    LiveHelpNow provides an easy way to provide youtube links, manual links and remote software links to customers in real time. There is no need for the cx to have to go check their email or go outside of LiveHelpNow to see the helpful information. Which is important as we prefer to keep customers engaged on our website!

    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.

    • Being able to see what the contact is typing before they send is great as it allows time to prepare your answer.
    • The whisper function is invaluable for keeping colleagues updated and giving staff training.
    • The 'Ban' function is great for quick action when you have a nuisance contact.

    • What I always dislike about any software is the branding that comes along with it.
    • The live chat module is not super noticeable since it's just in small print at the bottom of the chat module.
    • Small errors can occur, causing the extension in the webpage to disappear.

    I think that it's very user friendly. And even in filling out this survey, I've discovered it has beneficial features that I didn't even know it had! It's a lot of capabilities all rolled into one. We're appreciate that tawk.to is an option for us since we haven't found another third party that fits so well with our needs

    We use HubSpot for most of our sales and marketing and it's highly effective. However, the chat function doesn't allow communication between staff during chats that tawk.to offers.

    • The most notable positive impact that we have experienced were during the pandemic. When the world as we know if shut down LiveHelpNow gave us a much needed way for us to stay in contact with our customers. Our hold times for phone support was at an all time high. Having LiveHelpNow allowed many many customers to receive assistance for minor issues without the frustration of calling in.
