    Indicated for those who have good knowledge of programming and coding in HTML and JSON, that is, it is not suitable for beginners or users without much technical knowledge. It is suitable for those who want to integrate with various platforms, such as Telegram, Webhat, Facebook Messenger, among others. I also recommend it to anyone who needs to create a chatbot in several languages (it is not automatic translation). Recommended to create new projects in CX environment and not in ES.

    Pypestream is suited for standard chatbot and conversational flows versus more multi-departmental scenarios. They do very well with guided flow bot services which are great for agent bots within a contact center, but less so for those implementations that have a large document management implementation for FAQs. They do well with service integrations; however, at times troubleshooting edge cases that are impacting performance and adoption can take a while to remedy. I want to believe that better monitoring tools on the platform side would alleviate this for them.

    Usability
    Google
    Users benefit from Dialogflow's best User Interface and seamless User Experience. It's very scalable, and there are a lot of customization options to make it even more so. Dialogflow makes it simple to deploy, manage, and maintain chatbots. Artificial Intelligence algorithms make chatbots interactive, making it easier for users and chatbots to communicate and understand each other. Overall, it's a good option for those with little programming experience who want to learn Natural Language Processing.

    There is always use cases for both. We still use the other plattforms but each has its own strengths and weaknesses. We, as a contact center implementation partner always use multiple solutions both for ourselves but also for our customers to meet their needs. In the cases we choose Google Cloud Dialogflow is when we need to be able to handle specific follow-up questions from the customer. And for more complicated issues we also use a combination of this and other 3rd party plattforms. We always meet the need of our customers and as specialist and consultants we give expert advice on how to use all these different solutions in the best way possible.

    In comparison to Microsoft Bot Framework or now Azure AI service structure, where Pypestream is better suited is in those organizations who want to truly have a partner in development. Pypestream allows the flexibility for your Dev teams to do it themselves, or to be in a managed service where you provide requirements and information and they build and allow you to test and give approvals. They are more willing to work directly with you versus a Microsoft where you will eventually get pushed off to a 3rd party partner to help with advanced implementations.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • As a partner to multiple contact center plattforms we have always been able to offer Google Cloud Dialogflow along with them because it integrates well with all.
    • Many businesses want to implement smart ways to have call deflection. Bots that can handle full dialogues with the customer is very intriguing to them because it can fulfill customers requests without using up as many resources
