Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Recent review vibe

Mixed PraiseOnboardingPricingFeature requests

Most reviewers praise the plugin and its support, but the newest one says the setup does nothing and is confusing, and a few want a free tier or more chat notifications.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

13 of the last 20 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.

    it does nothing during config provided by the creator as the creator states it is a common simple setup process just like other plugins but does not mention you have to click on a whole another process to install this and now is drawing a safety concern as to why this all is not mentioned i tried direct website signup and claims it wants my work email and it is totally anal specific email sign up should not matter if its your personal email or work email unless there is other intentions to be brought forth, Moderators i feel this needs to be further investigated do to my findings

    I highly recommend installing this live chat! The free version is great but the paid version offers even more for the success of your online business.

    Il plugin wordpress funziona perfettamente e permette di interfacciare la tua Dashboard Customerly con il sito wordpress. Sarebbero gradite qualche notifica in più come all’avvio della chat senza l’obbligo di tenere aperta la finestra di Costumerly. Il servizio ha un prezzo assolutamente competitivo ma anch’esso potrebbe essere migliorato.

    I’be been using Customerly now for the last couple weeks. I’ve used quite a few different marketing automation and customer engagement platforms, and I have been so impressed with the feature set of Customerly. The product is a little young, but the feature set is quite comprehensive. The developer has been quick with answering questions and making a few fixes. The WordPress plugin does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I like that you only need to do an oAuth authentication and no manual token generation is needed. Really simple and easy to configure. Most of the remaining setup is done within the app, and there are plenty of options with a lot of flexibility.
