The short version

  • Only ChatGPT has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 8x8 Contact Center listed on G-Cloud 14 directly by 8x8 UK Limited (not a reseller) at £0.68 to £113.40 per user per month for 8x8 Contact Centre; ChatGPT openAI's own pricing page, as captured by the Internet Archive in 2023, listed ChatGPT Plus at $20 per user per month, Team at $25 to $30 per user per month with a minimum of 2 users, and Enterprise available only from 150 users. The live page refuses automated reads, so these are 2023 figures and the tiers have changed since.
  • They diverge on capability: 8x8 Contact Center covers Voice, ChatGPT covers Natural language conversation.
