Freshchat has been a reliable and user friendly platform for the past 5 plus years for engaging with customers in real time. It has helped us streamline support, reduce response time and improve customer satisfaction. The advanced automation feature and chatbot functionality have also saved our teams a lot of manual effort and increased efficiency. I didn't rate 10 because there is still room for improvement in reporting and deeper integration.

Usability
I give it an 8 due to its usability. Yes, I had a few issues to begin with and needed some assistance from Freshchat agents, but considering this is something that is completely new to me, to set up what feels like a professional chat handling system complete with autobot within a day is really saying something I feel.

The experience we had in past for lets say 4-5 months with the support team and our TAM was really helpful. The changes in the bot flow has helped our bot to ensure we connect with customer easily.

Alternatives Considered
We have used a self-developed solution for the same purpose with full in-house development however the features vs the value that freshchat provided were worth the selection, freshchat achieved overall better performance and received gemerally more praise, some key advantages were related to user experience and performance of the system

Netcore Smartech offers much wide range of products and services instead of just the ones related to Marketing. It offers lead management, their scoring and the sales cycles which the Sales teams can also use in future. Also, it offers a lot more integrations and automations which can sincerely help sales teams define their flow and daily processes.
