"Best Chatbot Development Platform"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

Chatfuel is a straightforward platform that even thode without prior knowledge in chatbot development can use. Its simpe to use , powerful and scalable. Chatfuel has a wide range of features that allow users to complex chatbots.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

Chatfuel does not offer as many functions and for business with great audience can be expensive for them. Rest of things I am liking the most apart from these two concern I have not found any kind of problem or disadvantage in Chatfuel.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

First of all Chatfuel can be used by any size of organisation. This user friendly tool allows for quick and accurate chatbot development, saving lot of time and resources.Best thing which I get the most of the benefit that is its versatility because it supports integration such as whatsapp,Facebook and Instagram so I can connect with my target audience via their prefrrred channel of communication.

"The "Chatfuelers" are the future Youtubers."
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

At the moment, there are the Youtubers, in a while, there will be the "Chatfuelers". Chatfuel instinctively allows you to create a living character (and not just a great sales/ marketing assistant). I see in Messenger the future marketplace for AI as I see in Chatfuel the new Apple of this marketplace: Using Chatfuel is not only to ensure a bright future, it is also a pleasure. Starting to use it is the best thing you can do, right now.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

It might be good in the future to join other platforms than Messenger or Instagram. The negotiations with Mark must be exciting.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am in the process of creating an assistant for a Hostel and a tourist guide for travelers. My client is delighted.

"Mind blowing bot builder"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

The ease of building a chatbot is just mindblowing. I am not a coder but still I dont face any difficulties in adding any feature

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

If the users were able to make payment within the messenger it would be awesome but I guess thats a Facebook limitation

"Chatfuel is friendly and provides clear instructions"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

I feel their heart is beneath their product which is always the best. They are very friendly and offer clear tutorials. They offered a discount for non-profits. I love the new flow structure and ease of that visually.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

I wish we could export the bot structure if needed. I realize that is probably extremely difficult. Payment options are disappearing soon. I would like them to come back.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are providing emotional support for people 24 hours a day.

"Automate your process in 10mins!"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

Data gathering using chatfuel is the best! The fact that I can create and design the way how will the user will answer the question in messenger and having it real-time available in Google Sheet, this is something every company like ours, will really appreciate!

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

We can't no longer do scheduling to send reminders anymore via Sequence beyond 24hrs. But it's more on Facebook Policy and not Chatfuel's functionality.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

We want to find a way that our target audience can easily onboard their self and avail our program through the chatbot. And Chatfuel actually made it possible! And scaling it up is not a problem :)

"Chatfuel is a brilliant chatbot creation tool!"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

It's simple to use, flow-orientated processing is easy to set up and guide the user through your funnel. Integration with Facebook is a doddle, and it increases the interaction available to our webpage users massively engaging them and making a booking more likley.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

Nothing really, it's all very good. Perhaps a specific template for my business would be great, but I'm in a niche healthcare market so could be difficult. There are limitations to the topics that are possible I think it's 4 maximum chatbot options and it would be nice to occasionally have more options.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

Previously we had lots of web page visitors but some would hesitate and disappear without finding the answers they wanted. With chatfuel they're directly talking to my receptionists who can help them immediately. It's also given us direction on what we need to write and what questions the public are wanting to ask us.

"My experience with chatfuel"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

Its platform is very easy to use, it is not necessary to have a lot of experience to start working. When I took the task of configuring the bot for our operation, I had no previous experience in chatfuel, with its help portal I was able to solve some of my doubts. The integration options and the block type options are many and you have many possibilities to create the ideal workflow. They are constantly updating the portal so that it gives us more options for use.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

If at any time you mistakenly delete a block from your flow or delete a process within a block, you have no option to restore to a previous state and that implies that you have to be backing up your process before you make a change , but as everything can be overlooked do the backup at some point. When you make a change in the flow, it happens in real time where you have it implemented and you cannot be testing without affecting production, you should put a button to upload the changes to production to test it first.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

Estamos resolviendo el problema de capital humano y tiempo de servicio, actualmente nos duda más rentable tener el servicio de bot 24/7 a tener 3 agentes diarios para cubrir el mismo horario, en tiempos de respuesta se han mejorado y los usuarios no dependen de un agente de servicio para cubrir sus necesidades. Dentro de los beneficios que hemos tenido, son el CAC y la incorporación de nuestros productos ha disminuido en un 50% y aún tenemos la capacidad de bajar más ese CAC.

"Campaigning makes easier on facebook"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

I definitely love the branding welcome messages and it works same as the pro plan. That means you get the full features without a pro plan. But its limited to 1000 people but it is a perfect and best way to know the insights of chatfuel. chatfuel does all the things to lift up the clients.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

One dislike for pricing templates. The pricing templates are too high and there are less numbers of templates to use as free.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

Definitely to hold a client over auto bot is the perfect realization for me.

"How can a free tool be so powerful?"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

In my work, I wear a lot of different hats and, while I like to learn, some subjects take longer than I have to give. One of those, it turns out, is learning how to code a Facebook Messenger bot. I needed something free and easy to use -- Chatfuel was miraculously the first tool I tried (and loved!).

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

I really can't complain much; the tool is free! I'd like to see more video functionality and for analytics to be built into the program, rather than provided by outside programs.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

You have to meet your followers where they already are -- and in a lot of cases, that's Facebook Messenger. We needed to build a Facebook bot in a short period of time for little to no cost. Miraculously, ChatFuel was the answer. We have used it to build a simple rapid response team that helps people who subscribe take action on important issues.

The ease of use. Prompt customer support. Ongoing upgrades. Active community forums. Cloning features. Help and troubleshooting to launch on Messenger platforms. Timely updates on Facebook guidelines affecting bots. Program for eligible nonprofits.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

Server seems to slow down at busy times affecting user experience and bot performance.

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

We wanted a mental therapy bot that could interact with users in a human-like way. Linking out Chatfuel bot to Dialogflow has enabled the human-like user experience we were striving for.

"Perfect way to create a chatbot !"
What do you like best about Chatfuel?

I used the blocks way to create a bot. Now I switched to flows and I love it ! Easy to understand, easy to manage, no skill in code needed, it's perfect ! And, it works ! I also like the way to manage time to time non recognised answers and act on what to say when a users types that, and those statistic features.

What do you dislike about Chatfuel?

It's very specific but my price plan was not adapted for my usage. After a talk with the chatfuel team they solved it by adapting it and now it's perfect !

What problems is Chatfuel solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Chatfuel for a small game I created through the messenger chatbot. Now I can manage my game and the new flows even gives me ideas for some more !
