WhosOn versus Slaask

WhosOn, by Parker Sofware, originally one of the first website visitor analytics tools, has been a major player in the live chat business since 2003.

WhosOn defines itself as a specialist for niche projects, while still offering a robust out of the box chat service. They have the possibility for cloud-based, on-premise, or hybrid deployment.

All their plans include a multitude of features and integration options. They also offer paid options like an AI chatbot, remote desktop control, and real-time, two-way translation in 100 languages.

Their most simple plan starts at $33 per month for one agent. A 30 days free trial is available.

Customers of WhosOn include First International Bank & Trust, Harvard University, and Thomas Cook.

Slaask is THE customer service app for all Slack users.

Slaask is hyperspecialized and 100% Slack-based. It allows you and your company to unify all of your internal and external communication: interact with your leads and customers wherever they are (your site, Facebook page, Twitter page, iOS app, Android app, your mailbox, etc.) from a single point in space: Slack!

By allowing you to have your internal and external communication in the same place, tab-toggling is a thing of the past, no more time is wasted switching between different tools as everything happens in your Slack workspace. The best part? Completely transparent on the customer side.

We wrote an article that includes Slaask as one of the 6 best Slack Chat Providers in 2022.

Slaask’s features allow you to take care of all your customers’ needs: from our Marketplace to our Meetings feature, and not forgetting our powerful Conversation Flows feature which allows you to create specific paths for your customers to follow based on their needs. These flows can be either 100% automatic or a mix of automatic communication and human input, allowing you to filter incoming conversations and focus on the ones most important to your business.

Notable customers of Slaask include Cumul.io, Windoo, and Sky Rocket Development.
