Super clean look and easy to use plug-in, with great customization options. The tech support was SIMPLY AMAZING. I wanted the floating button to trigger a 'Lead' event in FB Pixel, so I started a WhatsApp chat with the developers and asked them about this feature. They were super polite and informed me that they are looking into adding this feature in their future update by end of next month, and they THANKED ME for my suggestion. I asked them if I could implement the Lead event myself in the meantime, and they provided javascript code snippet which I added to my header and it instantly worked! Amazing! Thank you HoliThemes for such an amazing plug-in and even more amazing & prompt tech support!
