We needed a mechanism in place to make contact with visitors to our website easier. What we discovered is that it's an excellent tool for creating reports and dashboards that show how soon issues are handled. Our website can now be updated in real-time, and all of our internal teams are really excited to use this fantastic technology. I really recommend [LiveChat] to many friends and past colleagues.
This is being used to make it easier for our sales staff to add leads and follow up with them. Our sales team has found it considerably easier to maintain track of leads generated by this service because of the connectivity with CRM. We wanted to learn more about our customers' habits. This work is made incredibly simple and straightforward to accomplish with SalesIQ. It makes a big difference to chat with and engage with customers at the correct time without being aggressive.
LiveChat has an easy to navigate UI. Most of the tabs you need are on the left and self explanatory.
If the team itself has any issues with the software, there is a small help tab on the bottom right for immediate tech support. Not sure if it is 24/7 but quick response.
There is also a "Reports" tab that makes it easy for the management department to keep track of tickets answered and task to assign.
Price point is a little on the high side, making it difficult for some small businesses to justify.
When monitoring chats from a manager standpoint, there seems to be an inherent delay; it does not appear to be instantaneous.
Very minor, but the chat widget sound options can be annoying, and wish there were more available options in order to allow employees to differentiate their own sessions if their desks are near one another.
The only issues I have had with LiveChat are the technical glitches within the program. These are not common as in everyday occurrences but when the glitches do happen they tend to have very negative repercussions. This is due to chats with customers being dropped, this may be an internal server issue though and may not happen for everyone.
We had to move away from Intercom as it changed it pricing model and the pricing that it came to us with was out of our budget. LiveChat gave us a better product at a lesser price. Intercom did not provide us with chat support for the plan we were on - at times we had to wait 24 hours for a reply to a query on their chat. Livechat literally has chat support at all times. This really helped me with my Implemetation.
The option of the desktop application was a missing feature on both of the previously used tools, including having applications for Windows, Linux, as well as MACOS. Having a separate application for the chat agents from the main CRM application was a key missing feature as it was combined with the complete CRMs tools being used earlier. Website visitors' live and history activity on our website was missing on the tools being used earlier by our Customer Success teams.
As I mentioned before, LiveChat can be used to evaluate the quality of the service provided by your employees.
LiveChat can ease the work done by your Customer Care team. In addition, it is very easy and fast to learn how to work with LiveChat, so you would need less time to train your new customer care specialists.
You can have much better customer care service and your clients will be much more satisfied.
It has significantly reduced the number of phone calls and emails we used to get. Chat is more convenient for our users. It also means we can provide support with fewer agents as a single agent can work on multiple chats (unlike phone support).
Ability to catch and engage with new users that are potential leads has also improved our overall sales program.
Letting admin take over chat seamlessly without a transfer lets us provide a better quality support experience to our more important users.
