One thing I found unique about Sendbird is how smooth the real-time chat feels. It does not feel delayed or clunky. Conversations flow naturally, as though you are talking to someone in real time. If I could improve one thing, I would add more built-in analytics around conversations, such as clearer insights on response times, common issues, and agent performance. That would make it much easier to optimize support without relying on external tools. One improvement I see for Sendbird would be more flexibility in customizing the chat interface, especially around how conversations are displayed for agents. Sometimes, when handling multiple chats, having better layout controls or quick filters would make it much easier to stay organized. I also would appreciate more built-in analytics inside the platform itself, such as clearer breakdowns of response times, chat resolution rates, and common customer issues. Right now, you often need external tools to get that level of insights. Overall, it works very well, but those improvements would make the day-to-day support work much smoother and much more efficient.
Sendbird can be improved by looking into the app ID and improvements on a daily basis. I would add that they could incorporate more features such as enabling video integration so that we can provide video on the chatbot itself. Those additions could improve functionality and also integrating the ChatGPT model or cloud model would be beneficial.

The documentation for integrating with the Flutter framework is lacking detailed information. Initially, I struggled to connect users and manage tokens for active and offline sessions, which caused frustration. Stability issues sometimes occur when listing group channels. Chat messages occasionally do not appear in the correct order.
At times, there are unexpected behaviors where the documentation suggests something different from how the SDK actually behaves, requiring us to create workarounds.

The most significant issue with Sendbird is the support. The support team did not assist adequately with crashes in the Sendbird segment and release. Moreover, their pricing is very high compared to competitors, which is a concern for us.
When I implemented this SDK, I never noticed the audio and video call in the SDK at that time since it was not there. Now, I have to check the documentation first as I don't have the latest update about the Sendbird. However, I thought that there should be the audio and the video call functionality as well.
A major issue was the requirement delay when initiating the connection to sendbird sdk. There were also challenges with URL thumbnail generation and showing read messages, although they mentioned fixes in the newer version. The transition from version three to four required significant code refactoring.
