Livechat creates customer engagement possibilities

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates HelpDesk from other similar products?

Livechat creates a lot of possibilities , when deployed for customer engagement purposes. Although the primary use for Livechat used to be for easy chat based communication with customers on our website, our use of Livechat has now far exceeded this. We use Livechat to engage customers through our social media inbox, and Livechat is even currently a major means through which we have continuously increased our marketing email list.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Livechat can be integrated with important third party software programs to expand its default features and enable users to accomplish more. In our own case as an example, we have integrated Livechat with Snapcall to quickly escalate basic chat based conversations on Livechat into video calls and screen sharing sessions , without the customer even needing to install any software, nor do I or my colleagues need to leave the livechat interface.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Livechat has left me with basically nothing to complain about. There was a time though, where we used to get false customer chat notifications on the mobile app, This has long been resolved from my experience.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For me, I don't think any other software even comes close to the possibilities which Livechat brings.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity

What differentiates HelpDesk from other similar products?

Integration is the area where I think Livechat blows the competition out of the water. At my last count, Livechat integrates with over seven key software programs used at out marketing department. This integration makes it possible to build workflows that help address basic day to day marketing tasks by simply integrating other tools with Livechat. An example of one of such integration is how we successfully integrated Livechat with Slack. Integrating Livechat and Slack together, enables members of my department to respond to customer queries on Livechat directly from Slack or respond to Slack messages from colleagues right from Livechat.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The ability to measure the performances of my department as it regards live communication with customers and interested sales prospects has been very helpful to me. Livechat provides an array of analytical options like agent reports, chat reports and data summaries. All of these makes it straightforward for departmental leaders to measure in real time, how agents are performing.

What do you dislike most about this product?

With the quality and quantity of features available to I and my teammates on the Livechat platform, I am struggling to come up with any criticism of this software program.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For professionals or marketing teams seeking a scalable helpdesk program which can help them stay in touch with their customers round the clock, I will suggest Livechat. In my opinion, it is more than a helpdesk software program.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Unique Features
