    A good chat solution for Umbraco 8?

    Hi friendly community,

    Can anyone recommend a good chat solution that works well - or might perhaps even integrate directly - with Umbraco 8?

    Preferably a customizable solution that does not entail a subscription plan.

    All constructive input is welcomed - thanks in advance! 😊

    Tom

    Hi Tom,

    I recently used the following two options in our projects.

    • Used SOCKET.IO(https://socket.io/docs/v3/index.html) for the live chat. This allows one to one chat,group chat etc.

    • A free and easy tool ,only need very less amount of coding. https://www.tawk.to/

      • You simply add script code to the header of whatever page you want it to appear.
      • In Umbraco you should have access to the HTML source of your website. You should then be able to easily add the script code.

    Regards

    Hi,

    If you're familiar with SignalR from Microsoft, it's a good solution that I've successfully used in an Umbraco project, with persistence of messages in the database.
