Chatfuel
Chatfuel is great for a small team looking to easily implement and set up Facebook chatbots for their clients for ease of community management, etc. Chatfuel is not necessarily meant for large scale operations that require complex workflows and chatbot requirements, it is limited to Facebook Messenger and is not 100% intuitive in this regard.

Zoom
Really great for customers that have experience with chatbots and want a powerful platform that is continuing to evolve. It has been one of the most accurate platforms for generative AI responses and has great tools for administering the platform in a scalable manner. The tool has greatest utility for companies with existing knowledge bases that can be leveraged and with a team that can dedicate resources to continually evolving the implementation to take full advantage of the tool.

Zoom
  • Add more native components for integrating with data sources such as a CRM
  • Methodology for session counts: avoid double counting a session if a user is handed-off between bots.
  • Admin UI: there can be a lot of clicks to navigate to the correct area of the dashboard to manage settings

Alternatives Considered
Chatfuel
Both offer bot service to reply to messages from Facebook. The difference is that Chatfuel gives you the option of being able to create conversion funnels or fixed conversation changes.
Connecting to our API is free from Chatfuel and integration with other providers has an additional cost.
AIVO has no option to create conversation flows if not through keywords.
