Chatwoot versus Feederloop

Chatwoot is a Free Open Source Software and SaaS live chat platform. You can choose to have your live chat hosted by them or opt for self-hosting. The installation process of a self-hosted live chat has been simplified with their one-click install guides for cloud providers like AWS, DigitalOcean, and Heroku or with deployment options like Docker, Linux VM (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS), or the Chatwoot CTL.

Open Source

Chatwoot’s Community Edition is published under the MIT license. You can find SDK implementations, review the code or contribute to the projects in the Chatwoot repository. The Enterprise Edition is available under a proprietary license. You can still audit the source code. However, modification is not allowed.

The Feederloop chat widget provides seamless video, audio, and screen-sharing calls straight from your website.

Feederloop was founded in 2021 with the goal of going beyond traditional text-based chat widgets by providing a complete audio/visual call experience while keeping customers engaged on your website.

Feederloop provides a rich feature set including:

• Audio or video chat.
• In-call or anonymous screen sharing.
• Intelligent call routing to agents and teams.
• Customers can leave voice messages when agents are unavailable.
• Replays allow your team to watch screen share sessions retroactively.
• It can be used as a stand-alone widget or integrated with other live chat software like Intercom, JivoChat, and Twak.to (more app store integrations coming soon).

Feederloop shines in customer support, onboarding, and sales by creating a seamless real-time audio/visual communication channel between companies and their customers.
