BooSend VS ManyChat cover

In 2021 ManyChat, a platform known for building Telegram and Messagenger bots, announced their newes feature Instagram DM Automation. As a old crowd favorite they took over the market by storm as the 1st Meta Verified DM Automation Provider for businesses. But over the years instead of innovating and improving all ManyChat has done is rise their pricing, punishing users for growing their online presence!

Rise of Alternatives

As people were complaining more and more and asking for new features more platforms started coming out, tools like Tidio, OnlySocial, Chatfuel and more.

Result: Most got shut down for not following Meta's policies and the ones that do manage to get and stay approved don't yet seem to have understood the #1 reson users loved ManyChat In the first place! The seamles ease of use that allowed anyone regardless of experience to build DM Automations

BooSend VS ManyChat

ManyChat was the pioneer. It made IG DMs accessible with prebuilt triggers and a visual builder—and that changed the game. But over time it became outdated and profit-focused: contact-based pricing that punishes growth, AI locked behind add-ons, and slow delivery on the features power users kept asking for.

BooSend is the next chapter—built by a business owner, for business owners. We kept everything people loved (speed, simplicity, Meta-approved automations) and rebuilt the rest around outcomes, not upsells.
