Zenvia Conversion Bots vs Zenvia Bots

Although both are Zenvia products and have similar names, they are different. Understand more about the difference between each of them:

Zenvia Conversion Bots is a native Zenvia Conversion chatbot that allows you to automate welcome messages, request contact information, route your customers' responses to the right teams, and create low-complexity conversational flows.

Zenvia Bots is a Zenvia tool that allows you to create communication flows of different complexities, process automation and integration via API or webhook with any system.

Clarifications

The integration has an extra cost and is currently in Beta version.

It is not possible to use Zenvia Conversion Bot and Zenvia Bots simultaneously in the same row. After installing Zenvia Bots, Zenvia Conversion Bot is automatically deactivated.

Using Zenvia Bots does not affect other lines that have Zenvia Conversion Bots active. In other words, on the same account you can have different lines using Zenvia Conversion Bots and Zenvia Bots automations.

The Zenvia Conversion + Zenvia Bots integration allows conversations to reach the human Agents in Zenvia Conversion via a plugin after going through the Zenvia Bots flow. After contact in Zenvia Conversion, conversations can go back into the flow and continue with other automations.

To develop a flow, we recommend that you hire a package of hours from the Professional Services team. This team will be in charge of building the flow, conducting tests and helping with any glitches.

If you are already a client of one of our Zenvia Partners, you can count on our help to develop your flow. Please note that the Support Team can only help with specific issues related to platform failures, not errors due to the construction of the flow.

At the moment, if there are no Agents available in the desired group, the lead is not created in Zenvia Conversion and the conversation is closed.

⚠️ Note: For the time being, the case of Contact Reassignment for Zenvia Bots is not covered.
