The WoowBot alternative for WooCommerce stores that want leads, not just product search
WoowBot, by QuantumCloud, is a WooCommerce chatbot with product search in the free version and, in Pro, add-to-cart, order status and AI answers from several providers. HolaReply takes a different path: answers only from your store’s content, and every question it can’t answer handed to your team. Which is better depends on what your shoppers need.

Where HolaReply is different
1. AI answers from your whole store, free
HolaReply indexes your WooCommerce products (the price as a signed-out shopper sees it, SKU, attributes, stock status, short description) plus delivery, returns and FAQ pages, and answers shopper questions from them on the free plan. In WoowBot, AI answers from a knowledge base are part of Pro.
2. Never a guessed price, discount or allergy answer
HolaReply shows its sources, says when it doesn’t know, and sends locked topics straight to your team. Because it reads prices as a guest, it never quotes a trade price your shop shows only to signed-in customers.
straight from the growers.
Trade packs for kitchens, bakeries and shops. Order by the kilo or by the pallet.

3. Leads your team can work
When HolaReply can’t help, the shopper leaves an email (asked only then, never twice) and your team gets the whole conversation. With Pro, it lands in the Sales Desk and your reply reaches the shopper by chat and email.

Questions people ask
Is WoowBot free?
The free version searches products and emails the admin when there is no match. AI answers, add-to-cart, order status and retargeting are in Pro, from $49 a year for one site.
Can HolaReply add products to the cart?
Not yet. HolaReply answers questions and links to the product (as a product card with picture and price; Pro adds stock); the shopper buys on your normal product page. If you need checkout inside the chat, WoowBot or StoreAgent is a better fit.
Can HolaReply show order status?
No. It answers from your delivery and returns pages and passes order problems to your team.
Which is cheaper?
WoowBot’s paid plans start at $49 a year; HolaReply Pro is from $79, paid once. HolaReply’s free version includes AI answers and lead capture, so many stores won’t need Pro.
Is HolaReply on WordPress.org?
Yes. HolaReply is on WordPress.org: search for HolaReply in Plugins → Add New Plugin, or download the zip and upload it.
