    We needed a mechanism in place to make contact with visitors to our website easier. What we discovered is that it's an excellent tool for creating reports and dashboards that show how soon issues are handled. Our website can now be updated in real-time, and all of our internal teams are really excited to use this fantastic technology. I really recommend [LiveChat] to many friends and past colleagues.

    It's particularly well-suited for e-commerce businesses looking to send targeted product recommendations based on browsing history and past purchases. However, it may be less appropriate for organizations requiring extensive design customization or those with simple, low-volume email needs. The software is HIPAA compliant and has a SOC 2 certification, which are both huge factors considering we work with sensitive customer data that as a company have to be compliant to do everything within the necessary regulations of data protection.

    Pros
    Text
    • The most important factor of Livechat is their own chat support, I had many requirement from the Sales Head, Support Head to implement features that I was unsure if the product could do. However, as I did the implementation one by one I constantly used the chat support which helped me step by step all the way.
    • The UX of the product is pretty simple and intuitive to use. There are quite a few features that we could easily plug and play. We tried going to the market to find a solution that could help us but they did not have as many out of the box features and simple to use
    • Their integration between LiveChat and Chatbot is pretty seamless and since both of them are from the same company, it's works pretty well.

    Cons

    • It has a limited amount of agents, so when you have many customer care employees during one shift it is hard to manage the quantity of active agents.
    • When system is overloaded and many customers are waiting in a queue it starts to works slowly (sometimes the program even lags) and you need to refresh the system to write a message.
    • Occasionally when you open a new tab, you might lose your current conversation.

    In fact, we started seeing ROI on the MailCampaigns app in the first three months of using it. The time needed to setup and learn quickly paid off later when we started seeing better campaign performance and more revenue for our email marketing campaigns.

    The only issues I have had with LiveChat are the technical glitches within the program. These are not common as in everyday occurrences but when the glitches do happen they tend to have very negative repercussions. This is due to chats with customers being dropped, this may be an internal server issue though and may not happen for everyone.

    Overall very similar in design, but LiveChat had a better interface, better reporting and analytic tools, better mobile support, and just an easier overall feel. The two products are very much alike in the vast majority of ways, but I ended up preferring this product overall. Price points were similar as well, as well as the allowed number of users.

    Prior to MailCampaigns, I used Mailchimp and Constant Contact. While both are solid options, MailCampaigns offers superior segmentation capabilities. Unlike Mailchimp, which limits the number of segmentation conditions, MailCampaigns allows for unlimited layered segmentation

    • We have a small team so the overall impact is that it is easy for one or two employees to handle a large number of tickets without hiring more people. Plus, you can use this software remotely, save a ton on traveling to and from and office.
