Overall Satisfaction with LiveAgent
We use LiveAgent across multiple companies we manage. We partner with individuals in each of these organizations. LiveAgent allows us to access all emails (here at the main office) while assigning access to individuals based on the company we work with them on.
- Through the API, we can pull in account information such as billing, membership status, account notes and so much more.
- Receiving and making calls is a newer future of LiveAgent. We have transitioned to making calls through LiveAgent and it is incredible to view phone calls and emails in one thread (not to mention, text messages and admin notes).
- The chat service works well and it generates a lot of great feedback from our customers at the end of the chat session. 90%+ of those chatting with us will leave a comment about their experience and that lets management know how customer support is doing.
- The support / feedback features allow users to submit enhancement requests and vote up which are most important to them. It also allows us to have a dialogue with the user as we review and implement the feature. The conversation can be made publicly available for others when searching our knowledge base (also integrated through LiveAgent).
- Occasionally when "resolving" a ticket, the page will not load the full list of remaining tickets. However, the moment you scroll, the tickets appear so it's not too big of a deal, but I'd like to see that cleaned up. It does not always happen.
- When dialing a phone number, the format needs to be specific, i.e. +15125555555. We often receive phone numbers in the more traditional format, i.e. (512) 555-5555. The outgoing call will not work when pasted this way. I think it will get fixed. These little things seem to get sorted out after enough people complain about it.
- The mobile version has a few bugs, but when on the run, it at least allows you to read and respond to email. Examples of bugs include not being able to transfer the ticket to another department (on iOS the drop down menu functions like a text field for some reason so clicking into it selects the text as if you are going to copy and paste it). Also, the ability to add an admin note would be nice on the mobile version.
- Using LiveAgent saves us time. We are a small business, but can handle many emails and phone calls with great efficiency!
- With customer information at our fingertips in LiveAgent we are customer service superstars to our clients.
