Conte.ai vs. MobileMonkey

I do not recommend Conte.ai and give them an one.

MobileMonkey would be great if you have a really strong social media presence and want to capitalize on people visiting your pages. It's great if you have a tech friendly audience who is not afraid to talk to a chatbot. If you have an audience where they might be uncomfortable or more of an "uptight" audience then it might not be fore you. It's also not great for heavy B2B if your focus is on high level targets as they're likely not logged in to Facebook at work. B2C is probably the best function for MobileMonkey, although it could be used to help field support messages.

Incentivized

• For small businesses on zero budget - provides a free.
• A Facebook group community with peers and experts helping each other.

Incentivized

• Conte.ai's customer service team
• Conte.ai needs to build trust for major networks like Facebook

• Terrible marketing ethics!
• 6am phone calls to my cell trying to up-sell me
• Spam galore! I have replied more than 5 times to be unsubscribed, yet they still spam me

I do not feel Conte.ai is usable, so I give them a rating of one

I give them a one because I feel that Conte.ai's customer service is inadequate. When trying to find a solution, they say they will give me additional posts as compensation instead of a refund.

MobileMonkey support is second to none when you have a paid plan. Always willing to help and make your life a lot easier when you're facing any technical difficulties or frustrations. When I was on the free plan, I found plenty of useful resources that helped me solve my problems, and I could still contact support for help.

MobileMonkey is a lot less expensive than both Olark and Drift. We chose MobileMonkey because we were hoping the familiar interface and integration between social and the website would drive more interest which would lead to conversion and revenue. It's more of a chatbot than Intercom in that Intercom is really good for customer support, but MM is a nice way to get people interested by sharing high level data through a conversation that doesn't require a real person. However, Olark, Drift, and Intercom all integrate with the major CRMs and marketing automation platforms which gives them a real edge over MobileMonkey at this time.

Incentivized

• Negative ROI: I have lost business because of Conte.ai's broken system

• It has become a quick sunk-cost due to the amount of time I had to spend ignoring/blocking their unsolicited marketing/communication attempts.
