Customerly does a lot of things well
After switching from Intercom—because it became unbearably expensive— we've tried two or three similar products, but ultimately, we chose Customerly. We use it to interact with leads and clients, email and drip campaigns, and host Paymo's Knowledge Base. It offers excellent value for the price, and the support and responsiveness of the team are on another level.
Pros
The workflows are very customizable and allow me to set up advanced drip campaigns, track performance, and ensure each of our customers has a pleasant and helpful onboarding experience. For the level of complexity that it offers, Customerly is pretty intuitive.
Cons
There are no significant issues, only a few features missing that we used in previous software.
Response from Customerly
Thank you so much, Laurentiu, for your kind words and to have chosen Customerly over other solutions. We'll do our best to close any gap and bring you more solutions for the fairest price on the market!

Amazing perfect experience!
Customerly is helping us to improve our support and also increase our clients engagement satisfaction rate.
Pros
The features that provides are the perfect ones in order to run a SaaS business like ours. Is perfect for client support and also notifying them about new updates and product releases. We love the software!!
Cons
Minor aspects are that we would like to make an integration with zapier on our slack channel when we receive a message from a client. But this is super minor. They provider other useful zapier intergations.

Got sick to plans and prices changes
We were coming from an enterprise solution (Intercom) so already knew the value of real-time customer interaction. We simply moved to Customerly for cost reduction, but we'll probably move away for the same reason we left Intercom.
Pros
Even though the quality of the software (issues and bugs) is not comparable with other big companies of this market, there's a very wide set of functionalities.
Cons
We're one of the first customers, using software since beginning of 2017. It started as free forever, then moved to "pay this and you'll get it free forever", than .... opsss.... sorry but you have to migrate to a monthly plan ... than .... opsss .. sorry but we introduce a limit on number of contacts in your plan and you have to move to enterprise plan, than .... opssss ..... by now on if you want to keep your 4 users you have to move to another plan, then.... opssss .... we changed monthly plans again, then .... opsssss... enterprise plan has another limit (not written anywhere) of 5000 contacts, so you have to pay more and now they locked a functionalities.
Honestly we're part of the customers that let Customerly exists right now, and I'm sick of this creative and ridiculous change of plans and costs
Response from Customerly
Hi Federico,
Thank you for your time.
We were expecting this since you threatened us to get a better price on your Customerly account.
During the last 3 years, we updated our pricing based on our client's feedback and finally, we have now well-structured pricing that people can understand and identify with it.
We believe our plans are still competitive against our competitors.
When Federico reached out to send a newsletter to 5K people, he was managing 6,2K contacts that needed an upgrade.
We proposed the related Enterprise plan to manage his grown list of 6,2K contacts.
This system has been built to avoid smart people to take advantage of Customerly and send unlimited newsletter by creating small chunks of contact lists for each send. The exact strategy Federico wanted to use.
We tried to explain this but he just didn't want to listen and preferred to threatening us with this review.
Fortunately, we have thousands of customers that love and respect what we do every day.

Customerly – A Live chat built for startups.
5 Stars - We've used more chat software than we can count on one hand and Customerly take the top by a landslide.
Pros
This software changed how we handle customer support, No more are the days of clunky software with loud bells and alarms to let us know there's a chat incoming, Nowadays we're met with an amazing fluid interface which lets us see important lead information, Set up Tags and Events for email marketing funnels and organise customer chats in an elegant web panel.
It's ease of use is industry leading and for such a young company a start like this is good news.
Cons
There's no real production worthy complaints about this software, One thing to keep in mind is they are a fresh company, They're human and as all new companies and humans, we make mistakes, we learn and we grow - Whilst there's times that the UI or a feature isn't as polished as a big competitor Luca and his team send lots of emails to keep us up to date on what's happening and how to bring even more value to our clients.

There's not many cons to Customerly, the software itself is amazing! I would love to be able to add more users to the Essentials plan rather than having it capped at 3.

The powerful support live chat for any website
I integrate Customerly with my Facebook Fanpage and it worked together well. I never miss any message from my prospectors so far. Great!
Pros
The Customerly always gives me a comfortable feeling once using it for its modern UX design and fast performance. And the more important thing is my audiences have the same feeling as me about the Customerly chat, it's cool.
In addition, the team empowered Customerly with workflow automation which I can send the email drips easily with tag trigger. I can pre-made the workflow and trigger it manually by tag for my clients or my new leads.
To boost the support process faster and better, I can write many support article thank the Customerly Knowledge Base module that I white label it with my Logo and CNAME. (even free user can have it).
Its multi-language support, webhook and API support, the smart assignment is my favorite function as well.
Cons
The live chat widget works fast and stable but the backend dashboard is rather slow performance. I hope it's faster. Need a CDN and new GEO server for my Asia region.

Easy to use, full functionality, best price/performance ratio
First I was so impressed, how easily I installed it and got it working.
Then I was impressed by the functionality offered by the free version, which actually completely covered my initial needs.
Then I was impressed how easy it was to use and extend.
Further I was impressed that I got serious support when I asked something, although I wasn't a 'paying' customer.
And even more I'm impressed how stable this addon is. It just does what I need it to do, and hasn't ever needed my special attention to keep it working.
Pros
It is so easy to install, that one can do it himself, meaning you don't really need a professional to make it work.
And also while it works on my website, I get and can react on notifications while I'm mobile.
Cons
Nothing to mention here. It is really one of these very few times, where I'm completely covered and satisfied, more than I could hope for.

By far the best value for money option out there
Pros
First things first: Customerly does that it needs to do to begin with. Their live chat functionality is great, tons of customisation options, and easy to install + use for users.On top of that, there are a ton of great features to make your life easier that others are charging an absolute premium for. For an early-stage startup I believe it'll be difficult to find a better bang for your buck than Customerly, while having access to premium features the big players use to engage their leads and customers.
Cons
Some small features are missing, like adding buttons to outbound chats, better templates to get started, etc.Overall, those are small compared to the value you're actually getting.
Response from Customerly
Thank you so much Hans for your kind words. We appreciate your help

How Customerly turbocharges our Automotive Startup
Pros
One of the most standout features of Customerly for us has been its seamless integration of live chat and email marketing automation. The platform's user-friendly interface has significantly enhanced our ability to engage with our users in real-time, making the management of support tickets and customer inquiries both efficient and effective.
Cons
The main drawbacks we've noticed with Customerly mostly have to do with user experience and setting up more complex marketing campaigns. When we try to do more with our marketing, like setting up detailed flows, we find that Customerly can get a bit tricky to handle. It feels like you need to jump through a few too many hoops to get things just right. However, it's worth mentioning that, despite these hurdles, everything is still achievable—it just takes a bit more effort and patience.

Promising but horrible non-existant customer service
What started out good turned into a nightmare once the customerly started to import email messages from admin user as chat messages and deleting them from SMTP server. Thus emails never appeared in Google Inbox.
Strangely this was never specifically setup nor could we find any settings that would do this.
We have been trying to contact support for a couple of days now but no one answers. All this while our email inbox is being emptied and we can not stop it.
Absolute nightmare product.
Pros
Price and Feature Set are well balanced.
Cons
Non-responsive support.
Missing help documentation
Convoluted Setup with minimal explanation
Response from Customerly
Hi Roderich,
I'm sorry you had this experience with Customerly.
I'm sure that Gianni has replied to you yesterday explaining how MX works.
If you setup your MX pointed to Customerly we handle all the incoming emails as conversation.
This is a feature of ours is not a nightmare.
When you set up the MX record we flag it as Optional. Is not required.
This was explained from Gianni and you said that was clear to you and was fixed.
If you need any help our customer service now reply in less than 24h thanks to three people that are constantly working on this.
Thanks for your review

Customerly: the best app!
Solved communication via chat with the customer for technical assistance.
Pros
Ease of use and integration with third-party platforms.
Use of notifications also on the app side to be notified immediately.
Cons
It would be nice if there was the functionality in the chat to make a screenshot of the screen so that the customer can easily give us the information necessary to assist him.
Response from Customerly
Thanks for your business Giuseppe. We love all of our customers.
We have a screenshot functionality for your Live chat users :)
It was one of our first feature.

Customerly is amazing!
With Customerly I managed to keep email campaigns, automations, surveys and customer support all together.
Pros
The in-app surveys are amazing! This is probably the unique software that allows you to do surveys via chat widget based on segments of customers.
Cons
Nothing particularly. Probably the e-mail builder could be improved but I know they're working on.

A must to have tool
We've been using the customerly tool for a few months and we're really excited. We have received numerous requests from our site and we have been able to recover some contacts that otherwise we would have lost forever.
It is recommended for those who want to have a support and customer support always online and available that works for you even when you're not there
Pros
It is very simple to use and is complete with all the features necessary for the customer experience
Cons
For the moment nothing, I find it very intuitive and works properly.

Main Language
Happy to be using it! Comes with many great features and is easy to set up. We're currently using Customerly under a lifetime deal. However, we've always wanted our support language in German, not as an additional language but as the main language. Initially, it was only in German but apparently after some updates, it’s now only in English. Upgrading the plan doesn't seem to fit our needs. Does anyone have insights on how we can achieve this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Pros
Many great features and is easy to set up.

It helps me every day in my job dealing with both customer care and marketing
Pros
My favourite feature, concerning customer support, is that you can easily have the recap about the customer you are dealing with like contacts, what he did in the past, licences bought etc.
Cons
The tool for the automatic mail template
Response from Customerly
Thanks for your feedback. We are improving the automation and email builder section.
Thanks again
