Respoe vs Tidio

Tidio gives chat and a chatbot to small stores, while Respoe brings all of customer service into one inbox

Respoe fits best for

Webshops with 2 to 25 people in customer service who want the order beside the conversation and one fixed price

Tidio fits best for

Small stores that want to start with chat and a chatbot for free

In short

The three differences that matter most in practice

1

A fixed price whatever the volume

Tidio's price grows with conversations. Respoe costs the same however many customers write.

2

A complete helpdesk

Respoe has a help center, rules, reports, order actions and Danish integrations such as GLS, PostNord and e-conomic.

3

Tidio is easy to start with

A free plan, visual chatbot builder and quick setup make Tidio popular with small stores.

Price

What a team of 6 people pays, worked out from public prices

Tidio does not charge per user but per conversation. We assume a team of six handles about 1,000 conversations a month and use Tidio's Growth tier for 1,000 conversations on monthly billing.

Respoe · Team

$299 a month

Team plan: $299 · 10 users included, 6 used: 0 extra

Tidio · Growth

$179 a month

Growth, 1,000 conversations

In the example Tidio is $120 cheaper a month than Respoe, before add-ons and usage.

  • Respoe's prices exclude VAT. An AI reply in Respoe is every draft, reply, summary or translation; it is not the same unit as a “resolution” or “outcome” elsewhere.
  • Lyro, Tidio's AI agent, is an add-on: from $39 a month for 50 AI conversations and $700 for 1,000 (monthly billing).
  • Up to about 1,000 conversations Tidio is cheaper than Respoe Team; 2,000 conversations cost $349 a month. Respoe has no limit on conversations.

    Respoe has integrations with e-conomic and Business Central, so balances and invoices can sit beside the customer (Pro).

  • Shopify, WooCommerce and PrestaShop

    Orders from the webshops Danish stores typically use, found by the customer's email address.

Switching

How to move from Tidio to Respoe, step by step

Most teams can answer customers from Respoe the same day, because the old system can keep running while you test.

  1. Step 1

    Create the workspace

    Try free for 14 days without a card. Invite the team and connect your webshop so orders sit beside conversations.

  2. Step 2

    Forward the support email

    Set your support address to forward to Respoe. Keep Tidio running while you test and move the address completely when you are ready.

  3. Step 3

    Move your help articles

    Import articles from PDF, Word, Markdown or text files. They become drafts you review before they are published and used by the AI.

  4. Step 4

    Swap the chat on your site

    Add Respoe's chat in your colours and recreate the saved replies you use most. Then switch the old chat off.

This comes across to Respoe

  • New messages, as soon as the support email forwards to Respoe
  • Help articles from PDF, Word, Markdown or text files as drafts
  • Customers and orders, fetched from your webshop once it is connected

This stays in the old system

  • Old ticket history, because Respoe has no importer for conversations from Tidio today, so keep access or an export for as long as you need it
  • On the Pro plan we help with setup and migration, so you don't have to do it alone.

Honestly

When you should choose Tidio over Respoe

Respoe is not the right choice for everyone, and these are the situations where we think Tidio fits better.

Choose Respoe if this sounds like you
