Allows us to save automated answers to the most popular customer queries
In the past, we used help desk programs which did not do much to increase our sales funnel. All that changed with LiveChat. We are able to create a knowledge base, create tickets, and allow agents to collaborate on creating tickets, thereby improving the correspondence time and the quality of feedback that we provide to customers.

A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface
The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I majorly love the ticket and knowledge base features, which allow us to save automated answers to the most popular customer queries."
"We can attribute most of our high ticket sales to this software."
"It truly does what I need it to do and anything else I would say, I would be making it up."
"Through the capabilities of LiveChat we are able to fully customise each live chat implementation to suit the goals of our clients."
"Customer Service: Top notch! The support team is available all the time and have been able to solve all our questions instantly."
"Since we started to use LC we managed to increase our customer satisfaction level, increase sales and most important thing to speed up our interaction with our customers because it's all in real time."
"The solution is a highly mature product, and because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily create service catalogues for our customers, something that we didn't have previously with the other tool we were using, which was SDM."
"It provides us with a very easy and flexible UI for CA Nimsoft Service Desk 7."
"It's quite a complete entry into the SaaS ITSM market with a reasonable price point."
"The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"The ability to add Additional Information Screens on the fly."
"This is the best product for Large Infrastructure companies/organizations to monitor their infrastructures/servers etc."
"Essential service management solution all in one, like 100- for service request, 200- for change request, 300- for incidents, 400- for problems."
 

Cons

"The service needs to be more popular than it currently is."
"There have been times where Live Chat's servers have had DDOS attacks and have made communication difficult."
"I'd like to be able to create teams and filter the reports by team, in addition to the ability to currently filter by group, date, agent, tag etc."
"Flexibility to customize."
"Actually this product and its limitations reduced the Service Desk effectiveness compared to the product we were using."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
"Few probes need improvement in their function and the way they get deployed for monitoring."
"Importing data with relations is difficult and could be better."
"We have been seeing a little bit of latency here and there, but we haven't been able to identify it."
"The deployment was very difficult to handle. It's an unnecessarily difficult process that requires third-party assistance to do correctly."
"This is not appropriate for a small or even a medium-sized business. Too much overhead for a small company."
