"Friendly robot with good amount of plugins"

4/5

What do you like best about Hubot?

Hubot has a very approachable learning curve, and a nice plugin ecosystem. The architecture is easy to understand and we found Hubot to be a very valuable tool in developing prototypes and proof of concepts quickly.

Pre packaged adapters worked out of the box as advertised and abstract away the APIs of the messaging services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hubot?

The hubot plugins and examples contain a lot of coffeescript, a language that I personally dislike, and as late 2018 its adoption is not as widespread as it used to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hubot:

I reccomend hubot to anybody which needs to get a quick start in chatbot implementation. Be aware of coffescript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hubot solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was able to build a proof of concept chatbot integrated with wit.ai which was presented at the codemotion 2017 conference in Milan as a "getting started" talk. I have been able to put together a tutorial and a sample application in my spare time at work, which is not a lot, and without Hubot that would have been impossibile.
