Live2Support vs. tawk.to

Using LiveChat for the type of company I work for (inside sales - remote) is wonderful. Since we are not seeing our clients face to face, the chat feature on our website is amazing for helping assist others.

The only time it becomes a hassle is when the current client/chatter wants a direct call from the person they are chatting with. We try not to double dip in being logged into both the phone and chat at the same time, but we typically are able to resolve the issue without any pains.

We have been able to increase our "real world" presence on our website, providing users with support and sales guidance when they need it the most – when they have a question. It provides the extension for free. Furthermore, tawk.to provides tracking solutions for your website, allowing you to see how many visitors visited your site and how long they stayed. You can also see which locations follow your webpage. The low-footprint, web-based solution is simple to install and use (in most cases), and it provides insight into the effectiveness of our web pages and sites.

They all serve different purposes but LiveChat is the only platform that's actually just for chatting rather than for communication amongst remote employees. All systems work together though and for that, our teams run smoothly and communication is amazing!

tawk.to offers free basic live chat with no restrictions. I mean, before you go straight to Intercom, try tawk.to first. Sure, other platforms have a better feature set and more customization options, but all of them seem prohibitively expensive for a small business, especially when most aren't even sure if live chat is for them in the first place. tawk.to is a good platform for figuring that out. tawk.to provides me with exactly what I require, with no hassles and plenty of power. There has never been a problem with uptime or service.
