Biggest opportunity: Swap “chat widget” and “chatbot” for “long” and “live”. “chat widget” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “long” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “chatbot” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “live” sits at #19 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.8%

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 71.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,015 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

9 of the last 12 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

    Простейшая установка и настройка, очень приятный дизайн, все необходимые функции есть, всё работает. Отдельное спасибо за красивые кнопки чата, которые аккуратно встраиваются на страницы (в отличие от огромных несуразных полос).

    I have tried LOTS of live chat software and this one is the BEST one so far, free version is good balance of features, it loads super quick, ui is snappier and friendly, instead of corporate style. Thanks for the great service guys ♥☮

    I have tried Olark, Zendesk, Purechat and several others. [ link redacted, please do not post links in reviews ] I was instantly curious to try out Chatra because of Yaakov’s persuasion. Here is how I found it to be superior: 1) It remembers and records conversations with users, so when they come back you can see their chat history. 2) Customer behaviour insight (paid feature)- You can see what page the customer is on, what they are searching for and when they are on the cart or checkout page. This is something not offered by any other tool. 3) Customer typing – You can see what the customer is typing even before they hit send, this saves a lot of time and gives a lot of insight into common questions/concerns. 4) Saved replies – Save time by using canned responses 5) When unavailable – it allows visitors to leave their email, name and phone number for follow up 6) Robust and reliable – I faced connectivity issues with purechat but do not with this tool. 7) Visitor location – you can see visitors location details, save notes, name and email. Suggestions: 1) I would like to see customizable payment plans starting $3 per month/user 2) Would like to see saved transcripts of all chats and allow searches All in all this is the best tool there is and it’s just getting better and better.
