Landbot is a tool to create chatbots on your website, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger. With Landbot, you can create complete conversational experiences, without using any code.
But should you use Landbot to create your chatbots?
Let’s find out!

User Interface
The interface of Landbot is really intuitive. It provides a visual drag and drop interface, in which you connect blocks together. Each blocks represents a chatbot element, such as asking a question to the user or giving a certain answer:
What is also really useful, is that you can add conditions in your flow and send messages based on the answers that are given to a certain question. So for example, when you ask the age of somebody, you can send people who are under 30 years old to message 1 and people who are over 30 years old to message 2.
Just as with every flow builder, there is one drawback: if you get a lot of flows, the number of options become huge and you will probably lose the overall picture. That’s why Landbot introduced Bricks (very useful!). Bricks allows you to break up your flows into multiple smaller flows, so you can keep everything structured:
Another big plus for Landbot is that you can test your chatbot in the interface itself. In the top corner of your screen there is a button with “Preview” and once you click on it a new window is opened in which you can test the chatbot. This preview also has two modes: desktop mode and mobile phone mode.
Just like Chatfuel, Landbot does also provide a button in the right corner for support. Right from their interface, you have access to the knowledge base, with a lot of articles on how to make a good chatbot. Really nice feature when you get stuck.

Chatbot elements
Landbot provides a wide variety of elements to build your own chatbot. There are only two elements they do not provide, so that is pretty good.
Furthermore, conditions are possible with their “Conditional Logic” block, which works like a charm.
- Delays
Use delays between messages in your chatbot
- Images
Can you send images via your chatbot?
- Video
Can you send video via your chatbot?
- Audio
Can you send audio via your chatbot?
- Attachments

- Gallery (Horizontal list)
Show a gallery of cards inside your chatbot. A card consists of an image, title, subtitle and button.
- Vertical list
Show a vertical list of items inside your chatbot
- Emojis
Can you use emojis inside your chatbot?
- Persistent Menu
Can you add a persistent menu to your chatbot?
- Quick Replies
Can you add quick replies to your chatbot where users can click on?
- Buttons
Can you add buttons to your chatbot where users can click on?
- Free text input
Can chatbot users freely type text to your chatbot whenever they want to?
- Location sharing
Can users share their location inside the chatbot?
- Email validation
When a chatbot user gives their email, can the platform validate it's a correct email address?
- Phone number validation
When a chatbot user gives their phone number, can the platform validate it's a correct phone number?
- Date validation
When a chatbot user gives a date, can the platform validate it's a correct date?
Users
Within Landbot, it is really easy to add custom fields to specific users. You can ask questions to users and the answers will be stored in certain custom fields. Unfortunately, it is not possible to add certain tags to users or to create certain user segments.
Also, on the WhatsApp channel, you can create user segments based on multiple custom fields. These user segments are called “Audiences” in Landbot:

Audiences are only available for WhatsApp, and not for Facebook Messenger and the Website channel.
- Custom fields
Store information from your chatbot users inside fields. For example, you can ask for someone's email and store it inside the "email" custom field.
- Tags
Add tags to users in your chatbot flows to organize and categorize contacts.
- User segments
Can you create user segments based on custom fields and tags?
Messages
With Landbot, it is possible to send broadcasts on WhatsApp.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to send Sequences. You can do it by using webhooks, but this is a bit technical.
With Landbot it is also possible to make a chatbot in any language. They do not provide specific multi-language support, but because with Landbot you can switch from chatbot to chatbot, you could make the following structure:
- A general chatbot which asks you for your language
- For example “Do you speak English or French”?
- If you answer with “French” you get referred to the French chatbot
- If you answer with “English” you get referred to the English chatbot
- An English chatbot
- A French chatbot
For every chatbot, you can also determine the default phrases yourself (for example, if someone is typing a wrong e-mail), so that is not a problem as well. The drawback of this approach however is that you need to do it manually, which takes a lot of time and duplication.
- Broadcasts
Send a message to all or a part of your chatbot users at a specific date and time
- Sequences
Send messages on a pre-defined schedule with a certain time interval between those messages
- Conditions
Make checks in your chatbot flow based on if-then logic. For example, if the user has not given their email, ask for their email.
- Multiple languages
Is it possible to create a chatbot in multiple languages?
- Easy to translate
Can you translate text to other languages without using a third-party platform and without creating duplicate flows?
AI & NLP
In Landbot, you can automatically reply when someone types in a certain keyword. Landbot provides two elements for this: The Keyword Jump and Global Keywords. With the Keyword Jump, the chatbot developer decides when the user asks a question and then routes the user to the right message:
The Global Keywords is different. With the Global Keywords element, you can set up keywords that are valid for the entire flow (except only for a specific moment – which is the case with Keyword Jump).
If keyword-matching alone is not enough for you, you can also integrate with Dialogflow. With this integration, you can understand the intent of the user and use Entities in your Landbot chatbot.
- Keywords
Trigger chatbot flow based on certain words or phrases a user says to the chatbot.
- Intents
Trigger a chatbot flow by understanding the intent of the user.
- Entities
Capture specific information from sentences. For example, if a user says "veggie pizza", the chatbot can understand it's not a regular pizza, but a veggie pizza.
- Dialogflow integration
Does the chatbot platform provide a direct integration with Google's AI Platform?
Channels
With Landbot, it is possible to create chatbots on your website, Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp.
And the last platform is really interesting, because WhatsApp is not covered by all chatbot platforms. Furthermore, the Landbot community themselves say that the WhatsApp platform now is one of the main reasons they chose for Landbot.

They also provide integrations for Zapier (which allows you to connect with every software on earth), Make (formerly Integromat), Google Sheets and Webhooks.

Marketing
I think the best part of Landbot is the conversational experience that you can create on your own website. I have never seen a more engaging chatbot experience on a website with any other chatbot builder than with Landbot.
Using their native widget, you can add your chatbot in multiple formats to your website:
And if you choose for the “Livechat” or “Popup” mode, you can also send proactive messages with your chatbot.
With Landbot, you can also create your own landing pages:
Unfortunately, Landbot does not provide any marketing posibilities on Facebook.
On the other hand, you can send Message Templates on WhatsApp with Landbot.

Analytics
Landbot provides pretty basic analytics. It provides a basic dashboard with the number of active and new chats and the number of received and sent messages:
Besides that, you can also see all the user (and their characteristics) that have talked to your chatbot:
But the best part are the Flow analytics. Per chatbot in Landbot, you can see how users went through your chatbot flow and where they are stopping. For example, if your first question is “How old are you?”, this dashboard gives you a nice overview of what the responses of people were. Really nice feature.

This is a really good feature that allows you to easily improve your chatbot flow!

Conclusion

In my opinion, Landbot outperforms most chatbot builders if you want to create a chatbot on your website.
Besides websites, one of the main reasons why people use Landbot is because of their WhatsApp integration.
Hi, just to report that Landbot integration with DialogFlow is up and running. I tested it and it works fine 😉
