JivoChat makes it really easy to communicate with customers. It is best for small and medium sales and customer support teams. The team members can even communicate between each other, so it has a use case outside of client facing communication. It has convenient (yet minimal) CRM features. It's a bit overkill for individual website owners, but definitely one of the best Chat Apps out there for teams.

Optimizely Data Platform is a great tool for teams who look to use open-source tools over tools with white glove service. You do get a dedicated customer success manager and access to their (almost) 24/7 support team via chat, but the real benefits of the platform stand to be unlocked by teams who enjoy getting their hands dirty.

  • Automation of data from other platforms such as our ERP.
  • The approval process needs work. I should be able to flag fields that have issues and give users feedback if a product is rejected.

There's so much that needs to be improved and it seems like not much has happened since Optimizely first took over. When Optimizely did take over, they reduced the UX of campaign reporting.

  • Creating reports can be difficult and they aren't very visual.
  • There is not much control you can have with your imported product catalog. Product filters can be difficult to use.
  • Manually importing customers is a more difficult process from when I was using Mailchimp 10 years ago.
  • Figuring out how to inject a module onto a page is difficult.
  • Figuring out how to get off an email blacklist is near impossible even with ip warming. Very little help here.

We have a home built CRM. From start to finish our implementation was a nightmare loaded with problems that destroyed my initial trust with the platform.

We've used Gist for the same purpose, but the integration with communications channels were lacking. There was no WhatsApp integration or Facebook Messenger integration at the time we used it. The notification system wasn't effective. We've missed lots of client messages, which were basically missed sales opportunities. The live chat widget for the website made the loading speeds very long which resulted in bad performance metric scores. JivoChat looks like it's a good solution for all these.

Oh my goodness, there were many, including:
  • Klaviyo
  • Salesforce Email Marketing Cloud
  • Bronto
  • Marapost (the worst experience we ever had. We used them for the longest year on earth).
  • Silverpop (IBM)
  • I forgot their name but they are based in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania.
  • Exact Target
  • Active Campaign
  • Get Response
  • Drip
  • SendInBlue
  • And more I cannot remember. We spent over six months looking at everything.

Return on Investment
JivoChat
  • JivoChat is important in promoting the online learning session.
  • Online learning was never easy before using this application and live streaming is much more feasible than any other thing.
  • We can’t place the call with a huge group that’s why to read the instruction before using this application and install the tool with the complete network coverage.
