Considered Both Products

Chose Conversica
Conversica allowed us to be more versatile and it was a lot more customizable than intercom. Intercom was limited in many ways where it did not allow us to make certain customizations or get the level of reporting that we needed. Conversica solved all this and the AI was a …
Chose Conversica
Conversica outdoes the competition when it comes to auto drip campaigns - while two of the above products are mainly used for mass emailing, both Sendinblue and Velocify have automatic feature suites that simply do not have the customization and ease of use that makes …
Chose Conversica
Conversica was the first AI/Automated messaging service we have implemented.
Chose Conversica
We looked at automating our first response to inbound leads using automated emails from a Salesloft cadence. It works for the first email but then you're relying on your sales reps to pick it up from there. Conversica has that tenacity and persistency to keep on going until the …
Chose Conversica
As a company, none of which I am aware.
Chose Conversica
Usage of tool and adaption to our needs and established company that has proven it before.
Chose Conversica
I have not used any other or evaluated any other tools - Conversica came as a recommendation from an internal team member.
Chose Conversica
We did not specifically look for alternatives with the same capability. While we have looked at other AI tools, they were in slightly different areas.
Chose Conversica
N/A - we didn't look at other similar solutions.
Chose Conversica
Conversica was more cost-effective than Drift.
Chose Conversica
One major advantage that Conversica has over the others is that we are able to send the first outreach from Conversica, instead of our own marketing email IP address.
Chose Conversica
I haven't looked into many other conversational ai products - we received a solid recommendation about using this and have been happy with the process and experience. Price was also pretty good, so we didn't feel a need to shop around on that front. If things change I'll do …
Chose Conversica
Have not really used anything that actually does what Conversica does. Marketo and Pardot are similar only the fact that they automate email streams. But they don't use an AI to respond in a human-like way. Drift is similar only the fact that it uses an AI to respond, but it …
Chose Conversica
We haven’t looked at much but we considered Salesforce as a possible tool to help with keeping track of our leads. Wouldn’t have done what Conversica does for us though.
Chose Conversica
We didn't evaluate anything else like Conversica because it seemed to be the only AI of its kind out there. We have been using other solutions like email marketing software and drip campaigns, however, nothing has the capabilities that Conversica has. Out of our efforts, …
Chose Conversica
We evaluated SalesboxAI at the same time we were evaluating Conversica. We had a great experience with both and also talked with other people that were using Conversica in the process. We thought that Conversica had more time in service, as an AI was a real factor in …
Chose Conversica
Conversica is really in a category of its own. There isn’t anything like it on the market. We wanted a technology that would help us automate follow up in a strategic and thoughtful way and that we could trust to engage and follow up wisely. We found this in Conversica. It’s …
Chose Conversica
Again, I wasn't involved in this process, so I can not accurately rate how Conversica stacks up. I do know that when we first had Conversica it was AVA and coming up with our own script for each email campaign took quite a while and not as effective. I do like that Conversica …
Chose Conversica
Our company is currently moving towards AI, so Conversica suited our goal.
Chose Conversica
We haven't used anything else or looked at any other tools. This works for us now, but I'm hoping improvements come in customization.

Chose SAP Service Cloud
Zoho Desk is the ultimate software for clear communication, but when we compared these two according to our needs, we found out that SAP Service Cloud is the best option for us. Since it provides everything in one location, Zoho Desk is somewhat lacking in this area. That was …

SAP Service Cloud came out cheaper and tied in a lot better with out other SAP products. It was well established and the logic within the product made it a consistent and well structured solution compared to Salesforce.

Service cloud is faster than Salesforce. Smooth configuration.

Since we already had SAP sales cloud V1, it was logical for us to enable service capabilities in the same tenant. (no additional effort for the integration and change management for the users).

During evaluation , we found sap service cloud is better in all aspects especially ease to use.

Freshdesk is a lightweight service system that allows a small team to start handling service interactions quickly, in a professional manner. However, our observation was that it does not scale to Enterprise-level and does not have the same level of integration, customisability, …

SAP Service Cloud's system works better because in case we have any issues we are easily able to connect with the SPOC and get our issues resolved. Whereas with the other system it takes us time to connect and get a resolution. Also our agents are more comfortable using SAP …
Chose SAP Service Cloud
We select this service because we already have deploy Sap Business One. The other services works great, but lack in compliance and security that we need it at the time. In term of pricing is more expensive but far more robust. We attent thousand of people and uptime should be …

AI features are behind what Microsoft offers in its Dynamics 365 Customer Service, but as we already had other SAP products, the integration was easier with SAP Service Cloud. Implementation time was a key aspect of our project.

Conversica is a good platform for us when used post event. It takes the Inside sales work out of following up on cold or potentially non-responsive leads and still allows us to create touchpoints with the leads. It has also worked fairly well as a follow up for media downloads on our site to gain additional interest or segmentation variables.

SAP Service Cloud is well suited with its omni-channel capabilities giving the possibility to collect service requests from different channels like phone, e-mail or CTI telephony. It also has nice User Interface (when it comes to desktop version). On the other hand SAP Service Cloud needs to be definitiely improved in terms of mobile app, which is horrible and it has limited development possibilities.

Cons
  • We would love more options for conversation types. Our organization has so many different things that we offer, we sometimes don't find how what we are trying to offer would fit into a current conversation.
  • We would like to be able to customize the text on the templates a bit more so it was more relevant to our readers.
  • We would love for Conversica to remember conversations from each individual so that if they are engaged again in a future conversation it will already have a profile for that individual which will help to create a more personal touch and could assist with replying to certain requests themselves verse assigning a sales person to reply.

  • Integrating SAP Service Cloud with non-SAP systems can be challenging, i faced some hurdles when my IT team took 3 months to integrate the billing data from some other vendor and the system would run slow if you try to pull billing data
  • Slow loading of the pages as compared to other consumer tech softwares we use
  • Implementation costs and complexity of implementation makes it an option only for large enterprises with huge IT teams (and it can take a few months to implement)

Tool is extremely powerful but comes with a heavy price tag. As long as we close more than 30 deals with year with Conversica's assistance it will be an easy choice to renew. If we don't we will have to figure out if these funds are best spent in other lead generation places.

Our CSM is great and always willing to help us try new ideas. She's always aware of what's happening on our account and will point out anything abnormal. She's also constantly looking at ensuring that we're making the most of everything that Conversica has to offer. Even though they're out of my time zone, they accommodate it meaning that I don't have to work out of hours to get support.

I have found that sometimes issues reported to the SAP takes more time also they lack system support with respect to the priority . Also we don't see RCA for the issues raised. Also turn around time for the issues is not fixed as the support is global sometimes the issues float here and there.

Implementation Rating
It takes a minute to get set up, but once you're good it doesn't take a ton of effort. I'd say we took 4-6 weeks to get lists built, people trained, things installed and the rest of the setup. Not the easiest thing, but far from the hardest software that I've ever installed that sits in Salesforce.

Zoho Desk is the ultimate software for clear communication, but when we compared these two according to our needs, we found out that SAP Service Cloud is the best option for us. Since it provides everything in one location, Zoho Desk is somewhat lacking in this area. That was the reason for choosing SAP Service Cloud.
