I like the fact that through the FB messenger, you take the conversation on-site and off-site. FB messenger feels more personal as well so it's great to build trust that way. Something I noticed tough is that when I have adblocker enabled, I won't see the message box within the chat widget. Many people have such adblockers enabled and might thus not be able to communicate on-site. Other than that, great initiative and a potential rival for Intercom if further developed.

@fouad_tolaib Thanks a lot for your feedback. Regarding the Message box, it's a bug from Facebook. It started appearing a few days back. We've reported it to them and we're also trying alternative ways to overcome it

@fouad_tolaib It's cool to be able to continue the conversation off-site, but from what I've seen you can't actually take the conversation on-site. You need to open Messenger after the first message. Or did I miss something?

@paulodef its actually supposed to let you chat right on the site. In my case, when I disabled ad locker for the site, I was able to chat there without opening messenger. According to the makers, its a bug on FBs end.

@otymix I see Facebook doing just that. This will put a lot of companies out of business. The worst will be if they don't require website visitors to be logged into their FB account in order start conversations.

@regan @otymix Fingers crossed🤞... Let's hope Facebook doesn't take this up and spin off to a standalone product.
