Does Chatsy have a shared inbox like Crisp?
Yes! Chatsy includes a full team inbox for managing escalated conversations. Plus, our AI handles most queries automatically, so your inbox stays manageable.
How much cheaper is Chatsy than Crisp?
Crisp's Pro plan is €25/month per workspace with limited features. Chatsy's Hobby at $35/month includes advanced AI, unlimited agents, and a full knowledge base CMS. For teams needing AI capabilities, Chatsy offers significantly more value per dollar.
Can I use Chatsy and Crisp together?
You could run both temporarily during evaluation, but they serve overlapping functions. Most teams find Chatsy replaces Crisp entirely since it offers live chat, AI chatbot, knowledge base, and ticketing, all the core features Crisp provides plus more advanced AI.
Does Chatsy have Crisp's CRM features?
Chatsy focuses on customer support rather than CRM. We track conversation history and customer context, but for full CRM functionality, we integrate with dedicated tools like HubSpot and Salesforce rather than building a basic CRM into the chat tool.
Is Crisp Chat free?
Crisp offers a free plan that includes live chat for up to two operators with no time limit. Paid plans (Pro from around €25/workspace and Unlimited at higher tiers) unlock chatbot scenarios, integrations, and team features. Chatsy's free tier is comparable for getting started, but it includes AI-powered automatic responses rather than just manual live chat.
What is Crisp chat?
Crisp is a customer messaging platform combining live chat, a shared multi-channel inbox (email, Messenger, Telegram, Twitter), basic chatbot scenarios, and a knowledge base. It's positioned for small-to-mid teams that want one tool to handle multiple support channels. For AI-driven automation rather than scenario-based bots, Chatsy's LLM approach handles natural variations Crisp's scenarios cannot.
