Kommo vs BizMagnets

Kommo: what it is and who it suits

Kommo is a mature CRM that added WhatsApp as one of many channels alongside email, Telegram, Instagram and more — its strength is a broad sales-pipeline and lead-management feature set with messenger integrations layered on top. Tenashi is built WhatsApp-first: a shared team inbox where WhatsApp is the primary surface, with CRM, pipeline, tickets and catalog designed around the conversation rather than added on.

Kommo is best suited for: sales teams that already use or want a traditional multi-channel CRM and want WhatsApp to be one of several managed channels.

Tenashi advantage over Kommo (1 of 3): WhatsApp is the primary surface, not a secondary channel — the inbox, pipeline and tickets are all designed around WhatsApp conversations, so there's no mismatch between the CRM structure and how your team actually works.

Tenashi advantage over Kommo (2 of 3): Link your existing WhatsApp number in minutes without the API setup that Kommo's WhatsApp integration requires — no waiting on BSP provisioning before your first reply.

Tenashi advantage over Kommo (3 of 3): A built-in product catalog and ticket system are included in the same product, so your team can share products and raise support tickets without leaving the inbox or subscribing to add-ons.

BizMagnets: what it is and who it suits

BizMagnets combines WhatsApp broadcast campaigns, a no-code chatbot builder and a team inbox on the official API, positioning itself as an affordable all-rounder for SMBs in India and Southeast Asia. Tenashi takes a conversation-first approach: linking your existing number in minutes without API approval, then giving your team a shared inbox with a built-in CRM, pipeline, tickets and catalog in one product.

BizMagnets is best suited for: small businesses in India or Southeast Asia looking for an affordable WhatsApp bot and broadcast tool on the official API.

Tenashi advantage over BizMagnets (1 of 3): Start on your existing WhatsApp number without API registration — BizMagnets requires the official Business API, which adds a Meta approval step before you can use the platform.

Tenashi advantage over BizMagnets (2 of 3): A full contact CRM with company history, custom fields and deal records is built in, not bolted on — so every WhatsApp conversation enriches a persistent customer record your whole team can see.

Tenashi advantage over BizMagnets (3 of 3): A visual sales pipeline with deal stages lets your sales team track opportunities from first chat to closed deal inside the same tool as the inbox, with no external CRM subscription needed.
