World-Class Bot Building Platform

Botpress is a great platform with a strong community of developers around the world that are welcoming and open to sharing their time, resources, and elevating best practices among bot builders.

PROS

Botpress offers an economical and code-friendly low-code platform that allows for a range of user skill and experience to begin building scalable applications quickly.

CONS

Ambiguity on feature releases / project update timelines. They're certainly not the only company that ships features without a schedule posted to the public, but it's always nice to have a know in advance when new bells and whistles are coming!

Reason for choosing Botpress

I wanted a low-code platform that didn't abstract away the coding element entirely and still retained enough of a robust developer toolkit that it can be built upon and scaled up gradually or rapidly.

Hi Amit, first, I want to thank you for reviewing Botpress. It's greatly appreciated. I'd love to get the chance to pick your brain on custom widgets and hooks.

An excellent Bot framework that can be deployed totally on premise.

PROS

I have evaluated a dozen other chatbot frameworks but choose to go with Botpress. One of the main things which I like about Botpress is that it can be deployed on-prem and none of the data leaves your organization. It can be customized as you like and as they said, it's like a WordPress for chatbots. Recently Botpress community support started growing.

CONS

There is a learning curve to it. The documentation/blog can be improved to help customers stay motivated.

Reason for choosing Botpress

I used Botpress over the other alternatives because of their out of the box support for ceratin modules like HITL, Analytics, State Management, Test framework, CSM and most importantly the on prem solution.

Vendor Response

Hi Abhishek, thanks for reviewing Botpress and for bringing up the learning curve of our product. We've recently hired great talents to improve the experience. We are also putting more effort into content creation to help the community use Botpress to its fullest potential. Cheers!
