Companies of all sizes are improving their customer service practices with the use of hybrid AI chatbots. Chatbots are designed to elevate your customer experience without increasing expenses. Let’s explore the two primary types of chatbots and learn how Zoho chatbots combine elements of each. With the help of Zoho and Enable, you’ll have the power to transform your customer service department.
Types of Chatbots
Rule-Based/Guided Chatbots – Rule-based chatbots communicate through predefined rules and ready-made questions. When customers engage with a rule-based chatbot, the conversation is mapped and guided by a decision tree. While rule-based chatbots cannot generate their own responses, they are extremely useful when equipped with extensive answers. Zobot is the rule-based Zoho chatbot.
​​Benefits of Rule-Based Chatbots
- Predefined flow and responses allows total control of all chatbot conversations.
- Ideal for basic requirements with straightforward goals.
- Provides and collects data from your Zoho CRM integrations.
AI Chatbots – Using machine learning to identify the intent of a question, AI chatbots generate answers using available resources. With chatbot integration, your AI-based chatbot can self-learn from the data you provide. After understanding the intent of a question, AI chatbots use natural language processing to answer complex questions. AI chatbots provide friendly interactions while delivering crucial information from your data integration platform.
Benefits of Hybrid Chatbots

- Offers unlimited scope.
- Keeps organization resources updated by automatically recording all questions that go unanswered.

Benefits of AI based Chatbots
