How to Switch from Crisp to Chatlet (Step-by-Step)

OneTimeSuite Blog · Published 2026-07-21

Switching from Crisp to Chatlet is mostly a matter of following the same three steps every OneTimeSuite app uses — buy once, deploy or install, bring your workflow over.

Step 1: Buy once on Whop

One-time $49 for the packaged version — Windows desktop app plus one-command VPS deploy.

Step 2: Deploy where visitors can reach it

docker compose up -d on a $5 VPS behind your reverse proxy (WebSocket upgrade passed through). Desktop mode is perfect as the always-on agent console.

Step 3: Paste the snippet, start chatting

Copy the embed from Sites, paste it before , and conversations land in your dashboard in real time.

What to expect during the switch

Chatlet covers the same core workflow as Crisp, so most people are productive within the first session — see the full feature list and FAQ on the product page before you commit.

Why make the switch at all

Crisp runs $95/mo (Plus), forever. Chatlet is $49, once. Chatlet pays for itself in under 3 weeks vs Crisp's team plan — then live chat is free for as long as you run a website.
