How we classify services

Operational dependency warning

Relies heavily on non-European providers

Current public evidence shows 6 non-European infrastructure or email dependencies across 5 providers: Cloudflare, Google, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Mailgun. The reviewed operational path is therefore not entirely European.

Review dependencies ↓

Trengo is a live chat software from the Netherlands. It gives a support team one place to answer customer conversations, with apps for Android, iOS, macOS and Windows so agents can reply from a desktop or a phone.

Being Dutch makes it a European alternative to US customer messaging platforms for companies that want conversations with their customers held by an EU supplier. It suits support and sales teams that handle a steady stream of incoming questions.

Pricing

There is no free plan. Paid plans start at EUR 19 per month, or EUR 15 per month billed annually.
