
    • When moving quotes to opportunities, the attachments go with the move so when you go back to the quote, it is not there. Also, when you move a quote it does not automatically fill in the quote number as it was on the quote, it creates a new number. This should be fixed.
    • When you convert a lead it does not move the lead to archives or get rid of it. It leaves it in the Leads area and so you have to manually get rid of it.
    • There is no auto-dial feature built into Claritysoft.
    • The mobile app needs to look and feel just like the online version.

    It is VERY, VERY, simple and easy to use and learn. All I needed was a super brief 30 minute overview to understand how to use it, and their Customer Support is pretty good. I was raised on Salesforce, which is much more complicated, but allows you to do so much more.

    They are very helpful and quick whenever I have a question about Claritysoft CRM. I think the guy I've spoken with is named Evan, and he's been very helpful. Claritysoft, give the man a raise if you know who I'm talking about. He responds super quick with truly helpful insights.

    Both offer bot service to reply to messages from Facebook. The difference is that Chatfuel gives you the option of being able to create conversion funnels or fixed conversation changes.
    Connecting to our API is free from Chatfuel and integration with other providers has an additional cost.
    AIVO has no option to create conversation flows if not through keywords.

    Claritysoft's emails are much easier to use since Salesforce is in the middle of switching from Classic to Lightning. Also, Salesforce does not have a native group edit option. Claritysoft is much more data driven and you can use all functions of Excel to customize reports. However, Claritysoft does not have as many third-party add-on options compared to Salesforce's app exchange.

    Return on Investment
    Chatfuel
    • It helped overall with visitor engagement.

    Claritysoft
    • It has made it easier to see our overall sales for each sales rep.
    • The only negative is that we cannot change over the account, contacts, leads, and opportunities with one ownership field. You have to do each one separate and when you are transferring 1000 clients this takes much too long to do. No reason for it.
