## Reviews

### "Centralize knowledge based content." — 4.0/5

> **Ryan** | *16 February 2026* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One central knowledge base feeds all chatbot responses and help articles, avoiding mismatched answers across channels and simplifying content management.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like that Helpfruit doesn’t offer a true free version, only trials meaning you can’t test long-term without committing to a paid plan.
> 
> Helpfruit is a capable omnichannel self-service and chatbot platform that brings AI-powered customer support directly to the channels your audience uses most. It’s easy to configure, centralizes knowledge base content, and delivers strong chatbot performance with useful analytics.

### "Your new Digital savvy Employee" — 5.0/5

> **Brent** | *12 May 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: FAQBot has delivered our first digital employee. Attentive, accessible, personal and always on we've tackled a more than 30% uplift in demand into our contact centre without adding FTE.  We are always looking at ways for end users to self-serve and find information from our website and knowledge base to answer their questions and FAQ bot makes it easy to amplify existing content.  We no longer wate time answering repeatable questions. We also get a lot of analytics and data with our interactions which is a unique selling point. We love our digital employee - Dot; they're awesome.
> 
> **Cons**: None from our experience. We couldn't find any issues.
> 
> This is a cost effective solution to solving repeatable enquiries and delvierying a user experience 24/7. It helps manage demand without FTE. Being cloud based you also benefit from others experiences and they are invested in their technology roadmap so you are always getting access to new features and improvements. They are also expert at doing chat bots rather than it being an add on service so are committed to the customer experience.

### "FAQ Bot review" — 5.0/5

> **Caleb** | *16 March 2021* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to add a variety of questions straight from customer questions allowing us to capture a variety of ways in which an individual may talk to the FAQ bot. 

Being able to test these conversations and see the potential responses before the FAQ bot is released into a live environment.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to be able to be more selective about the content that I publish. Being able to choose which items I publish after testing would be ideal
> 
> Great ease of use with brilliant customer support. Very easy to get support in order to navigate my way around a lack of understanding or optimal ways to achieve a goal.

The UI is very simple and makes sense with options not being hidden or placed where I would not expect them to be. The ease of use means I am exploring potential functions we have not implemented rather than looking for functions I feel should exist.

### "Great customer support tool\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jelle** | *1 June 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: FAQ Bot was very easy to setup and configure with questions and answers within my company. New team members can easily contribute due to the good UI.
> 
> **Cons**: I wished they had a free version to be able to try the software before purchasing it. Luckily FAQ Bot is relatively not so expensive. I would like FAQ Bot to have more functionalities.

### "FAQbot experience" — 5.0/5

> **Elise** | *17 June 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] from FAQbot gave us a great comprehensive demo of the product and from there we were able to use it with ease. Once the FAQbot was live on our site it was great to be able to monitor the conversations and easily change the knowledge base, based on what was being frequently asked and this was a very easy, simple process\!
> 
> **Cons**: Hardly any cons- this tool saved us so much time and overall it was so useful. It might be good to have conversations flagged where the 'contact us' form was triggered as many users just wrote 'as above' or 'I've already typed it' as their message, but wasn't emailed through so we had to manually search through the conversations or just contact them to ask what their query was.
> 
> This was SUCH a useful asset, we had hundreds and hundreds of questions and conversations asked via FAQbot throughout Pink Ribbon Breakfast season which otherwise would've been asked directly to the team, so we saved so much time and could get straight back to anyone who triggered the contact us form. The interface was super intuitive and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] was very responsive and helpful. A++
