Our Verdict

One of the stronger omnichannel conversation CRMs — great for sales teams, assuming you want a product, not an API.

Pros

  • Omnichannel inbox across WhatsApp, Messenger, IG, TikTok
  • Automation builder powerful without being code-only
  • Strong reporting and agent management features
  • Clear pricing with generous channel flexibility

Cons

  • Not a raw CPaaS — you still need BSP/Meta approvals
  • Learning curve on advanced automations and AI
  • Pricing climbs with contacts and AI usage
  • Some platform changes ship with minimal notice
Best for: Sales and support teams juggling WhatsApp, Messenger and IG in one inbox Not for: Dev teams wanting a raw CPaaS API rather than a conversation CRM
