The useful parts. The trade-offs.

Why consider it

No per-agent charge for self-managed chat

Hosted operation reduces server work

What to keep in mind

Vendor branding remains without an upgrade

Your team still needs to staff the chat

How to use it well

Add the widget to a small set of pages and configure business hours before inviting visitors to chat. Give agents a clear handoff process and a few approved responses for common questions, then check the mobile app’s notification behavior.

The software is free when your own team handles conversations. That does not provide a staffed support desk automatically. Review response times and offline messages as traffic grows, and evaluate optional hired-agent or branding services only if they solve a specific operational need.
