Khoros Care vs. Zoho SalesIQ

Customer profile capabilities are a great way to continue to monitor a single user across all platforms. The Manage view leaves a lot to be desired as the experience is very click-intensive and doesn't allow for bulk actions on items. This can make the process of working from a "zero queue" quite time-consuming. Supervisor view should either not be dropped for this very reason, or Manage should be able to perform bulk actions.

If you are facing issues of agents not being able to respond to queries, which is usually faced with our tools, Zoho SalesIQ is probably the best choice as the default notification is very loud and clear hence makes sure that no chat query is left unattended. The desktop application of Zoho SalesIQ for Windows, Linux, and MAC OS is a superb feature not offered by many other chat applications. The geographical locations of website visitors are sometimes not very accurate hence it is advised not to always rely on it and better reconfirm it from the lead.

• Even though it's all in the Zoho family, it doesn't work seemlessly with CRM or other Zoho products
• Not always the best at identifying similar users across different browsers, devices, etc

Khoros Care has continued to provide exactly what we need, or work with us to get what we need to help our customers. They are timely in their assistance when there are technical issues, and they always keep us in the loop when there is an ongoing issue that impacts us

The ability to auto tag, manually tag, make notes, and "snooze" posts is extremely helpful. The efficiency of the work flow for agents is also a huge plus. It keeps agents moving quickly and prioritizing responses for the cases that need it most.

Khoros Support has always very responsive and helpful when it comes to getting my issue/inquiry addressed. Their ticket portal is great for tracking any open tickets and they can be updated via the portal or by responding to the email thread. Support reps are always extremely knowledgeable and care about getting you taken care of

The team received training (from the same executive team member who has been supporting us) over the web and this was of very high quality.

The implementation was carried out by a previous employee who left the organisation, however, because of the nature of the industry, we're frequently updating new processes. The setup of Khoros Care was quite simple to follow and update previous information that was done before I took over.

It would be too long to list every pro and con. However, Khoros Care is built for asynchronous digital engagement and it shows throughout most of its features. It performs better, the agent workflow is better, and the reporting and analytics are better. On top of that, it requires a lot less people dedicated to administering the tool. This tool is way more agile, to the point where some changes in Khoros Care can be done in a few clicks. Whereas, for other tools, it took us hours if not days of work to do something similar.

Tawk to was nice but it was missing a lot of features that Zoho SalesIQ has. And a massively important advantage that SalesIQ had was that it integrated with other Zoho apps that we already used. The pricing of Zoho SalesIQ was also very attractive, we felt that it offered a great bang for our buck.

Scalability has been easy. As we have grown and more customers have reached out to our digital platform, Khoros Care has been easy to work with and assess our next steps. Additionally, they are regularly integrating new platforms and tools that grow as our digital presence grows and our customers flow into those platforms.

• Less overheads due to automated features in the tool.
• Stopped using external survey tools and used care CSAT surveys, this resulted in cost-cutting.
• Saving time by responding to customers quicker.
• Ability to manage different channels in one platform and unified reporting.

• We interact with about 50 visitors a month and it's great when we can see the full picture, to see and interact based on whether they are a new contact or a long-time customer.
• Capturing new website visitors at the time that they have a question about your product is important.
• Missing chats can be frustrating.
