    Chose LiveChat
    We had to move away from Intercom as it changed it pricing model and the pricing that it came to us with was out of our budget.

    LiveChat gave us a better product at a lesser price.

    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.

    Mailtrack is great for tracking emails if you do not want to pay for larger more complicated tools that do the same thing. If you already love your system but just want to add some convenient read tracking, that's exactly what this is for. If you have a system that doesn't work well, I would take the time to evaluate alternatives that also include read tracking (Salesforce for example). This also applies if you're trying to use this for large outbound sales emails - there are a lot of applications that have email tracking built in (Outreach.io is a great example) so it may just be worth switching your whole system.

    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.

    • Immediately you will be notified once any user accesses the email. There is no delay. We have crossed checked and it works awesome.
    • The Mailtrack extension is easy to use. Setting up an account and getting started is smooth and fast.
    • Free version includes unlimited email tracking, this is fab.

    Cons
    Text
    • 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.

    • Some of the settings can be confusing at first.
    • Some alerts are on by default and can be annoying at times.
    • Good to know if the email was deleted.
    • It would be great to know how much time recipients spent on each email.

    I would rate Mailtrack's overall usability as a ten out of ten. The reasons for this are actually quite simple. For now, only I have been using Mailtrack. However, looking at the rather easy to use characteristics Mailtrack has to offer, I would not hesitate to recommend it to the rest of my colleagues.

    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.

    I didn't really need to use the customer support but the fact that they proactively make the installation process so easy by providing step by step instructions with videos and everything is kind of pro-active customer support that is needed. Good for them because at the end of the day, it's everyone's dream to use a product that they don't need support for.

    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.

    There's a free tier. Obviously, there are other things to love, like notifications about your email being read, the fact that if an email hasn't been responded to in some time it gets bumped up. The fact that if other people have Mailtrack you will actually get notified who read your email. But the fact that there is a free tier is HUGE.

    • 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.

    • I'm currently using the free version so my investment was time spent downloading the browser extension. I would say it's worth the investment because I can make more value through each email by finding the right time to send replies or know when is the exact time I should follow up.
    • Knowing when an email is read multiple times helps me know the importance of the content in my email.
    • The paid version allows Mailtrack to tell you which recipient read the email if there was more than 1.
