Messagely is a handy customer messaging platform. They offer reasonable pricing plans and special offers for early-stage start-ups. The tests I have performed revealed input errors, UI/UX, and functional bugs, and several poor error handling results. I am glad to be a part of this initiative because it is critical to identify potential disruptions in such tools, for software owners to timely take measures for issue mitigation.
