Chose Smith.ai
I have priced services with Ngage and Apex Chat. Smith.ai is more cost-efficient than these competitors.

Most services charge a very high per qualified lead basis. Sometimes $35 or higher per lead. Considering that not all qualified leads convert, client acquisition costs can …

Came down to pricing. Smith.ai Live Website Chat did not have the same level of customization and support as other alternatives but there are enough customization and tools that it was clear it would solve the problems and at a good price.
Chose Smith.ai
  1. Better support in setting up.
  2. Better service now that I'm using their system.
  3. Very professional sales team talking and chatting with my prospects.
Chose Smith.ai
We use the Smith.ai Receptionist services. We selected website chat after having a conversation with our account manager who explained the features. We started off with a free trial, but when we saw how many visitors actually use the chat feature and how many relevant chats we …
Chose Smith.ai
We have tried a number of free and annual price chat solutions on the website but this is the first one that is great on mobile devices and intelligent enough to match questions to answers. This has been a hidden gem in delivering new client leads with a lead to client close …

  • Ruby Receptionist - Used it for 1 year. Poor service, not as many features. Smith.ai is light years beyond Ruby.
  • Back Office Betties - Investigated, did not use, mainly because Smith offered 24/7 service and way more chat and text options.
  • Various Virtual Office Services that …
Chose Smith.ai
I have not used other chat services. I use Smith.ai Receptionists and that service from Smith.ai has been flawless, so I went with them for chat as well.
Chose Smith.ai
Quick turn around in providing our office a transcript of the chat. Easy set up for automatic responses.

Smith.ai
Smith.ai Website Chat is an excellent solution for law firm owners that want a cost-effective strategy to capture lead information from website visitors. Our website generates hundreds of visitors each day and over 7,000 visitors per month. I strategically have placed the online chat feature on the contact page on our website to engage with only those potential clients that are serious about retaining our services and making a purchasing decision. I have priced this type of online chat service with several other providers (Ngage, Apex Chat). Some of these providers charge as much as $35 or hire per qualified lead. Smith.ai comes in at approximately $8-$15 per chat session with a potential lead and even offers some flat rate options. There can be further cost savings if only the chatbot feature is used without live agent support. In this option, a website visitor can engage with a chatbot using Automated questions and answers without the need for live agent support. My firm beta tested this product in of it itself and it generated several thousands of dollars in revenue. The customer support has also been exceptional. All the representatives at Smith.ai have been responsive to customer service questions and implementation of the product. Capturing leads with the chatbot feature and the live agent support has even been more profitable. Based on our CRM data, website chat leads generated over $127,500 of revenue for our firm and engaged with 230 potential clients in just the past 12 months.

Cons
Smith.ai
  • Although you can close the chat message, the chat bubble can not be closed and it can cause issues being able to read website content.

Usability
Smith.ai
Smith.ai Live Website Chat allows you to provide a script for when they answer prospective clients. The script is customizable as your needs change. However, the script only goes so far, as they do not know your business personally. Once they do go through that script, they send you an email with the caller's contact information so you can reach out personally if they seem interested. They do so with efficiency.

Support Rating
Smith.ai
Smith.ai pays for itself if we can help one site visitor move down our lead funnel to being a client. We have averaged over 50+ new leads each month since implementing the chat and with a close rate for becoming new clients that is double what our advertising PPC new client closing rate has been.

Return on Investment
Smith.ai
  • Positive - Smith.ai has easily saved me $25k+ in receptionist costs. They probably helped me land another $50k in new business I would otherwise not have brought in the door because they immediately grabbed the client on our website so they didn't get away or have to wait 2 days for a call back. Great ROI (100 to 1 ROI is probably not an exaggeration for my law firm).
