Help desk and live chat solution for customer service

About LiveHelpNow

LiveHelpNow is a live chat, help desk and customer support solution that offers all the typical features of a help desk app, plus more. The live chat features of the application give users insight into customer behavior and intent, with real-time visitor monitoring, individual customer information feeds and social media insights.

This data can be used to tailor the kind of chat offered to customers and to display promotional ads. Agents can transfer files as they chat and tag chats for later review. Users can generate chat transcripts for customers and chat history for agents. Chat history and reports, customizable surveys and performance analytics further help to better understand customers.

Aside from live chat and customer engagement, LiveHelpNow also helps streamline email and ticket management with the ability to convert emails and Twitter mentions to tickets, ticket log filtering and search, ticket status updates, canned responses, ticket transcripts and more.

Businesses can further improve their customer service and free up agent time by publishing an SEO-friendly, fully searchable knowledge base, and can also create private articles for internal use and training documentation for best practices.

The call management features of LiveHelpNow allow businesses to offer 24/7 contact with customizable call-back forms, notifications, call logs and a digital voice mail service. Agents can look up a customer's entire call history and use filters to find specific information.

    Pros

    How easy it is to use, the info it give us about the customer, and how the chat boxes are easy for the customer to read and use

    Cons

    Wished they made the software for Imac computer systems. I hate to have a extra chrome tab open and accidentally close it when working on my website and i close the chat out. Needs to have a Imac software like it is available for the Windows OS

    Basic chat client, affordable price, but a lot to be desired

    Reviewed on 03/05/2019

    Pros

    Very affordable solution if you are just looking for the basics in a chat client.

    Cons

    Platform seems out of date both in regards to UI and features offered. Many competitors are starting to offer services with chat bot functionality and great integration with Salesforce.

    Admin Panel/UI is clunky, out-of-date and not intuitive.

    Response from LiveHelpNow

    Very sorry to hear such a low opinion on the LiveHelpNow suite.
    Not sure if you tested the platform fully.
    We would be happy to schedule a full private demo.
    We do have a very sophisticate Chat Bot:
    https://www.livehelpnow.net/live-help-bot
    We also offer state-of-the-art integration with SalesForce and tens of other CRM systems.
    LiveHelpNow has always been an innovator in the help desk space with many features we are holding a patent for such as Whisper technology.
    Here are just some of the features that differentiate LiveHelpNow from other help desk platforms:
    Accept chat over SMS (customers can text for support!)
    Secure forms (transmit highly confidential information such as credit cards, PHI info, order info) right within chat or email!
    Omnichannel. Integrated Chat, SMS, Ticket, Call and Knowledge management (provide customers with all channels of support from one system)!
    Chat Bot, Instant Language translation,Auto tagging, and more.
    Is it possible you missed those?

    More bang for your buck than any other program I researched or used. They truly care about their customers and maintain a "make it personal" attitude.

    Pros

    We switched from a much bigger chat platform after doing research on other options. LHN is so easy to use and customize it's remarkable. Their service is top notch and if you are needing a feature they don't have, they will work to make the solution possible for you in the near future. Reporting features are excellent.

    Cons

    We have tried to do some intricate routing to different departments including different levels within a department. It hasn't been the easiest, but i'll admit, the request was very complex.

    Pros

    It is easy to use and I have not encountered major issues when using the live chat software. I had an issue once and when I asked for support, they immediately got back to me and we trouble shot the issue and we were able to resolve it.

    Cons

    The interface is just so simple and it sometimes monotonous to look at it everyday. I hope you can change skins or the interface of the software.
