Gist is a newer platform but the concept is not new. While not as polished as Intercom, Crisp, or Drift, Gist is also not nearly as expensive as all those other platforms.
When using Gist, there are many services that you no longer need to pay for, which easily justifies the cost. You no longer need an email marketing service, a live chat service, a scheduling service, and opt-in box service, facebook messenger bot service, or a helpdesk service. They are all consolidated into 1 affordable platform.
For me, it just makes sense to have 1 communication tool for all communication, live chat, email broadcasts, email marketing automation, etc.

Adam have you changed your opinions on Gist? I’m considering mailerlite because of poor delivery.
Do you think it’s way better?
I am still using Gist. MailerLite is a great platform too if you just need emailing. The cost with Gist is better.
Adam, thanks for the review, we bought the deal after seeing your review, created the account. when they did the migration to the new brand everything got lost, and they are refusing to redeem our codes again because it’s past a year. This absolutely ridiculous
That’s odd. My account migrated fine. Sorry to hear.
Adil, I’ve experienced the same exact thing. STAY AWAY from this company. Horrible customer service. I provided them everything needed to show them that I purchased their product; Activated it; and used it. They replied back with complete nonsense that I didn’t activate my codes even when showing them screenshots of 1) my gmail receipts 2) my gmail activation email 3) Screenshots of my activated and functional account.
STAY AWAY… they are not to be trusted
Do you have thoughts on the rebrand to gist? I notice your site does not use the chatbox feature. Can I assume you are no longer using the service?
If you were looking to pay for mailchimp or use your appsumo paid version of gist (convertfox) to create an email string of autoresponders – which would you choose? Thx . Gardner
I still have ConvertFox, now Gist, on this website. I just don’t have the live chat available across the site. I still run my emails through Mautic.
Hey Adam, given the price, what would you put your money on besides convertfox?
That’s a tough one because services like this just tend to be expensive.
Hello Adam.
Thanks for the full review of this Marketing Tool.
I was really looking for an alternative to Drip, ConvertKit and so on. This looks like a match with a better pricing.
One question: Do you have some kind of deal, discount, coupon about this tool?
Thanks.
Yes that is exactly what ConvertFox is aiming for. I can check with them to see if they have any upcoming deals or if one can be arranged.
let me know also
If they offer a discount via Wpcrafter, I am so much in!! ?
