I’d say ProProfs Chat is a better alternative to Tawk.to.

My reasons for saying so is purely based on the comparison I’ve seen so far between the two tools.

Let’s take a look at some of the areas where ProProfs Chat stands out as the best alternative to Tawk.to

1. Price

Everyone knows that Tawk.to offers a free live chat tool, but even this free package seems to have a catch.

Tawk.to have an agent pricing that starts at $1/agent/hour. Yes, you’ve read it correctly. Tawk.to apparently charges its customers on an hourly basis.

That can turn out to be an expensive deal for businesses who may wish to go ahead with a 24X7 support cycle. Just imagine you have 10 agents, 5 working in day shift and 5 working in night shift. Even if each gives an output of 9-10 hours a day, that means you’d be paying $100 for a day!

That’s a lot of investment. And definitely, not a great deal for startups in business.

On the other hand, ProProfs Chat charges $15/user/month which is still cheap for a business to afford because it is a monthly rate and not an hourly one.

2. Features

There are a lot of features that you won’t come across in Tawk.to. However, ProProfs Chat offers them at a great price.

Some of these features that Tawk.to lacks include:

  • Chat Transfer

  • Automatic Greetings

  • Custom Greetings

  • Announcement

  • Automatic Chat Routing

  • Call Back

  • Chat Queue

  • Ticket Tags

  • Ticket Reports

  • Export Reports

  • Integration with CRM, Email Marketing, Analytics, Knowledge Base Platforms

I hope this helps you out!
