Direct answer

Which CRM fits your team?

Frontline is the clear choice for teams that need an extensible customer platform with custom data, agentic app building, Artifacts, Max, and AI agents across channels and operations. Cliengo is better suited to LATAM teams that primarily want a Meta-partner WhatsApp deployment with a shared inbox, packaged chatbots, regional support, and conversation-based plans.

Why teams choose Frontline

Three reasons to consider Frontline as your Cliengo alternative

Cliengo reduces WhatsApp API deployment friction. Frontline goes further by turning customer data, apps, agents, Artifacts, and workflows into one extensible operating system.

Frontline goes beyond conversation, contact, and template objects

Model the complete business with custom entities, relationships, permissions, and processes instead of centering the system on WhatsApp conversations and a visual pipeline.

Frontline makes the developer experience agentic

Build through natural language, CLI, MCP, Claude, Codex, Custom Tools, Custom Apps, and Artifacts rather than relying on packaged chatbots and custom integration projects.

Frontline connects agents to the whole operation

Max and an AI workforce work across CRM data, WhatsApp, email, calls, meetings, live chat, files, APIs, apps, and operational systems.
