ManyChat headquartered in San Francisco provides their chatbot building platform to deploy Facebook messenger chatbots for support and service.
Great for the site embedded. Ideal for advertising traffic—conversion up to 20%. Not suitable for creating bots in instant messengers. Still, there are other more convenient services for this. Waiting for improvements, human takeover, redesign, and proactive mobile redesign.
ManyChat is extremely easy to set up on your Facebook business page and Instagram account. Even if you just want to try it out, the free plan is great to get started. If you want to provide a freebie or 24/7 customer support, you can get it done with ManyChat.
ManyChat has a Facebook comment feature that when your audience comments on a particular post on your Facebook page then send them the information you have promised them. Once set up, is all on autopilot.
We have the ManyChat plugin on our website to act as a customer service chat feature for those looking for help and engage with us.
Have some great integrations on the pro account with payment gateways such as Stripe that allows you to charge your clients and receive money.
Keywords Jump Feature: As a feature, it is good. But there is a scope of improvement that I see. In our Business, there are a lot of words that are similar for example Bearing/Bear ring/Bearing. So, at times the bot takes some time to find the exact keyword what the user wants and then route it accordingly. Most of the time, it does right, but at times it doesn't.
ManyChat is a great tool, provides loads of features, integrations and just saves you a whole load of time once all set up. If you aren't tech-savvy or used to how digital marketing tools work, it can appear complicated. That's how I felt initially 2 years ago, and after watching tutorials online I had a better understanding of it. This is why I rated it a 7, as it's not a tool that you can just play around with and guess how it works. There's definitely a learning curve with it so I recommend doing the free training and watching video tutorials.
There is room for improvement but frankly, we haven't had the need to request for support. Everything is pretty easy to setup and there are very useful video explanation guides and walkthroughs on ManyChat's YouTube channel. The only challenge we have had was to integrate it with Zapier, it's a bit tricky because you need to do a setup workaround first, but nothing too complicated.
Drift is quite pricey, on the cost part, Landbot was much better with almost similar features. Also, on the UI front, Landbot was a pretty decent tool compared with Drift or MobileMonkey. The usage was easy, the reporting was very easy to get. Considering all these parameters, we chose Landbot for our Organization.
For the initial purpose of getting ManyChat, none of the alternatives worked either. We ended up creating a mobile app to meet the need. For incoming support automation, using the native features within Facebook has been effective as well as using GoHighLevel and Continual.ly. ManyChat was considerably more effective, but with the price increase and the non-necessity of carrying another subscription for incoming message support, it wasn't a logical choice to keep the service.
We mostly had a positive impact with this tool. With our chat channel, we increased our new customer rate by 15% and return customer rate by 10%. We are seeing some decent returns with the tool.
We have a very positive ROI for our business. We have been generating about 10 leads a month. We are currently closing on 10% of those, so 1 new client a month. We are working on ways to improve that conversion percentage.
We generate around 50 leads a month for a client of ours. Their conversion is about 25% Their average ticket is 1,500.00 which puts them to about 15-20 thousand a month.
