What to test before signing

- 3ExceptionSimulate a complaint, an unavailable rate, and a request requiring approval.
- 4OperationsCheck handoff, history, metrics, support, and content maintenance.
Shortlist recommendation
Choose two options that solve the same objective and run the same script. An independent hotel focused on WhatsApp might compare Wenzy and Visito; a group with webchat, reservation CRM, and multiple teams might include HiJiffy and Asksuite. Change the shortlist when the priority workflow changes.
