As with most articles of this type, it's OR/SYNTH/INDISCRIMINATE and is not appropriate for Wikipedia - if someone wants to compare these products, they should be looking at an industry mag or something, not here. GeneralNotability (talk) 02:50, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I agree with the nom about WP:OR. I get a "somebody's notes" vibe from this rather than an "encyclopedia article" vibe. Also, the maintenance burden and verifiability burden of a page like this is concerning. The languages, pricing, and free trial durations probably change frequently. In contrast, a bulleted list of notable live chat systems would be acceptable (and already exists at Web chat). –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:30, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per everyone else. Reminds me of a less soapboxy version of the life spans of home appliances article which was deleted for similar reasons. Dronebogus (talk) 08:31, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to Web chat#Web chat software as preferred WP:ATD. I agree there is too much detail. ~Kvng (talk) 13:00, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete looks like a WP:OR case-study which contains nothing of encyclopedic value and is based entirely on primary sources. We're not a manual or user guide or something like that. And do not keep the redirect per WP:PANDORA as it would not be a helpful title. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:37, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
