Respond.io is a business messaging platform from the Hong Kong based company of the same name, that connects customers from any channel to every team. As consumers grow to demand personal communication on a wide variety of channels, businesses are looking to their software vendors and partners to innovate and deliver these customer experiences. Respond.io is designed to meet this challenge, simply.
MobileMonkey would be great if you have a really strong social media presence and want to capitalize on people visiting your pages. It's great if you have a tech friendly audience who is not afraid to talk to a chatbot. If you have an audience where they might be uncomfortable or more of an "uptight" audience then it might not be fore you. It's also not great for heavy B2B if your focus is on high level targets as they're likely not logged in to Facebook at work. B2C is probably the best function for MobileMonkey, although it could be used to help field support messages.

The company's sales funnel support is well represented in Respond.io. I like how its workflow is configured with the initial support bot. It filters and provides a summary of the customer's needs, making the advisor's job easier. Calls are something the platform is sorely lacking. I understand they are under development and something we're eagerly awaiting at the company to be able to track more efficiently on a single platform. La atención del embudo de ventas de la compañía está bien representada en Respond.io me gusta como se configura su flujo de trabajo con el BOT de atención inicial, filtra y me entrega resumen de la necesidad del cliente haciendo más fácil el trabajo del asesor. Las llamadas son algo que le hace mucha falta a la plataforma, entiendo que se encuentra en desarrollo y es algo que esperamos con ansias en la compañía para poder hacer un seguimiento más eficiente en una sola plataforma.

It has been very useful for us with very innovative functions and it has the ability to adapt to our operation according to the needs that our administrator indicates to them, and that is very efficient. Besides, it is easy for users to adapt; the functions are very intuitive and easy to implement.
MobileMonkey support is second to none when you have a paid plan. Always willing to help and make your life a lot easier when you're facing any technical difficulties or frustrations. When I was on the free plan, I found plenty of useful resources that helped me solve my problems, and I could still contact support for help.

MobileMonkey is a lot less expensive than both Olark and Drift. We chose MobileMonkey because we were hoping the familiar interface and integration between social and the website would drive more interest which would lead to conversion and revenue. It's more of a chatbot than Intercom in that Intercom is really good for customer support, but MM is a nice way to get people interested by sharing high level data through a conversation that doesn't require a real person. However, Olark, Drift, and Intercom all integrate with the major CRMs and marketing automation platforms which gives them a real edge over MobileMonkey at this time.

In my opinion, Respond.io is by far the most user-friendly platform out of other similar products. Other advantages rely on features such as AI Agents and automated workflows that are easily adaptable to our company's needs. Lastly. customer support from the Respond.io is admirable, being at all times better than their competitors.
The cost of the solution, as compared to our previous solution, has meant that we now pay 50% less than our previous solution for a MUCH superior offering.
We are able to have a single agent (versus multiple agents previously) in our busy season and they are able to keep up with the load of queries being sent through.
The setup time, and integration of new channels into the mix has meant that Respond.io keeps up with the market trends, and we don't have to search for other solutions to engage with our customers - This has saved major amounts of time.
