Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"In the future, we may take advantage of LinkLive's video or phone capabilities, but we strictly use text chat now, so I would say that is most valuable to us at the moment.""Our agents find the authenticated session feature to be the most helpful. It can take 30 to 45 seconds to verify someone with verifying questions through digital banking, and we didn't have the capability of verifying questions through digital banking before LinkLive. This feature allowed us to work in partnership with our digital banking provider, who can see that a customer is within an authenticated digital banking session. They do not need to ask verifying questions again to ensure that the person is who they say they are. That is one of the nicest things for us, and especially for our agents.""It's very reliable and we haven't had much experience with any downtime or dropped calls, which, of course, is one of the most important things to us. That's been a big win for us.""Being the president of our organization, I love the secured email because there are a lot of messages that I have to send out that are secure. There have not been any issues with sending the messages or with individuals receiving and viewing them.""There are so many valuable features. One of the things that we really appreciate is the uptime. LinkLive rarely, if ever, goes down or disconnects calls. We appreciate that we don't have to be concerned about dropping calls or losing a customer mid-call as a result of those issues.""LinkLive makes us more progressive in terms of efficiency and productivity. It is just a better customer experience.""One of the primary features we use it for is the Agent Connect screen-sharing feature. I find it invaluable when troubleshooting customer problems with online banking. It saves us time, and time is money.""The presentation of calls within the applications used to access conference call forwarding is straightforward and user-friendly."

"inContact has helped our organization greatly by allowing us to see at a glance which agents are available to receive calls and those who are not, we are able to see why not.""Customer support is terrific. The team is personable, informed, and responsive.""It's easier as a supervisor to do your job more efficiently. You can have multiple things open at once to watch everything, being able to take one look at a page and see everything you need rather then having to flip through multiple programs. This is such a time saver. I get a lot more done in my day due to being able to keep my opened programs down to a minimum.""It is easy to look up and playback calls with this system as it categorizes the different types of calls that come through my call center. I like that inContact is always updating and continues to improve. The quality of its recorded calls is among the best that I have had experience with.""I have found the ease of use of the ACD to be most valuable along with the inView dashboard.""We are able to see the calls in queue and able to see if someone is available or not.""Being able to listen in on a call, which is exceptionally good with training.""It has the ability to edit the HTML, as well as the WYSIWYG."

Cons
"I would like LinkLive to rework the notification system. There's an audible sound, and an alert pops up on the screen. However, in Microsoft Teams, an unviewed chat message appears red on my taskbar. That doesn't happen in LinkLive. My only enhancement request is to improve the notifications.""The initial enrollment of employees can be a little bit challenging. It tends to require the need to reach out to Link-Live support to iron out a bug or two.""Our agents have made some requests for some automated responses and some ways that they could improve the way those get pushed out. Right now, the way that canned responses are set up, they could be set up with as many responses as you want. However, the one thing that they liked from our previous providers is that you could categorize responses. So, if you have a certain area where you might have four or five responses related to one topic, then you could easily just click on the topic and see your responses. That is one area which is not a huge deal, but it gives back those five seconds that you are looking for a response to get more lengthy responses out to a customer. It would be nicer to have that a little bit more available.""I would like to see more video conferencing, some degree of mobile apps, and artificial intelligence. That's the wave of the future with healthcare. Our providers are all on-the-go, so anything that allows them to remain mobile and not have to go to a desk to take a phone call, would be a good addition.""In the browser-based experience, I would love to see a hold button. Presently, you have to drag the hold music into a call and then drag it out. A hold button would really be easier, particularly if you have to put someone on hold multiple times.""In our experience, the areas where there could be improvement are training, staff adoption, and getting the staff comfortable with utilizing the complexities of LinkLive, such as screen sharing.""The notifications for incoming chats could be a little more obvious. Our organization doesn't have a call center, so we don't have someone sitting at the computer waiting for a chat to come in. They're busy with other work.""The onboarding process could be enhanced by providing comprehensive training to all users, not just administrators."

More LinkLive Cons →

"If you have hundreds of books, the initial download is slow.""I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while. For example, if I have a dashboard open that shows how many calls are in queue and how many are currently being handled by agents, sometimes a call that an agent is handling will get stuck on the dashboard after the agent ends the call and the dashboard will show that the call is still a live call. Our tech team has explained this to us as a ghost call. After some time (or maybe many screen refreshes) the call will go away like it has just ended.""inContact should offer a way to send faxes.""MindTouch would greatly benefit by providing a GitHub pull request functionality to foster draft mode and open contribution writing.""One of the biggest missing pieces is a link checker.""It is a hassle, if you are busy and caught up with something, that it will log you out.""I would like to see inView be a built-in feature of CXone rather than a separate platform, but everything else is terrific.""Your docs go on their servers and getting them out is difficult, especially if you want to switch to another authoring format, e.g., Markdown. There are no converters and an automated extraction of the docs from the CMS is not available."

    Overview

    LinkLive is an advanced communication platform designed to elevate the way businesses interact with their customers securely, enhance personalized customer engagement and team collaboration. The platform utilizes a combination of human expertise and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide secure communication solutions, and improving operational efficiencies. It was formerly known as Revation Systems.

    At its core, LinkLive unifies voice, video, chat, and email communications into a single, integrated platform. This consolidation enables businesses to offer a more cohesive and responsive customer service experience. Users can seamlessly switch between communication modes, ensuring that customer interactions are both flexible and efficient.

    LinkLive places a strong emphasis on security and regulatory compliance, making it an ideal choice for sectors such as healthcare, finance, and government, where data protection is paramount. The platform incorporates end-to-end encryption, robust access controls, and audit trails to safeguard sensitive information and comply with industry regulations like HIPAA, GDPR, and more.

    Leveraging AI and machine learning, LinkLive offers advanced personalization capabilities. It can analyze customer data in real-time to provide personalized interactions and recommendations. This level of insight helps businesses tailor their services to individual customer needs, enhancing satisfaction and loyalty.

    Charles Larsen, a Senior Director at Banner Health, shared with us that LinkLive is "very reliable and we haven't had much experience with any downtime or dropped calls, which, of course, is one of the most important things to us. That's been a big win for us."

    Emily Aubele, Quality Assurance Director at United Way of Pennsylvania, shared with us that they chose LinkLive over other vendors, because with LinkLive, "all of the applications are in-house, meaning the chat, the text—everything that you use—is developed and maintained internally by LinkLive. In the other systems, chat, text, and video were all third-party applications."
