LiveChat Software

Easy to set up live chat for your website

Pros

This is the best live chat we have used so far.

It’s quick to set up, is relatively well priced, is easy to customize and brand, works incredibly well and is compatible in all browsers and operating systems.

As an administrator, the set up was a charm and it’s an easy tool to maintain and keep online. We rarely see downtime and out customer service agents really like using it

You get mobile support, SSL inscription, lchat history/logs and great tracking and analytics tools.

Cons

The pricing is the only thing that should concern people. I believe there are cheaper alternatives but in my opinion the easy of use and feature set make this the best pick.

Good value but lacks some key functionality and integration

Livechat gives us the ability to engage more directly with visitors to our site. It has certain functional limitation which my team find frustrating, however for the price that we pay, it is still good value.

Pros

Livechat has provided a really useful platform for us to get started with livechat provision on our site.

The chat interface itself is easy for agents to use. It is also inexpensive compared with other similar platforms.

Cons

There are some important features missing or lacking. Spell check within the livechat itself is crucial for agents to ensure we are always putting our 'best foot forward', while trying to respond quickly to visitors. The automated greetings are great but lack the ability to set logic within the conditions, meaning I don't have quite the level of control I would like over the greetings.
The CRM integration has also been difficult to implement, and hasn't worked well for all our agents. Which has caused some issues with manual data entry and some lost data. This integration is crucial to our workflow.
The customer service has, overtime, become much more automated and it has therefore taken me longer and been more frustrating to get solutions to issue that I have come up against. While the platform itself has improved in functionality through the time i've been using it, I find the customer support has become less helpful and personal.

Functional tool for support and customer service

Pros

We use LiveChat online chat for quick service and support of the company's customers. The tool allows you to control the chats of other managers. There is a function to view the history of correspondence with the user. You can transfer your own orders to other managers.

Cons

The LiveChat client support tool lacks the function to order a callback, and I would also add the ability to send messages when the manager is offline.

LiveChat is an Easy to Use Communication Tool that Connects us with Our Customers

My experience with LiveChat is honestly good because it is an essential software that is not difficult to use at all. We like using it because it is affordable.

I like using LiveChat because it has great features that makes it easy to communicate with our clients and potentials. It saves conversations. Therefore, if the customer experience an internet hiccup, he or she will come back without having to start all over again. This makes it a convenient software.

Cons

I have no major problems with LiveChat because it has been a convinienet tool that connects us with all our clients online. We are able to address our customers issues on time.

LiveChat saves time and makes connecting the right people efficient

Pros

When we implemented LiveChat into our system a few years ago it saved us time and energy into figuring out who needed help with what and getting them to the right people.

Cons

Not many cons except that we received some feedback that the connection was poor sometimes and that the automated help feature needed some tweaking.

EASY

Just fine and better than waiting on hold on a telephone

Pros

easy and you can use it without thinking about it

Cons

sometimes it is better communication to talk to someone

Great features and very easy to use

Pros

I am user of LiveChat for 3-4 years and i love this chat tool over all others. It has great features, very intuitive and user friendly interface, and above all great pricing structure.

Cons

It needs to have direct integration with Pardot

Great piece of software to aid your customers

Generally it has been a pleasant experience. Customer services were quick to respond and we have not had any issues at all.

Pros

The interface is very intuitive and easy to use. There are lot's of features to help engage with customers on your website. The app is very stable and also works perfectly with our CMS which is Wordpress.

Cons

I would have liked more options to customize the chat window in the settings. I did this through CSS so it wasn't a problem but a drag and drop interface would be awesome, for less savvy users.

The best chat agent, hands-down!

Pros

We've tried a handful of live chat plug-ins and have finally found a home. Dealing with the customer service of others was painful and we wouldn't receive answers for 24 hrs. With LiveChat, You can expect next to immediate support and solutions from the first request!

Cons

There's nothing I like least about it. I just wish I found it sooner!

The BEST Live Chat Option

Pros

By far my favorite Live Chat option when I need to talk to anyone in Customer Service. Fast response, never crashes, easily save transcripts of conversations.

Cons

That not all companies use this Live Chat software.

Great way to get help without all the red tape and waiting

Pros

I love this product. So many companies use it.

Cons

I feel like the people on the other end of the chat should have more abilities to solve problems. That's not really the programs fault, but the companies that utilize it

This tool can make connects in business easier.

Pros

LiveChat is great tool for busines when you have to solve many problems of your clients. Addictionaly it's very easy in use.

Cons

I think LiveChat can be expensive for small business when you use this tool very rarely. But in big busines it isn't big cons.

Good Enough

Pros

It works. It's stable and dependable.

Cons

It's just good enough. There is nothing flashy or cutting edge. It's just a good product that works. Doesn't push the envelope.

Very easy to use and discrete

It has been a time saver and very convenient rather than sitting on hold.

Pros

Love that with a quick click of a button I can reach someone to troubleshoot an issue or just to ask a question and not have to be on hold forever. In some cases I have found they can email your conversation as well.

Cons

Nothing, I have had a great experience every time.

It does what it says it does - LiveChat... and then some more.

Ease of use - we were up and running on multiple platforms within minutes.
Loads of features - from basic chat to a reporting dashboard, it's feature rich.
Uptime - So far reliability has been in the at least if not better than 98% uptime.

LiveChat Is a Great Solution for a New Business but not larger Businesses

Overall, this is a fantastic tool for a new business. It's easy to use, simple to set up and easy to administer. However, it doesn't have enough features and integrations to help with a rapidly growing business.

Pros

- Easy to use
- Has great feature to show what the customer is typing.
- Easy to configure and set up.
- Adding users is simple.
- Has an API and integrations

Cons

- Doesn't provide Multibrand support/customization.
- API pulls limit the amount you can pull
- Zendesk integration requires manual creation of tickets. Can not create new tickets for each automatically.
- Support team is hit or miss with its assistance.

Best Virtual Assistant for your Site!

Pros

The Live Chat virtual assistant is an invaluable tool for those looking for an instant, anytime and anywhere “connection” between site owner and the customers.

Cons

Previously the iOS app was not updated to iPhone X screen resolution but this has been fixed in the latest update. So no complains, really!
