How to choose a Kaleyra WhatsApp alternative
- Insist on the official Business API. Tools built on unofficial automation risk your number being banned outright, and you will have no recourse.
- Understand the pricing model. Meta charges per conversation and vendors add a markup or a platform fee on top — compare the all-in cost per conversation, not the monthly subscription.
- Check template approval support. Getting message templates approved is the main operational friction here, and good vendors actively help.
