It has become an essential component for engaging prospective buyers, converting inquiries into sales opportunities, and supporting the growth of organizations.

Moreover, SnapEngage has found utility beyond customer support and sales teams.

Unfair Chat Assignment System: Several reviewers have mentioned that they found the random assignment system for chat agents to be unfair. They reported that some agents received more chats than others, which led to an uneven distribution of workload.

SnapEngage has been utilized as a tool to better capture traffic on our website. An unanticipated benefit of the chat messages has been our ability to visually see both our side and the customer side of the conversation. This has allowed us to gain a better understanding of both what is being asked and how we are actually answering all questions. Our customer care team was able to adopt the solution within a few days and has been able to reduce inbound calls through this tool. Customers have been extremely happy with how much more personal of an experience it is when they go to our website.
  • The product is quick to deploy and provides benefits right out the gate
  • The reporting inside of the system on what is happening contains all details required by our customer care manager
  • Their customer care/support staff is extremely helpful and easy to reach.
  • The price point is solid, and the product gives you everything that you would expect
  • The integration's between salesforce and email have been great.
  • I am not sure if it is our users, or the system, but I would like to have the manager notified if the day had less users logged in than a typical day.
  • Slightly better notification to the user of when they are logged in/out. Sometimes people step away and forget to log out. Maybe some improvements in this area would be helpful.
  • Overall I am very satisfied.
Anyone with a website that people visit would be a solid candidate for SnapeEngage. I did not compare too many chat systems.
  • Able to capture more traffic on website
  • Easy to see chats between users and customer so you can correct internal issues.
  • May help you organize website to contain details people are most often looking for.
  • Reduction in phone calls.
I have not utilized any other products in this space.
We will renew because of the ROI that this continually creates. This product gets us closer to our customer and that is something that we do not want to move away from.
Change management was minimal

We currently use SnapEngage as our chat widget that pops up for both our sales and customer support team members. It is not used throughout the whole organization, but rather for the two biggest departments: Sales and Customer Support. Our sales widget pops up to anyone who visits our main site, and the sales widget is used when a current user clicks on our "chat" button on our support page and continues to use it as they receive support from our team.
  • SnapEngage has a very easy and simple UI that is usable across all demographics. In addition to being easy and user friendly, the options given for design and layout are great and simple to implement.
  • SnapEngage has a great support team that is there when you need them. On occasion we have issues that arise, such as code not matching up or chats not being received/missed. I have personally dealt with their support team and they are fast, friendly and professional. They do what needs to be done to get you back up and running and it is greatly appreciated!
  • SnapEngage provides options that fit the users needs. There are a bunch of different things you can choose from when setting up the widgets such as design, timing, users and whether or not you'd like it to show if the agent is typing or not. Such customization makes it great to use.
  • The only con that comes to mind is not being able to set up the chat widget to show that the agent is typing when integrated with another product. The agent must be logged into the native SnapEngage app for it to show. Not a huge deal though!
I would say an 8. I am unsure of pricing as I do not handle that so that could come to play for another potential user. I would say the ease of use for both employees using SnapEngage and their customers being exposed to it, in addition to customization and great support all factor in to me recommending SnapEngage to a colleague.
  • We've had nothing but a positive impact on our business objectives... mostly in the area of customer support. We offer 24/7 service to our clients and having the chat widget is a must for us to carry on such a service. In fact, clients sign up with us just for the fact we offer 24/7 service and that is due in part to SnapEngage.
I actually didn't demo any other products when deciding to go with SnapEngage.
I give SnapEngage a 9 due to how successful our company has been while using it. Unless prices were raised by an insane amount, I don't see us using a competing service.

SnapEngage is primarily used by our customer service team to provide chat support to our customers and panel of internal testers. It is our way of providing world class support in real-time, if an issue is pressing or frustrating enough that a client does not want to wait for an email reply.
  • It is relatively easy to set up and implement within a department.
  • Snap Engage's own chat support is easy to access, and their support team is always quick to address any issues we may have with our business account.
  • Relatively easy to add to your site's code so you can be up and running and serving your customers quickly.
  • Snap Engage's reporting capability is lacking in a number of areas. For example, you can't view the total number of chats received across all widgets you have set up. You can only view data per individual widget. This makes calculating team metrics very time consuming. They are aware this is a shortcoming, but not sure when they plan on improving that.
  • They could do more to warn customers when there is a problem with their service or back-end admin tools. I've come across widget metrics not displaying properly a number of times and it would be nice if they could add some sort of message to our account letting us know they're aware of the problem and working on it.
I would say SnapEngage is well suited to smaller companies. It does live chat very successfully, but larger companies might want a chat service that is more robust or full featured, and has better metrics capabilities on the admin side. Also, if your company takes a long time to push through requests to add code to your site, this might not be the tool for you.
  • Better customer service for sure - our clients LOVE that they can connect to a chat agent within seconds to have their questions answered and/or problems addressed.
  • Faster lead conversion - our clients tend to chat with us first to learn what our service does, which makes it very easy to encourage them to place an order.
Snap Engage is easy to use and implement and makes our clients very happy. It's not lacking any features that we desperately need, so I can't see a reason why we would switch.

SnapEngage was implemented for the SDR team at my last company. The chat box was placed on our product and pricing pages so that prospective buyers would engage with our sales people. The goal was to get them on the phone rather than just provide "more information". The only challenge we faced was occasional technical requests and end user support. It was a key source of opportunities for my team.
  • Easy to use interface on our website
  • Automated chat logs were sent to both the SDRs and Management
  • The ability to send chats to SDRs that had been available the longest was a great way to incentivize SDR availability
  • Even distribution of inbound chats for Reps was a challenge
  • The SFDC integration could have been a bit tighter. We turned it off as it was creating dupes with little data, though that may have been something we need to fix on our side
We used it for our SDR team. Once implemented it was easy to use, straightforward and provided a significant source for pipeline.
  • It helped get our reps on the phone with prospects quicker
  • It documented the dialogue between prospects and reps
  • None
We only used SnapEngage. I never saw enough of a problem to evaluate or switch over to other solutions.
At my current company we're evaluating chat solutions. I'm going to recommend SnapEngage as the solution for us.
