    The relationship building with the entire team at LMI from Sales, to the Account Manager to our Customer Relationship manager and their product Bold360 was excellent. They were always willing to listen to different ideas and try to make them work for us

    I found that ManyChat is a strong tool when receiving incoming messages, being able to create a tree of potential responses based on options given to the initiator. There is also a huge potential for complex automation (as long as the environment required by Facebook in order to send outgoing messages is maintained).

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • Reporting capabilities. I think the dashboard and reporting tool could contain more details in terms of what data is visible and available to the user/administrator.
    • Native mobile applications to provide added support.
    • Improving the beta testing program to use new features before understanding whether the update can be pushed out without causing issues with the end-user.

    • Honestly, the only thing I don't like about ManyChat is their support. It seems to be almost non existent. However, that concern is negated by having a fantastic user base that helps each other out on Facebook.

    Usability

    Day-to-day use of Bold360 AI (chatbot) use (reviewing new questions, adding new responses, tagging, etc.) is fairly simple, but utilizing more advanced features and custom channeling, etc. typically require escalation to developers and may require additional costs if you want help to implement

    ManyChat is a great tool, provides loads of features, integrations and just saves you a whole load of time once all set up. If you aren't tech-savvy or used to how digital marketing tools work, it can appear complicated. That's how I felt initially 2 years ago, and after watching tutorials online I had a better understanding of it. This is why I rated it a 7, as it's not a tool that you can just play around with and guess how it works. There's definitely a learning curve with it so I recommend doing the free training and watching video tutorials.

    Great customer support management provided by LogMeIn, which gives you a direct line with regular meetings with the company to make sure your implementation is a success. [The] account manager is always readily available as well for engagement. Opportunities though exist in a balance between professional services support and VIP support that can be improved upon more.

    There is room for improvement but frankly, we haven't had the need to request for support. Everything is pretty easy to setup and there are very useful video explanation guides and walkthroughs on ManyChat's YouTube channel. The only challenge we have had was to integrate it with Zapier, it's a bit tricky because you need to do a setup workaround first, but nothing too complicated.

    I used LivePerson in my previous company. It was the same as BoldChat in terms of being a standalone chat application. But when I started using Bold360, for the very first time I felt I'd found a tool that made chat a really good channel for communications.

    I've worked in the past with Chatfuel. However, I decided to switch to ManyChat due to a variety of reasons. Overall, ManyChat offers much more functionality out of the box (e.g., Facebook comments tool), sequence builders are much more intuitive. Also, they provide flexible pay as you go pricing plan, which is perfect for a startup like us.

    Return on Investment

    • Considerable saving on ticket deflection so return on investment
    • Saved on extra support engineer recruitment through self service
    • Enabled support engineers to concentrate on more complex customer issues as simple and semi-complex issues are generally dealt with through self service--so better quality of service for customers

    • For the intended application, we experienced a negative ROI due to the inconsistency in the ability to maintain the automation without incoming responses. Since it is a free service that was meant to lead to paid services organically, the inconsistencies prevented the desired outcome.
    • We did experience a higher conversion rate with basic incoming messages with questions about services or products due to the ability to have pre-created responses and direction immediately supporting the prospect.
