Which plan to pickRun the free role-plays with two or three reps first. If they keep using them, Practice covers rehearsal; only pay for Perform if you do not already have Gong or another call recorder.Start on Free or the 7-day trial, which needs no card. Growth is the plan most stores end up on, then add Lyro once you know how many chats it would handle. Check the price calculator on Tidio's pricing page, because the plan, Lyro and Flows are each billed separately.Individuals should take Pro on the yearly plan; it is cheap and ten sessions a week is plenty. Teams wanting their own sales scenarios need Business.
