What Is Freshchat for PrestaShop?
Freshchat is the customer messaging component of the Freshworks ecosystem — a suite of business software used by over 60,000 companies worldwide. Freshchat provides AI-powered messaging, live chat, chatbot automation, and multi-channel support, all backed by the reliability and enterprise features of the Freshworks platform.
