Compare one decision area at a time.

Performance and security
Evaluate the controls required for the data you handle.

07
Administration and governance
Check the plan that contains the controls you need.
- HappyFox: Team adds custom roles and permissions; Pro adds IP restrictions and password controls; Enterprise PRO adds advanced audit logs.
- Botsify: define who can change agent instructions, approve actions and access the connected tools used by the agent.
08
Pricing and total cost

Can we migrate from Botsify to HappyFox?
Start by inventorying tickets, contacts, knowledge, custom fields and service rules. Export access and supported record types depend on your current platform. Map the data, recreate routing and SLAs, test a representative sample, and agree on the cutover plan. Discuss migration scope with our team before committing to a schedule.
Which platform will be faster to set up?
Rollout time depends on the channels, historical records, integrations, approvals and service policies you need. Evaluate a representative workflow with the people who will administer and use it. Include migration testing and agent training in the schedule.
How should we compare support and security?
Choose the required support channels and response commitments, then review security controls, access permissions, data location and retention in the proposed plan. For regulated information, confirm the product scope and signed contractual terms. Explore HappyFox security for more detail.
