CometChat Review
LIVE CHAT SOFTWARECometChat is evaluated here as customer service software — CometChat is an in-app chat, voice, and video SDK/API platform with prebuilt UI kits for React, Flutter, iOS, Android, and web. Build is free for up to 100 monthly active users (MAU) with full feature access for development. Paid Chat & Messaging tiers are MAU-based: Basic from approximately $239/mo billed annually at the 1k MAU tier ($298.75/mo on monthly billing); Advanced from ~$359/mo annual at 1k MAU with AI moderation, smart replies, multi-tenancy, HIPAA/BAA, and translation; Enterprise is custom from ~$999/mo annual at 10k MAU with zero overages and SSO. Overage on Basic/Advanced: $0.10/MAU and $1/concurrent connection above included limits. Not a website live-chat widget like Tidio — embed SDK for marketplaces, telehealth, edtech, and social apps. This review uses SoftwareGlimpse's customer-service methodology (ease of use, support job fit, workflow depth, omnichannel, self-service, integrations, analytics, scalability, value, AI), scoring products inside their job cluster rather than against unrelated peers. It is based on first-party research, not hands-on lab testing.
