Which one, for whom

Pick Brevo (Sendinblue) if

  • You already send campaigns from Brevo and want the same contacts in the inbox.
  • Marketing automation matters as much as support.
  • Five people cost $400 a month less than on Userlike ($75 against $475), before AI.
  • Time to the first reply is an afternoon here and an hour on Userlike.

Pick Userlike if

  • You are in Europe and want a German-hosted messenger with WhatsApp campaigns.
  • Telegram and Instagram must be in the same inbox.
  • You need Telegram in the price, which Brevo (Sendinblue) does not include outright.
  • Time to the first reply is an hour here and an afternoon on Brevo (Sendinblue).

The third option: Sellio

  • Your team is two to ten people on chat, messaging and email. Weigh workspace pricing against $75 a month on Brevo (Sendinblue) against $475 on Userlike for five people; the billing units and included features differ.
  • You want a ceiling on AI spend: Brevo (Sendinblue) meters AI (Aura AI) above the seats, Userlike meters AI (from about $108/mo) above the seats, and Sellio stops at the cap you set.
  • You need native Windows and macOS apps and tickets raised from a chat, which neither Brevo (Sendinblue) nor Userlike includes.

What two, five and ten people pay

Brevo (Sendinblue): $75 a month for five (5 seats × about $15); it does not print a per-seat rate to extend to two or ten. Userlike: $475 a month for five (5 seats × about $95, billed yearly); it does not print a per-seat rate to extend to two or ten. Sellio: Free for two seats; Mini at $45 for five, $30 less than Brevo (Sendinblue) and $430 less than Userlike for five people; Essentials at $95 for ten, the AI credit included.

Where the two agree, and where they split

Brevo (Sendinblue) is a marketing platform with a chat inbox built around email campaigns; Userlike is a customer messaging platform built around the website messenger. Both have a free plan: Brevo (Sendinblue)'s is one seat, one channel, Userlike's is 1 seat, website only. Brevo (Sendinblue) and Userlike both include website chat, WhatsApp and Instagram in the price; only Userlike has Telegram. Neither Brevo (Sendinblue) nor Userlike includes email outright. Brevo (Sendinblue) (Aura AI) and Userlike (from about $108/mo) both meter AI above the seats. Neither Brevo (Sendinblue) nor Userlike has a ticket queue, and neither Brevo (Sendinblue) nor Userlike ships a desktop app. Brevo (Sendinblue) is an afternoon; Userlike is an hour.

What each price leaves out

Brevo (Sendinblue): Aura AI drafts and summaries inside the plans; no per-conversation AI price. Userlike: AI Agent from about $108 a month for 100 conversations; AI Copilot about $21 per seat. Beside Brevo (Sendinblue)'s Aura AI and Userlike's from about $108/mo, Sellio includes an AI credit with each paid plan. Usage consumes that credit; additional credits cost extra, and you can set a spending cap.

How these figures were read

Brevo (Sendinblue) does not print the figures above in a form a fetch can read (Conversations is priced per seat; the marketing plans by email volume. The page could only be read in a local currency, so the seat price is from Brevo's published summaries.), so they are marked unverified here beside Userlike's, and Brevo (Sendinblue)'s pricing page should be checked before you decide.
