Wildfire Interactive (Discontinued) vs. Zoom Virtual Agent

The transition to Google has been painful - key contacts are no longer available.

Zoom Virtual Agent is really suited, as we're learning, for companies that also use their contact center solution, as it's an entire customer experience and support tool all in one. It's very easy to upload and use AI responses that best support your customer, and train the AI on your specific use cases.

• Facebook tab implementation. Allows you to easily create and produce functioning social tabs on your brands FB page.
• Add voting, sweepstakes, poll functionality to your website. Easily implement these campaigns to increase user engagement and TOS.

• Generative AI answers from existing documentation
• Providing tools for admins to discover and easily create new intents and workflows
• Customizing the experience by campaign, chatbot, workflow, etc. to facilitate curated experiences for customers

• More customization - Would like to have the ability to edit more without coding.

• There's a lot of competition in the CX space right now, but I think Zoom has a good deal going on, with all their other products under the same roof.
• Some of the reporting could use some improvement, but it's still early days.

Our initial contract with Wildfire Whitelabel was for $30,000/year, as we progressed we found several alternatives for significantly less. We used this to our advantage to lower the second year to $17,000 with the limitation in the level of support (they call this their "core" subscription). Support has been quite bad.

During our contract, we also asked for quotes on some custom work, but never managed to get an answer (or actual quote). Now two years into our contract, the limitations and lack of development are enough for us to find a different solution. Newcomers to the market like Rafflecopter, WooBox and PunchTab are delivering much better results for a fraction of the price

Very easy to use, almost anyone can learn how to build a comprehensive promotion.

You can customize the experience for your clients, make it sound as human as possible and provide different paths to find the answers needed

I have never been kicked out of Wildfire service. Always up and running.

Easy to perform tasks and quick to upload changes to your promotions.

Phone and email support were always available to us when we needed it.

Gave me a thorough rundown on everything the software does. Sometimes it is difficult to run through it all over the phone/internet, but I was able to figure it out myself.

Simple to use and very effective in increasing user engagement on both social channels and website. Noticeably helped raise TOS.

Wildfire was a merely an adequate social media tool when it existed as a standalone, but it just couldn't compete against other players like Sprout, Falcon, and Sprinklr.
