Frequently Asked Questions
How can OnSync be so much cheaper than competitors?
We built OnSync from the ground up with efficiency in mind. Our modern architecture, AI-first approach, and direct channel partnerships eliminate middleman costs. We pass these savings to you rather than inflating prices for shareholder profits.
Are there any hidden fees or usage limits?
No hidden fees, ever. Our pricing is transparent and includes unlimited messages, channels, integrations, and team members. The only variable cost is WhatsApp's conversation fees, which are the same regardless of provider.
What happens to our existing data and conversations?
We migrate everything seamlessly. Your conversation history, customer data, templates, and automations transfer completely. There's zero downtime during migration, and we maintain parallel systems until you're confident to fully switch.
How quickly will we see cost savings?
Immediate software savings start from day one. Operational savings from improved efficiency typically manifest within 2-4 weeks. Most customers achieve positive ROI within 30-45 days, with full cost benefits realized by month three.
