The short version

  • Each has a real cost: LivePerson no price is published for any of the three tiers, and the page states no cost metric; UJET the published tier prices exclude nearly every channel, so chat, email, SMS and social cost 10 USD per seat each on top and conversational AI is quoted separately, meaning a realistic omnichannel seat lands well above the advertised 99 USD.
  • They diverge on capability: LivePerson covers Live chat, UJET covers Smartphone-native channels.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

LivePerson

  • No price is published for any of the three tiers, and the page states no cost metric
  • Despite advertising minimal add ons, SMS outbound and WhatsApp carry separate charges plus a 15% handling fee
  • X is supported only with additional fees
  • Every route to a figure is a quote request or an RFP

UJET

  • The published tier prices exclude nearly every channel, so chat, email, SMS and social cost 10 USD per seat each on top and conversational AI is quoted separately, meaning a realistic omnichannel seat lands well above the advertised 99 USD.
  • Workforce management is a 30 USD per seat add-on rather than a platform capability, so a contact centre buying UJET for its full stack pays roughly a third again on top of the Pro rate before any AI.
  • UJET supplies the technology behind Google Cloud Contact Center AI Platform while Google simultaneously expands its own Customer Engagement Suite, a partner-competitor overlap that analysts have publicly warned could cannibalise UJET, and it introduces roadmap risk into a multi-year contract.
  • The smartphone-native premise only pays off if your customers actually contact you from a mobile app you control; organisations whose volume arrives by inbound telephone number from landlines and desktop web get little benefit from the differentiating features.
  • UJET is materially smaller than NICE, Genesys and Five9, so the partner and consultancy ecosystem for complex integrations, custom reporting and specialist routing design is thinner, and niche requirements more often become professional services line items.
  • UJET sold its own professional services business unit to Onix in July 2025, so implementation and services delivery on a new contract may run through a third party rather than the vendor itself, which changes who is accountable when a deployment slips.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

LivePerson: How much does LivePerson cost?

LivePerson does not publish pricing on its website. The platform operates on a quote-based model with three subscription tiers: Bronze (messaging-first workspace), Silver (with automation and AI features), and Gold (advanced analytics and Generative AI). Customers must request quotes from the sales team.

Source
UJET: Is UJET the same product as Google Cloud Contact Center AI Platform?

Effectively yes at the platform layer. Google resells UJET technology under its own brand, which is why Dialogflow integration is native rather than bolted on.

LivePerson: What are LivePerson's pricing tiers?

LivePerson offers Bronze (includes multi-channel workspace and Intent Manager), Silver (adds AI automation and Conversation Assist), and Gold (adds Generative AI and Proactive Messaging). Each tier includes progressively more advanced AI capabilities and support levels.

Source
UJET: What does a realistic omnichannel seat cost?

Add the channel add-ons to the tier price. Pro at 99 USD plus chat, email, SMS and social at 10 USD each is 139 USD per seat per month before any AI or workforce management.

LivePerson: Are there additional fees beyond the base LivePerson subscription?

Yes, Proactive Messaging charges carrier rates plus a 15% handling fee, and additional fees apply for certain communication channels like X (formerly Twitter).

Source
UJET: Does UJET include workforce management?

No. It is a separate add-on at 30 USD per user per month, so many buyers pair UJET with a dedicated WFM tool instead.

UJET: How large a contact centre does it suit?

It is realistic from roughly 50 seats upward, and most commonly deployed in the 100 to 600 seat range rather than at several-thousand-seat scale.
