Xenioo describes itself as “The Best Omnichannel Chatbot Platform”, but is this true?

In this Xenioo Review, I cover the Xenioo features, pros and cons. And I will also share its pricing and most important: When you should use it.

Let’s get started!

Our Verdict

Our Verdict

Xenioo is great for small and medium businesses looking to create omnichannel chatbots.

By using the platform, you can create a chatbot using the flow builder and publish it on 10+ channels. Likewise, Xenioo offers many chatbot elements, has built-in AI features, and a direct integration with ChatGPT.

While I think Xenioo is great for SMEs, it seems that the platform is more focused on enterprise companies. A drawback is that the pricing is untransparent, so I have no idea how much it costs.

How to use Xenioo

When building your chatbot flows, Xenioo uses a Visual Flow Builder:

xenioo-interface

On the left-hand side, you have all the individual chatbot elements and on the right-hand side you got the settings of each element.

Moreover, you can click on “Preview Your Bot” to test your chatbot:

xenioo-test-chatbot

But that’s not all. Xenioo also has an Execution Diagram. And this is an awesome feature that I haven’t seen before in any other chatbot builder. Using the Execution Diagram, you can analyze what decisions Xenioo made and why a user is somewhere inside your flow:

xenioo-execution-diagram

Using the execution diagram, you can test your chatbot flow really fast and solve problems with your chatbot even faster.

In general, the interface is easy to use and it is also easy to set up your chatbot.

But I must say that it takes some time before you fully understand the interface, especially if you have never built a chatbot before.

Because of the many options that are available within Xenioo you sometimes lose the overview.

Chatbot elements

Xenioo has many chatbot elements. It has over 50 elements you can use to build your chatbot flows.

Also, the chatbot elements are pretty advanced.

Take for example the Button element. One of the annoying things users do when they need to click on a button is replying with text (instead of clicking on the button). And most chatbot platforms can’t handle that.

But Xenioo handles this out of the box. In Trigger Text Expression, you can set your own expression. This will manage text replies when users need to use the button.

xenioo-button

Next to standard elements, such as the button, they have also elements that make your chatbot GDPR compliant:

xenioo-gdpr-compliant

Contacts

In Xenioo, you can see all the conversations with your chatbot in the “Conversations” tab:

xenioo-conversation

On the left-hand side, you see an overview of all the conversations. In the middle, you see the content of the conversation and on the right-hand side, you see information of the contacts.

With Xenioo, you can assign custom fields and tags to users. And based on those custom fields and tags, you can determine user segments (called “Audiences” in Xenioo).

Xenioo AI Features

Xenioo has built-in AI for Intents and Entities.

You can train your Xenioo chatbot to understand the intent of the user and use entities:

xenioo-intent

Then, when you’ve determined the intents and entities, you can train test and train it:

xenioo-test-ai

And if that’s not enough, you can also connect your chatbot with DialogFlow or IBM Watson Assistant and use their AI models in your chatbot.

Likewise, Xenioo offers a direct connection with OpenAI. So you can also connect your chatbot with ChatGTP.

Build an AI agent
You can build an AI agent that replies on its own.
Train the AI on your content
The AI learns from your website, documents or files.
AI rules
Tell the AI what it may and may not do, and which steps to follow. Also called guidance, guardrails or procedures.
Let the AI perform actions
The AI can do things in other tools, like book a meeting or update your CRM.
Connect the AI to MCP servers
The AI agent can use any tool that has an MCP server, without a custom setup per tool.

Live Chat

Xenioo has a built-in live chat, which allows you to hand over the conversation to a live chat agent:

xenioo-conversation

Unfortunately, you cannot set up auto-assignment rules, which can be useful for larger customer support teams.

Hand over to a human
Your team can take over a conversation from the bot or AI, in an inbox inside the platform.
AI copilot
AI helps your team inside the inbox after a handover: it summarises the chat, tells you the customer's mood, and suggests replies.
Auto-assignment rules
Conversations go to the right teammate automatically.
SLAs
Set response-time targets and get alerted when a conversation is about to miss them.
Connects to an external help desk

Xenioo Pricing

The pricing of Xenioo is completely untransparent. On its website, Xenioo presents 3 plans: Growth, Professional & Custom:

Pricing of Xenioo

But each of these plans doesn’t come with a price, so I don’t know how much it costs. And most often when companies don’t present the price, it’s rather a high price than a low price.

That said, you can still use a free trial on each plan. It lets you test if the platform works for you, without paying.

Starting price

Analytics

Xenioo provides a dashboard that shows the number of messages, the number of users and user retention:

xenioo-analytics-dashboard

Moreover, you can analyze the analytics of your chatbot flow right inside the Flow Builder:

xenioo-analytics-visual-builder

In addition, you can analyze the user input that the chatbot didn’t understand in the Parse Logs, so you can easily improve the answers of your chatbots.

Overall, pretty good analytics!

See how people move through each flow and where they drop off.
AI Resolution rate

Templates

Xenioo provides 16 templates that you can use to build your chatbot, including free and premium templates.

Unfortunately, you cannot make templates yourself and share them with others.

Support

Some features are a bit “hidden” in the interface. They have detailed documentation that explains each feature.

Furthermore, they have Youtube tutorials in which they explain how to use their platform.

Also, you have online and email support.

Support quality
How fast and helpful support was when we tested it. 5: a human replies in live chat within an hour, plus good docs. 4: a human replies the same day. 3: email only, reply within 1–2 days. 2: slow, or only an AI bot. 1: no reply.

    Hello –

    Regarding your review of Xenioo – what is the issue you refer to at the end of your review “Not compliant with the latest Facebook policies”? Will Facebook prohibit publishing a Xenioo bot via Messenger?

    1. Joren Wouters

      Great question! I will elaborate on this.

      No, Facebook will not prohibit you to use a Xenioo bot via Messenger. But, this year Facebook introduced new policies (https://chatimize.com/facebook-messenger-policy/) and because of that you can only send messages to your users within 24 hours or you need to pay for it / use the One-Time Notification (https://chatimize.com/one-time-notification/).

      The One-Time Notification is a great way to reengage users outside the 24-hour window. Unfortunately, Xenioo doesn’t have this feature built-in their platform. Therefore, I said they don’t comply with the latest Facebook policies.

      Is this clear?

      1. Gian

        Just an additional note on this: Xenioo supports One-Time Notifications and One-Time Follow-ups since December fully adhering to standard Facebook protocols!

          Thank you, I will add this to my review!
