Arena.im
It is well suited for situations where a chat solution can be embedded on a page. This instance requires minimal setup and allows you to add chat functionality to your site within minutes. I think it's less suited as an internal messaging tool- there are already other solutions like Slack that have cornered that market.

Help.com
Help.com is well suited for companies with sales and support departments who have the employee size to manage and respond to visitors chatting. I think a less appropriate scenario would be a company that does not have the employee size to manage the inbound chats as it makes it less valuable if you cannot interact quickly.
