Great monitoring and chat features
I mainly use Comm100 for live chat between users The most valuable features are the ability to monitor users and to have a real-time internal chat with someone while they're chatting with someone on the outside. The system's stability could use an upgrade, it has a tendency to glitch sometimes.…

Chatbot automation has reduced support calls and now improves staff and customer communication
I think FreshChat can be improved by making it more AI-oriented, where it has more robust knowledge of its own rather than just responding to the local FAQ that is imported, in our case.Regarding FreshChat's AI capabilities, I think if it is more local, if it is more direct to implementation, that will be helpful. Regarding FreshChat's AI capabilities, in terms of accuracy and reliability of output, I used our local FAQ, and then I'm able to govern the responses based on what we set it on, so for me, it worked perfectly as we intended it to work. FreshChat is deployed in my organization on-premises.

Pros

"The most valuable features are the ability to monitor users and to have a real-time internal chat with someone while they're chatting with someone on the outside."
"Implementing FreshChat on the app and also on the website has reduced our call log by more than 30% and also the turnaround for the team by more than 70%."
"FreshChat will definitely reduce my implementation part, and I have a ready-to-use chat feature where I can have live chat and the chatbot to give quick support for my application."
"With the introduction of FreshChat, we have seen a reduction in overall time for our work, and our entire workflow has become much more efficient because it is a centralized platform that enables us to serve customers across different channels via FreshChat itself."
"FreshChat's best features include its AI chatbot, which is excellent, and it provides quite good scaling capability and modularity that we can customize for our particular use case."
"The scalability of FreshChat is excellent, making it an enterprise-grade platform that grows seamlessly with rising interaction volumes and expanding support teams, as it is built natively on cloud-first infrastructure to handle traffic spikes from promo launches, flash sales, and service outages without experiencing UI lag, connection drops, or crashes."
"Live chat and messaging are the best features FreshChat offers based on my exploration so far."
"FreshChat has positively impacted my organization by decreasing the amount of emails that the CSM has to get involved in because the AI is able to either answer or triage more effectively."
"FreshChat is an affordable platform that elevates the quality of customer support we provide, simplifies client engagement, and results in long-term benefits such as an increased customer base and growth in profitability."
 

Cons

"The system's stability could use an upgrade, it has a tendency to glitch sometimes."
"FreshChat can be improved in its availability on the internet."
"FreshChat could have a more robust documentation system that would help our developers better integrate the platform."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for FreshChat is that we have Freshdesk which encompasses FreshChat, so the pricing is a little bit high."
"FreshChat can be improved with better customer success workflows, as those are limited right now."
"However, some integration documentation is a bit confusing, which is why I have rated it an eight rather than ten."
"FreshChat's mobile application is not very good and needs some work."
