Bird vs. Glassix

MessageBird seems to me a very useful tool for the times we are living [in] and the paradigm shift in corporate communications in all industries. It is very good at exchanging information and plain text. It works with some difficulty for sending images and other functionalities that the real WhatsApp application has, but the client on the other side does not know about this and sometimes sends information such as location that it is not possible to obtain.

Glassix is best suited for small customer service teams that handle a usual high volume of tickets. For us, we need to answer pretty much the same repetitive or similar subject, 3-5 questions from our client base; by having the AI chatbot, we do not need to deal with this anymore and are free to do more with our time. What I would love to see more is some more guides and resources on the AI features, although we use them quite vastly here. Some tutorials on how to customize would be highly appreciated.

Regarding WhatsApp Business, it is a very useful tool because templates can be programmed for the entire organization and clients can also be referred to other users in order to decongest an agent who can become quite busy. Otherwise there would be no way to serve you through two agents and you could have a bad end user or customer experience.

Pricing is crystal clear, there is no limit on chatbot or AI interactions and resolutions, and there is no long-term commitment to lock you down for years. Also, their team is super friendly and always prompt to answer any question or issue we might have with the platform.

• Easy video calling for scheduled appointments has meant customer retention as they don't need specific software etc to have a call.
• Negative impact whilst our internet has been slow as I've been unable to use the product well as dial in to the call using a phone option.
• Emails reminders has meant more clients turning up for the calls leading to retained income and happier customers.

• Glassix paid for itself in the first few weeks.
• The product is easy to use and way more economical than the competition.
