Recenzie

27. októbra 2025
I recently installed Helpmate on my WooCommerce store, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From day one, the setup was smooth and intuitive — even though I’m not a developer, I had the chatbot up and running in no time. At first, I noticed the chatbot struggled with a few specific queries while checking the chat history. But after training it with proper data, the responses became impressively accurate and natural. It genuinely feels like having a smart assistant that understands my customers. If you run a WooCommerce store and deal with lots of repetitive questions, I highly recommend giving Helpmate a try. It’s effective, customizable, and adds real value to your business.
