tawk.to vs. WixAnswers.com

We have been able to increase our "real world" presence on our website, providing users with support and sales guidance when they need it the most – when they have a question. It provides the extension for free. Furthermore, tawk.to provides tracking solutions for your website, allowing you to see how many visitors visited your site and how long they stayed. You can also see which locations follow your webpage. The low-footprint, web-based solution is simple to install and use (in most cases), and it provides insight into the effectiveness of our web pages and sites.

We only use it for the online knowledge base, so I can't speak to the rest of the functionality. However, building out the knowledge base works very well and is quick and easy to use.

• Live Chat
• Knowledge base / Ticket system
• Internal Communication with team

Incentivized

• Usability - very easy to set up, brand, configure and continue to add new articles ongoing
• Localization - Connecting with Crowding allows to easily localize articles using AI
• Article creation - very simple, easy to build, organize and publish.

• It would be great to be able to quickly access pre-prepared responses directly from tawk.to.
• It would be great to be able to link directly to email so you can send templates to contacts.

Incentivized

• Localization - Although this works with crowdin integration, really would be great if it was all built in and more seamless.
• Insights - very limited reporting, only goes back around 90 days.
• New features - I haven't really seen any new features or functionality in the 2+ years I've been using it.

tawk.to offers free basic live chat with no restrictions. I mean, before you go straight to Intercom, try tawk.to first. Sure, other platforms have a better feature set and more customization options, but all of them seem prohibitively expensive for a small business, especially when most aren't even sure if live chat is for them in the first place. tawk.to is a good platform for figuring that out. tawk.to provides me with exactly what I require, with no hassles and plenty of power. There has never been a problem with uptime or service.

We ultimately selected Wix Answers for the price and that we could localize the platform and articles. WIth WixAnswers the cost is based on users, since our users were low the price was very economical for our needs.

• Engaging with customers directly with live chat.
• Gather customer data for live chat support.

Incentivized

• Online knowledge base was critical for our platform. With the price that we pay for this service, it more than pays for itself.
