Tidio sucks. They send constant emails saying that your "services have stopped working" in order to get you to upgrade. We fell for it, upgraded, and ended up paying $77/month only to receive additional messages that other services stopped working. They imply that your chat has stopped, but they're just secondary services - but we ended up cancelling because of the pushy, misleading messages. A sleazy way to do business. 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.
UPDATE : We reached out previously about why we were getting the scare-tactic "services stopped working" emails and were not told then that we could optimize our "subscription so you can focus solely on chat." Nope. We just kept receiving them. This is too little, too late. Your scare-tactic upselling is is the reason that we cancelled and NO WAY are we going back, this is much too little much too late. Beware of this from the start if you use this app.
I’m sorry to hear that. We can assist you in optimizing your subscription so you can focus solely on chat. The reason you were receiving these messages is that, for example, your flows were triggering for every visitor, which quickly consumed your quota. By fine-tuning these flows or disabling them for your store, this issue can be resolved. Someone from our team is already reaching out to help you.

Requests are getting lost - I have them coming from the help email to open a ticket, but once the email gets forwarded, it gets lost where it cannot be found.
Do not have expectations that support will help you - it is very slow to get a response, and the responses are not helpful, nor are they live.
Do yourself a favor and do not use this
Hi, I'm really sorry to hear about your experience. Our team worked hard to identify and fix the problem you faced. Unfortunately, we couldn't completely assist you since the app was removed before we could pinpoint the issue. It's possible that the problem might have been related to the forwarding rules in your email client, not Tidio itself. I'd really appreciate the chance to give it another try and fully troubleshoot this for you.
Thank you,

Hard to use
Hi! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. Typically, setting up Tidio takes around 30 minutes. I'd be glad to guide you through the process during a brief call. I'll send you an email soon with more details.

Very confusing app. I linked it to my shopify store the first time, but the appearance was not what I had set and saved. I cleared cache and cookies, but the issue was still there. I had to completely delete it from the store and delete tidio account.
I created a new one, tried linking it to my store and it doesn't link! I have tidio app installed in my store and it is turned on, but in the app itself it says it is not linked.
Aside from that, chatting is available in the free version. Every time I open the app or click anything it shows me that huge pop up asking to upgrade. It is annoying.
Thank you for your review!
I am really sorry that you had so much trouble since the beginning!
The issues that you described can be easily fixed - therefore I have followed up with an email to help you fix them. Let's try together!

This would be a great app if the plans and pricing were executed correctly. I have a 50 lyro limit (which i paid for on three separate sites). At the end of every month they claim I have gone over this limit, even though i have not. I go back and count up all the conversations and i'm never actually over the limit yet they suspend service anyways. Customer service is unhelpful and combative when trying to discuss this. I would not utilize their service until they develop a better approach to doing business in general.
Way Way Way too Expensive and does not work well. You need about $500/mo to run this app. I spent 50 hours setting up the app on the trial. Then, when I chose a plan, it said 250 conversations for $59 per month. But then only AFTER I subscribed, did the system tell me that I also had to subscribe to 3 other apps in order for it to operate. This is misleading at best. we will uninstall and use another app. Support was useless.
The app is good but the tech support is not so good. I have been having an issue of receiving mutiple duplicate emails in our dashboard for over a month now and the team has not been able to resolve the same.
Sometimes their team takes over a week to respond.
I would like to escalate this issue to their senior team so they can resolve my query as soon as possible.
Hi, I'm really sorry to see your review. I'll investigate and do my best to quickly resolve this.

I can get the options I wanted and used during the trial elsewhere for cheaper + unlimited, without the meager limits, and separation of all features which truly should be in one package and not separated like found elsewhere. Counting conversations is a joke, these conversations count every time the bot is loaded. it does the job though, but can get better elsewhere please save yourself the frustration and continue looking elsewhere.

Such a frustrating app and COMPANY. I installed Tidio as I was using Chatra which no longer has integration with Instagram.
There are many issues with Tidio:
You can sync with your Instagram and Facebook accounts, but if you message in these directly it doesn’t show in Tidio, so you can have a conversation but it’s not synced in Tidio.
The count for your usage is wrong - it claims I’ve used 100/100 of my chat bot limit, but I haven’t used any; which will be my next point
I cannot use Lyra the chat bot because apparently my site breaks their T and Cs. When I got through to them they said they don’t support medical / healthcare. We make weightlifng belts so that doesn’t make sense.
The support - they said sorry you don’t meet the standards and that’s it, tough, essentially.
I paid for the basic plan then upgraded to the next plan (thinking this was the issue with the Lyra chat bot). Rather than charged the pro rata difference I was charged THE FULL AMOUNT, so I basically have the first plan and second plan, yet my numbers don’t total the 1+2 level plans.
Really disappointing as this chat app has high reviews but it’s really clunky and missing some good level of support.
