Hubspot Live chat is not the most feature backed but its core service is solid and gets the job. Other live chat software like Live Chat or Zendesk has more features but most of those features are not needed for the everyday biz user

SupportBee is the "maximal point" of the combination of feature set, price point, ease of use, third party integrations, and client-facing functionality. Every other system we've tried is too expensive, impossible to use, too many features, too high a learning curve for our employees, or too difficult for our clients to interact with.
