  • Does not work

    I always have a 404 error. It seems that the plugin does not work anymore.

  • great

    works well but it would be much better if there is an option to add a typing animation that shows the bot is waiting for a response since it takes some time to connect with IBM

  • Works well

    Simple to set up - more customization would be nice, such as adjustable size, stationary settings.

  • Nice

    This works well and is intuitive. Easy integration with IBM Cloud. A feature suggestion might be allowing users to modify and edit more of the CSS properties of chatbot beyond basic font and icon sizing. Maybe a custom CSS box specifically for the chatbot design? Anyway, great feature.
