Likelihood to Recommend LiveAgent is great for companies that want to help customers with their issues. It is also great for getting sales for our company. During our chats, if a customer is interested, we like to ask for the sale. It is too easy for the customers to say no. So it is nice that with LiveAgent, they have an automatic process where the customer can enter their item and address information and it is easy for our agents to get the sale.
Read full review It is well suited for Analytics, Customer Relationship Efficiency Engagement, and best suited to help decrease Infrastructure maintenance costs for Organizations. Learning for new bees is a little difficult to grasp with the features/functionalities. The Software is a little complex from the setup and configuration point of view. Reporting capability can be improved as it is a highly effective CRM.
Read full review Pros Having the ability to transfer tickets or chats has proven useful when we are working with a customer who has a specific type of inquiry - perhaps a sales question or an employment request. We’ve found it helpful to have the ability to transfer the chat to the online agent best equipped to answer the inquiry so we are able to serve our customers to the highest standard and with an immediate response. We find being able to add notes and labels to previous chats and tickets incredibly helpful in data collection and also in our ability to work as a dynamic team. By being able to sort our chats and tickets into an organized system that our company created, we can work cohesively to review old conversations for continuity, opportunities for growth, and with transparency between departments. Read full review SAP Service Cloud pulls together messages from different channels - emails, calls, social sites - into one dashboard. This means we can quickly see and respond to any customer question or concern without jumping between different tools. It streamlines our workload by automatically categorizing and prioritizing customer issues. This ensures that urgent banking matters are addressed immediately and no query is left unanswered. The built-in knowledge base is a lifesaver. When a customer has a common question or issue, we can quickly reference or direct them to pre-existing solutions, speeding up the resolution process.

You need to get a third party number which is way much costly. Also, if you get a third party number to divert your calls from a local carrier to LA, then the callers have to wait more than the usual time in order to get them connected with the Customer Support Team. WhatsApp Integration also unavailable. Read full review Integrating SAP Service Cloud with non-SAP systems can be challenging, i faced some hurdles when my IT team took 3 months to integrate the billing data from some other vendor and the system would run slow if you try to pull billing data Slow loading of the pages as compared to other consumer tech softwares we use Implementation costs and complexity of implementation makes it an option only for large enterprises with huge IT teams (and it can take a few months to implement) Read full review Likelihood to Renew I am giving this rating as Live Agent is a very good software that is essential to any small or big business that provides customer support services. It gives you the possibility to manage any of your clients issues, answer questions and keep a good relationship with them by providing quick solutions.

Read full review Usability The initial setup, onboarding and training is easy. The system provides 2 graphic version of interfaces in black or white default colors. I would appreciate, if there were more. Some of the setup forms are not correctly resized. Overall, I'm always able to find what I am looking for in LiveAgent.
Read full review Support Rating The one time that I contacted the customer support at LiveAgent, they were very quick to help me out and the customer support representative walked me through every thing that I needed to know to set up what I needed. Over all, the support staff at LiveAgent were perfect.
Read full review I have found that sometimes issues reported to the SAP takes more time also they lack system support with respect to the priority . Also we don't see RCA for the issues raised. Also turn around time for the issues is not fixed as the support is global sometimes the issues float here and there.
Read full review Implementation Rating Implementation was quick and when not counting a bug on our website, it took a couple hours. It was mostly done on our end or with the assistance of LiveAgent's live chat support team. We recommend to check out LiveAgent's tutorial videos on their youtube channel or browsing their knowledge base - we've almost always found answers to our queries there.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Before making the decision, we evaluated many tools, but none of them met all of our needs or the costs we could bear for them, until we found LiveAgent. The implementation process was super simple and supported by the LiveAgent support team, who are excellent!
Read full review We went with SAP Service Cloud instead of
Oracle Cloud Platform because it is like a custom-made tool for big companies, seamlessly working with our other systems. It helps us manage complex tasks and customer interactions better, making everything smoother and more efficient. It just fits well with how we do things.
Read full review Return on Investment Less expensive than having multiple individual email accounts. LiveAgent has helped decrease our errors since it's more straightforward than sharing a traditional inbox with multiple team members. Sometimes the emails sent from LiveAgent end up in our customer's spam/junk folder because the auto-generated alpha-numeric ticket looks suspicious. Read full review positive impact: Enhanced Productivity: The platform's automation and knowledge management capabilities can boost agent productivity. Agents can handle more cases in less time, leading to cost savings and potentially higher revenue through increased sales opportunities. negative impact: Complexity: If not properly configured or if it doesn't align with an organization's specific needs, SAP Service Cloud's complexity can hinder user adoption, leading to inefficiencies and potentially negative ROI.
