Zoho SalesIQ – Live chat, chatbots, and visitor tracking

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 94% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   This plugin is pretty tired. It doesn’t work with the current versions of WP and other plugins you’ll probably be using. I was able to get Zoho IQ working for a few years but it’s now dead after updating the website and it’s not worth having my team create patches to fix it constantly. WP Bakery and the current version of WP are incompatible. Zoho should be more on top of it. Having used many of the Zoho software offerings and plugins over the last 4 years…I’ve found they are trying to do more than they can and don’t do anything really well. I’m switching away from all of the Zoho products and going with best of breed a la carte. I tried their other WP plugin for a contact form I think early on and it also broke WordPress. These are the only 2 plugins that actually broke the functionality of my website. Zoho Bookings is pretty cool but… it only integrates with Zoho Meetings which is terrible and very low quality and plain unusable. They have a lot of good ideas but the reality of it is their products are all half finished, even after 4 years of using it they have updated but nothing like their competitors. And yes I have offered suggestions quite often to their support team but they don’t have the resources to update the software very well or quickly.

   In some days the plugin does not work, and without making any changes to either the website or SalesIQ. For example today it is not running, but it is recurring sometimes it is ok sometimes it is not. Sincerely ManuelArroz.EU

   We use Zoho for our entire business. The capability of this platform is unlike anything else on the market. Sales IQ is a tiny yet powerful part of this with bots, tracking, CRM integration, canned messages and even the ability to see what people are typing before they hit enter. We love Zoho, and look forward to many more happy years with Sales IQ and Zoho.

   Atendeu bem o que buscava. Esse plugin é uma interface simples para adicionar o código (provido pela Zoho, necessário cadastro) para adicionar o balão de chat no site.
