Trengo alternative

The best Italian alternative to Trengo

Multichannel AI, WhatsApp campaigns and a team inbox — with no markups on message costs. Assisted migration and real support.

At a glance

Trengo is a customer engagement platform and official WhatsApp partner, strong on shared inbox, built-in telephony and AI automations for medium-to-large support teams. Pricing starts at €299/month (Boost, annual billing; €349 on monthly) with 10 users and 6,000 conversations per year: extras cost €15–18 per 100, every AI-handled conversation carries a €0.25–0.30 surcharge, and Broadcasting is a paid add-on on every plan. It's a model built for support, where WhatsApp marketing is paid separately. Data verified in June 2026 on the public pages.

When it makes sense to switch to SendApp

  • Fifteen times less to get started. €19/month against €299/month for annual Boost (€349 on monthly). For an SMB that wants to run WhatsApp campaigns, the difference is a year of SendApp paid for with less than one month of Trengo.
  • Campaigns included, not an add-on. On SendApp, bulk WhatsApp campaigns are part of the €19/month plan. On Trengo, Broadcasting is a paid add-on on every plan, Enterprise included.
  • AI included, with no meter running. SendApp Agent's AI answers on WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram and email, trained on your content, with no per-conversation surcharges. On Trengo every AI conversation costs an extra €0.25–0.30.
  • Start from the number you already use. With SendApp Cloud you connect your WhatsApp number via QR and start right away, no Meta verification; with Official you move to the API whenever you want. Trengo works on the official API only.

When to stay with Trengo

  • If you run a contact center with built-in telephony, AI on calls too and dozens of operators, Trengo (the Pro plan in particular) is built exactly for that.
  • If your support flows already live in their AI Journeys and your volumes justify €299+ a month, staying put is reasonable.
