Tidio ‑ Live Chat & AI Chatbot

This has an expensive and complex price structure, involving paying for flows, then chats, then customer service. I paid for a plan and in 1 day I needed to upgrade again!! if you have any starter plans then you still cannot see crucial information. Just beware, if you want full functionality monthly for a half decent website you will probably land up paying $300 pm not $59 as advertised.

Was told I had to just click a review (bad, good or great) to get some bonus points, but then after clicking told I need to write a review on shopify. Bit misleading considering the app is good lol.

Inferior support made it difficult to go forward. I have a strong technical background and went through the setup and integrations fine on my own. I had a few questions that I did not see options for. For example "Is there a timeout period in the chat where the visitor asks the first question and doesnt get a response for a long enough period of time that they will be offered the ability create a ticket and be followed up on. Kate in support told me multiple times that it doesn't exist and you need to set your user as being AWAY which is obvious. But users dont always remember this and professional chat systems usually have a time out period and offer this option to the customer. After many "No, we don't have that" answers and me posing the question multiple different ways (15 minutes), she finally told me "yeah, we have that" and then kept forwarding me to the wrong page. My first day and few incidents like that. It was not worth the trouble and I uninstalled. It was a 15 minute waste to setup and make email and dns changes and 30 minutes of suffering with poor support and frustration and I got nowhere and she would not escalate the question. The company needs to hire more carefully, train more carefully and monitor the support reps. This one may have slipped throught the cracks, but I don't have time to play around. The reason that I did not give a 1 star, is that I believe that the product mihgt be good and offers the right features that I needed. But the app includes the whole package and without support becomes useless.

Edited 06-16-25: I am editing this review, because of the company's ignorance in addressing the issues mentioned and trying to publicly deflect or discount their shortcomings.
1. What you are saying that I called a timeout included with a full explanation in the chat is EXACTLY what you are calling a FALLBACK FLOW. If you can not see this, then you too have an issue.
2. The screen shots and url which I showed are EXACTLY the same page yet had different options, perhaps due to a permissions issue or subscription level.
3. Then she asked me for a PUBLIC key, which is not something that we would share. If I have a key that she does not know about, then it is kept secret for a reason. In addition, if you believe what you have said is true, then she had no need to ever ask for a PUBLIC key.

The bottom line is that I got inferior support which the company itself hired and trained and is not trying to publicly dilute or discount my review. You surely would have been more successful sending me a personal email and saying something like "We are really sorry about the shortfall that you had with support and we are going to use this information to help improve our support...and once we do, we will let you know and hope that you will consider trying us again". In that case, with that kind of sincerity, I would believe that the company genuinely cares and will take steps to improve and I probably would have removed my review and would possibly try it gain in the future if I didn't find an app that fit the bill in the meantime.

The app seems incredibly promising but it's unclear in terms of how to scale it and use it - we have previously asked for an overview and the support agent missed our meetings twice and messaging execs or anyone was flatly ignored. Despite this we have gone with Tidio and while everything seems so incredibly promising. the only promise of support has been severely lacking

It could be great but it's very buggy and it takes massive resources from your shop, immediately downgrading the LCP and INP shop performance (speed) once you install it and activate it, which will ruin the Google ranking considerably.

When you try to integrate it you're met with a white blank screen and have to jump around to try and figure out what's going on. If your email for the store differs from the Shopify email, it appears to be unable to do a recognised integration and installation even if you've installed it, which becomes messy.

Support never seem available, and they appear to use their own bots for support which is not helpful. Who has time to wait days one end to get a response when you're working on integrating it? By the time they get back to you (if they ever; I never got a response) you've moved on to something else that works.

Stopped working after 2 years didn't bother to figure out why I just asked customer to a service to delete my account

this app is confusing pricing is confusing it has three tier what shown on the UI you end up paying around $100 for chatbots which is ok if it actually look at your product and create knowledge it is not. even you are paying $100 you are still tied to total 100 message its very costly

That's good for the service

I left 6 months ago because all the replies to mobiles were jumbled and went with shopify inbox. Now its gone i've had to come back but i have the same problem. No one can read my replies via mobile. Also I find alot of the replies go to peoples junk mail and they never see them. I think its better to reply in the app.

Tidio requested that I review their plugin. The app barely works so my employee uses it in a browser tab. It works but could be a lot better.
