Lumissence review for QuickCEP: Live Chat&AI Chatbot
Oct. 31, 2024
The app functions as advertised and the chat bubble integrates well with different locales. However, the performance impact is significant. After implementing the app, our CWV and Lighthouse scores dropped from the 90s to the 60s, which is a major concern for our site's performance and UX. While the app works, the performance hit makes it impractical for us to continue using it. Improvements in this area would make it much more viable. EDIT 1: Despite assurances from Clio that "If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out. Our technical team would be happy to communicate with you directly," my request to connect with the tech team was never fulfilled. Unfortunately this promise seems to have been a bluff, as my emails are now going unanswered. For anyone reading this review: you don't have to take my word for the performance drop. Simply open Chrome in incognito mode (to avoid interference from other extensions), go to Dev Tools, and run a Lighthouse mobile test. Then install the QuickCEP app and repeat the steps. See the performance drop. If you don't care about Google's important ranking factors like page speed, or users potentially closing the browser due to long loading times, then feel free to install this app. I will update my review if I receive help or a solution from the tech team, who are currently unresponsive.
