The Chat Widget
WatBox
WatBox

Live chat widget (3KB) that won't slow your site. Zero Lighthouse impact. Works on slow networks. Email notifications. Set up in 30 seconds. Free plan available.

WatBox is a Salesforce-native messaging add-on that lets you manage WhatsApp and SMS conversations directly inside your CRM, so you do not have to juggle between external messaging apps and Salesforce. When a customer messages you on WhatsApp, WatBox routes that conversation into Salesforce, links it to the right Lead, Contact, Account, or Case, and keeps every interaction attached to the customer record. This gives you a single place to see history, update data, and follow up in context.
