Why Zoho SalesIQ is one of the best tawk.to alternatives?
Is it really 100% free?
As the saying goes, "If you're not paying for it, then you're the product." tawk.to takes a fee to remove their branding on your website, while not adding any functionalities to your live chat software. So there's a price for everything—you just can't see it.
Huge price for basic add-ons
tawk.to claims to be "100% free live chat software," but for basic features like audio call and screen share, they charge a huge subscription fee. In addition, they offer live agents as an add-on at $1/hour.
tawk.to's basic bot: Limited functionality at a cost
Another reason to look for a tawk.to alternative is that it provides only a basic chatbot. While tawk.to's add-on bot comes at an extra cost of $29 per month, SalesIQ's bot is included at just $7 per month. This substantial cost difference allows you to access cutting-edge bot technology without straining your budget.
Third-party support agents
Third-party agents may not be equipped to look at the right places for answers to customer queries. Search engines don't really come to the agent's rescue in these cases since the queries are product-specific. If a visitor needs assistance on your product, in-depth knowledge is mandatory that may not be possible with third-party agents.

What SalesIQ gives you that tawk.to can't
Over 450,000 businesses already trust Zoho SalesIQ for a reason. See why it's the superior choice.
Autonomous AI agents, not just chatbots
tawk.to's $29/month add-on bot follows rigid scripts. SalesIQ's Zobot is an open bot platform—build codeless flows, connect third-party NLP engines, wire in any API through Plugs, or bring in Zia Agents for autonomous reasoning that resolves queries. tawk.to gives you a scripted bot as a paid add-on. SalesIQ gives you a bot platform with AI built in.
Bring your own AI model
SalesIQ doesn't lock you into a single AI vendor. Connect OpenAI, Google AI, Anthropic, or any custom LLM through native integrations or webhooks. tawk.to has no custom AI integration. No model choice. No vendor flexibility.
No Hidden Costs
While tawk.to's core may be free, key features are locked behind multiple add-ons. SalesIQ offers transparent pricing with built-in value: voice/video, bots, mobile SDKs, and more.
Automate conversations with workflows
tawk.to has no built-in workflow automation. With SalesIQ, you can set up intelligent workflows that route chats, assign bots based on conditions, and execute custom logic.
