HappyFox Chat vs. LiveAgent

Whenever a customer raises a request the same is forwarded to a designated executive with a unique ticket number. Customers can raise their problems via the business website or even an email. They are also sent a confirmatory email that allows them to track the statues of their ticket and also reach out to the concerned executives within the company. All this helps in making customer care fair, efficient and most importantly transparent for the benefit of the customers

I think [LiveAgent] is great from a customer service perspective, though I don't know that I would recommend it for B2B purposes. It has so many features that are fantastic as far as creating a great customer experience goes, I just think it is far more geared toward B2C than B2B.

• All the emails convert into tickets and can be assigned to any free agent or team; which help us to respond on customer's query efficiently and in a timely manner.
• One of the best features, which I used while using HappyFox, was transferring the ticket to another team member.
• You can integrate HappyFox with Magento.

• It's a complete OMNI channel. You can configure all communication medium for your customer with LiveAgent i.e. Ticketing, Social Media, Phone, and Chat.
• Low on pricing.
• You can easily setup LiveAgent for your organization. You don't need to be a technical expert to implement this.
• The user-friendly application.

• HappyFox should provide a customization in category statues.

• Occasionally when "resolving" a ticket, the page will not load the full list of remaining tickets. However, the moment you scroll, the tickets appear so it's not too big of a deal, but I'd like to see that cleaned up. It does not always happen.
• When dialing a phone number, the format needs to be specific, i.e. +15125555555. We often receive phone numbers in the more traditional format, i.e. (512) 555-5555. The outgoing call will not work when pasted this way. I think it will get fixed. These little things seem to get sorted out after enough people complain about it.
• The mobile version has a few bugs, but when on the run, it at least allows you to read and respond to email. Examples of bugs include not being able to transfer the ticket to another department (on iOS the drop down menu functions like a text field for some reason so clicking into it selects the text as if you are going to copy and paste it). Also, the ability to add an admin note would be nice on the mobile version.

I am giving this rating as Live Agent is a very good software that is essential to any small or big business that provides customer support services. It gives you the possibility to manage any of your clients issues, answer questions and keep a good relationship with them by providing quick solutions.

The initial setup, onboarding and training is easy. The system provides 2 graphic version of interfaces in black or white default colors. I would appreciate, if there were more. Some of the setup forms are not correctly resized. Overall, I'm always able to find what I am looking for in LiveAgent.

The one time that I contacted the customer support at LiveAgent, they were very quick to help me out and the customer support representative walked me through every thing that I needed to know to set up what I needed. Over all, the support staff at LiveAgent were perfect.

Implementation was quick and when not counting a bug on our website, it took a couple hours. It was mostly done on our end or with the assistance of LiveAgent's live chat support team. We recommend to check out LiveAgent's tutorial videos on their youtube channel or browsing their knowledge base - we've almost always found answers to our queries there.

bold360 worked for our basic purposes but it was pretty bare bones. It didn't give us the option to get sales or to translate from Spanish to English and it made things a bit more difficult. LiveAgent has the features that we needed and it has many of the similar options that we also still use.

• We are able to answer customer queries within SLA
• The manned power has reduced, it was complicated to manage and respond to all customers over an email in timely manner.
• We have limited resources, so we don't need to assign tickets or emails to any individual. As all the tickets are re-directed to relevant executive or team member.

• We are generating more sales by having sales representatives online chatting with customers.
• The customer service team is able to avoid answering the same guest on a number of platforms (ie. when a guest emails in, fills out a "contact form," and chats with a representative in live time in the span of ten minutes) because LiveAgent enables us to have all of our communication in one platform.
