Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review 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.

Read full review Cons Making it easier to find archived chats (having the option for just one's self) Color scheme changes - maybe some darker colors, not as bright/whites A different way of transferring to dept's and not just giving a direct transfer option as the first option. Read full review Overall it's a very simple tool that doesn't offer a lot of complexity or expanded tools 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 Read full review Alternatives Considered 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!
Read full review 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.
Read full review Return on Investment Helps us keep up with our current customers and resolve their issues ASAP Allows for new sales to come through easily. Makes it easier to explain the product and show as we go along. API's allow for a ticket to be created with each chat (into our CRM) and allows us to keep track of the chatters throughout the day and log any information we may have missed. Read full review 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. Read full review ScreenShots
