Facebook Messenger Chatbot-building made easy!

PROS

Of all the things Chatfuel brings to the table the one I consider my favorite one is its Drag-and-Drop builder for creating chatbots. No coding or any special skill required, simply click on a button, select the options that you prefer and set that up. Then, repeat the same process to add additional steps to your chatbot... it doesn't get much easier than that!

CONS

Chatfuel focuses on Facebook Messenger only but it would be great to be able to leverage some of its chatbot features somewhere else, like on my website, for example. It's clear that the company decided to focus on a specific platform, and that's ok, but the idea of potentially rely only on one tool for all things chatbots...

A good chatbot for your Facebook messages!

PROS

We signed up for the paid program because we had very good results with the free trial. It is a fairly cheap plan and the chat is quite decisive. It allows us to serve our customers quickly and effectively.

CONS

Sometimes some customers are not satisfied with the answers but it happens with all chatbots.

A product that could give much more

Overall experience little more than adequate. The few publishing channels available and the mixed approach between blocks and flows makes the work fragmented and not optimized, which is a shame.

PROS

From the beginning, I appreciated the ease of use and organization of the work area. Initially, it was among the first platforms to allow integration with external systems to create interesting automations and webviews.

CONS

Chatfuel's pace of growth could certainly be greater. The flow designer arrived years after the various competitors and, all today, is lacking in some functionalities. The block approach is still standing, but the platform should instead turn and convert completely to the flow designer.

Great chat bot tool for beginners

This is a solid tool for building your first bots. It also has a free plan, which is what I used first to get started. I like the straight-forward approach and simple interface. It's easy to create a bot and you can take it into different directions. Plenty of documentation available as well. Overall this is a good tool, definitely one of the better chat bot tools I've personally tested. Worth checking out in my opinion.

PROS

I found this a very straight-forward chat bot tool for beginners. I was new to building chat bots but found this easy to work with. My first chat bot worked just the way I expected and I even got inspiration to make it more advanced. It all seemed do-able thanks to the step by step instructions. Other tools I've tried had more settings and options, making it a little more complicated. Chatfuel keeps things simple and also has advanced features if you want to use them.

CONS

It's not as advanced as other tools on my first inspection but pretty much does most of the things you would want to achieve with a bot. So overall there's not much to dislike here.

Good for Messenger

Overall the conclusion is that you can build only simple chatbots. I don't recommend chatfuel for complex chatbots but highly recommended for prototyping bots. You can build use some available templates to build bots.

PROS

Chatfuel is easy to use and deploy a chatbot on messenger in a few mins. Best chatbot development platform for Facebook messenger bot as it allows user to one-click sign up with your Facebook account and many pre-built chatbot templates as well. Best of beginner and a non-techie guy to start building their messenger bot. An important thing is, You can build your chatbot for free.

CONS

You can deploy your chatbot on Facebook only and personally I don't like this. Also, you need a Facebook account to sign-up and build a messenger bot. You cannot build any complex chatbots on chatfuel. NLP is not good enough as it should be. Sometimes my bot failed to recognize the user's inputs and does not respond. Documentation is also poor. There is no support for subroutines, jumping around a conversation.

Chatfuel, le meilleur

Bien que Chatfuel soit un logiciel coûteux pour des personnes avec de budget limité, c'est un outil très puissant pour la conception de chatbots pour tous; même ceux qui n'ont pas de compétences en programmation.

PROS

Chatfuel est simple d'utilisation. Il permet aux personnes non techniques de pouvoir créer facilement et rapidement des chatbots de manière intuitive. De plus, vous pouvez le relier à plusieurs d'autres plateformes dans le but de rendre performant votre chatbot.

CONS

La version gratuite de Chafuel présente parfois des limitations à des paramètres avancés. Ce qui nécessite d'allouer un budget souvent élevé pour bénéficier entièrement du logiciel.

Util pero difícil de implementar

Fue muy útil en una época, pero creo que ahora hay software que hacen el mismo trabajo de una forma más fácil y dedicarle menos tiempo.

PROS

Se pueden crear respuestas automatizadas para atención al cliente, crear un flujo de procesos para llevar al cliente a la compra, enviar broadcast en facebook, Instagram y otras aplicaciones

CONS

Es muy complejo de usar, el entorno gráfico es un poco complejo, sacarle provecho a todas las utilices es un poco difícil

Reasons for switching to Chatfuel

Sendpulse es más económico y más fácil de usar; también tiene otras utilidades que no tiene Chatfuel

Se utilizó durante 3 años, pero siento que fue perdida de dinero, ya que existían mejores aplicaciones y con mejor precio.

PROS

En realidad al principio me gustó porque ayudaba a automatizar el chat con los potenciales clientes que llegaban a nuestras redes sociales, pero luego siento que quedó obsoleto .

CONS

El costo es bastante alto, y la asistencia no es muy buena ni rápida , y hay otras aplicaciones más fáciles de utilizar y con un precio muchísimo menor!

Reason for choosing Chatfuel

Al principio era el mejor hace 3 años, pero actualmente en pleno 2022 hay mejores plataformas que chatfuel.

Not having to know coding was a huge plus in selecting Chatfuel. I also really like that you can duplicate messaging tracks for multiple Facebook pages, which saves time when you're setting up several channels.

CONS

I didn't find Chatfuel to be completely intuitive. Setting up our messaging journey was time-consuming.

It has every feature that you can need with bots. The ease of sharing a bot is appreciated! This is an extremely feature rich platform. I have confidence with this platform over any other. With all they keep adding in features, I know they'll stay on the cutting edge.

Ok. This is confusing to use. It's got so much features without the intuitive thought on how to make it easy. Not an appealing interface to work with.

Boost your growth with an efficient chatbot !

My bot could answer to my clients when I was focusing on my product, my SEO, making money etc...

PROS

For my own little business, I need only the free trial at this moment. I could build a scenarii when visitors come to my facebook page. With my bot, I can ask questions to visitors, and answer to theirs even when I sleep. I also collect a lot of valuable mail adresses !

CONS

You'll need probably one day before understanding/experiencing all you can do with this tool. So take time to watch/read tutorials.

CONS

Its a great tool for building basic chatbots which support analog functions (condition based) but if you want to get a little more advanced (integrate your CRM system to fetch data etc.) it lags behind in that way.
