UK SOFTWARE PROFILE
EngageBay
EngageBay combines sales, marketing and support in one account. Its documented workflow builder supports delayed actions and conditional routes, while the help desk organises cases for the same customer base. An AI chatbot can use selected knowledge sources and offer a live-agent connection. Contact, automation and AI allowances matter more than the headline entry price.
