Heyflow vs. Skype (discontinued)

Heyflow is very well suited for creating landing pages or simple forms for recruiting employees. It's also excellent as an order form for generating leads. However, it's not suitable for surveys or appointment requests. Furthermore, it's very easy to use, even for users with no prior experience in this area.

Having interacted with a new replacement tool, Microsoft Teams, it is challenging to recommend Skype, as it lacks some essential features, such as being less equipped with the latest updates, and it is not platform-independent, causing issues on PCs and phones, as well as during calls that might hinder work.

• anyone can do it, reduces cost/need for engineering team help
• fast to get started, there isn't a lot to implement
• designing and setting up the flow is easy
• allows both out of the box or fully custom options, which makes it compatible with any project

• The instant chat function is great. Very straightforward, easy to use, easy to learn, no technical issues.
• Video calls are pretty easy also, user friendly and a mostly stable connection with no issues.
• Voice calls are easy also, eliminates the need for an external landline or the need to use your cell phone. Clear connections, not really any dropped calls.

• Restricted webhook functionality, wed like to be able to map fields without having to post the full request and change the receiving webhook our end to cater to Heyflow
• a/b testing, not being able to 'keep' older variants which we may want to retest later
• little things like we only do uk market so all phone numbers start with 01 or 07 so we want to have a placeholder example thats familiar to the user eg 07766554433 but the system is restricted to +447766554433 which is a conversion factor for us

• Skype is a RESOURCE hog. People who have limited bandwidth will have poor call quality.
• It is hard to figure out how to use emojis and upload images in the chat.
• The background images do not fool anybody....it is clearly not your real background.

Heyflow hat mich von Anfang an begeistert – und das nicht nur wegen der intuitiven Benutzeroberfläche. Die Plattform schafft es, komplexe Prozesse wie Leadgenerierung, Qualifizierung oder Terminvereinbarungen in einfache, interaktive und visuelle Erlebnisse zu verwandeln.







In wenigen Minuten lassen sich Flows erstellen, anpassen und live schalten – ohne auf Entwickler warten zu müssen.







Mit Features wie progressiver Datenerfassung, A/B-Testing, personalisierter Ansprache und reibungsloser UX steigern wir messbar die Conversion Rates. Ich kann CI-konforme, moderne und mobiloptimierte Flows gestalten, die genau zu der Zielgruppe passen. Für mich ist Heyflow nicht nur ein Tool, sondern ein echter Gamechanger im digitalen Marketing. Es verbindet Effizienz mit Kreativität – und das mit einem Wow-Effekt für Nutzer und Kund:innen

I have given this rating as this need to give more than that as it's very helpful for us and makes our work more efficient and fast.

Heyflow is very user-friendly and intuitive, especially for non-technical users. The drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to design and launch interactive flows quickly, and the real-time preview feature is a big plus.
I’m giving it an eight because while it’s great for most standard use cases, there are some limitations in advanced logic, dynamic behavior, and custom styling that can require workarounds.

Skype is not as good as Facetime in terms of ease to glance at it and figure out how it works. I think that's a result of Skype trying to be too many things at once. A lot of the menu and UI could be streamlined, and I would jettison some of the additional functions that have been tacked on over the years to simplify. That being said, while some options are slightly hard to find, they all work flawlessly once found.

There have been no notable outages of HEyflow to date, not even in the past. If an outage is imminent, HEyflow will announce it in good time. If it occurs unexpectedly, SUpport will find a solution as quickly as possible. In some cases, a different server solution has been offered temporarily to minimize downtime. All in all, the response times of the support team are excellent.

Heyflow's performance is truly exemplary and fast. We have never had any performance issues, regardless of how many visuals or videos we used. Unfortunately, we cannot comment on integrations, as we do not use any except for a Meta Pixel. However, even this has not affected our performance so far.

Heyflow's support is truly world-class. Whether via chat or email, you'll receive genuine help. If a problem can't be resolved immediately, they'll look into it and usually get back to you the next day. Their response time is generally very fast compared to other companies. It's also possible to book a free appointment at any time, during which a representative will contact you by phone to offer advice and assistance on how to improve your performance.

I am not aware of the current support level for Skype for business, as I have never used even though I have the product. However, the support for Skype's personal paid users is not where it could be. Users who pay for Skype features do not have a clear path to reach out to support. So, rating 6, can be better as soon as I need to use Skype for business support and get a good experience. I will say that I will renew Skype for Business subscription, which is a significant inconsistency on my end. The explanation is that Skype for Business comes bundled with Office for Business, with no additional cost, so why not.

I had already used Heyflow at my previous company because I was familiar with it from a service provider. Therefore, it was an easy decision to implement Heyflow again. The implementation was very straightforward, just as planned. There were absolutely no problems, and it worked perfectly from the start. But that's precisely what makes Heyflow so great!

It can be used on the phone via mobile application as well as on the desktop by logging in to the website. Easily installed and ready to use.

Heyflow Vs. Typeform = Heyflow wins because of design flexibility as TF is very stuck in their typical classical look. Heyflow also comes with a plethora of more options to improve lead quality and has drop-off analytics as standard. Heyflow Vs. Growform = This one is tougher as I think Growform is very competitive with what you get value-wise like no charge for phone and email network validations against Twilio and Neverbounce API's. Also Growform comes with a much more generous submission count for their smaller tiers AND I'm not capped by the amount of forms.

We use Skype in combination with Grasshopper. While Grasshopper acts as a routing toll free number with extensions, if we are making calls directly, we do it through Skype. Skype's desktop and mobile apps are easier to use, and provide unlimited local calls at a flat, affordable rate. Allowing our team to use their existing mobile or desktop devices without additional hardware for business office phone calls is important, and Skype makes that possible

No, I wouldn't change any of Heyflow's terms and conditions or price. The price-performance ratio is simply impressive. I don't know of any other provider that offers a platform that allows you to start from scratch without any prior knowledge and gives you top-notch support at all times, helping you optimize your flows and get even more out of them.

The overall scalability is excellent in Heyflow. We have the ability to work across locations as a team without any limitations; it doesn't matter how many team members we have or how many customers we cover. The scalability and flexibility also allow us to serve our customers with the same account and thus cover different business segments when it comes to online forms.

The service provided is up to date, as discussed before buying.

• Improved lead quality, since we can filter and guide users based on their answers before sending them to sales.
• Faster time-to-market for launching new funnels, reducing development costs.

• Skype made keeping in touch with an advisor in Mexico very easy. The initiative there resulted in 5 new partnerships.
• Skype has helped me with account management for at least 3 customers in LATAM--usually it's a fast way to answer a question about a support renewal.
• For about 9 months Skype helped me stay in touch with a colleague in Prague. We would meet once a week to go over sales activities.
