I use ManyChat for Messenger and Instagram automation. It's easy to set up and works perfectly mainly when the account gets a lot of messages in Messenger or Instagram. My clients use ManyChat to collect email and phone numbers and provide updates once a set of conditions are met. Plus my clients have an omnichannel presence, their customers can get in touch with them via messenger, Instagram, SMS, and email.
Pros

More than one ways for people to opt into your bot

Great to build a relationship with your followers on Instagram
Cons

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.
We use Manychat for lead generation and nurture automation inside of Facebook. Most of our message bots are quiz-style to find products/services that work for our leads. We also integrate it with SharpSpring, our automation software by using Zapier. That way all of our leads are in one place.
Pros
They have a great flow builder that makes it easy to create new bots.
I love their A/B tester. You can create 2 (or 3 or 4) different paths for a lead to go down, then set it to what percentage of leads you want to go down each path. The chatbot handles it from there. This makes it easy to test different questions, verbiage, images or anything else to see what is most popular with your leads.
Their custom fields make it easy to gather whatever information you want to gather, and the Zapier integration makes it easy to send that information to our automation platform.
Cons
Honestly, the only thing I don't like about ManyChat is their support. It seems to be almost non existent. However, that concern is negated by having a fantastic user base that helps each other out on Facebook.

We use ManyChat to gather leads for our clients (as well as ourselves). Like I mentioned earlier, it works great for quiz-style bots. I've seen it used for coupons and for frequently asked questions. I have even seen it used to give a lead the estimated value of their house! I don't know a scenario on Facebook where it wouldn't work.
