Live Chat Software

Customer Engagement & Real-Time Customer Support.

The big day has finally come! We are excited to announce a new product joining the list of our Customer Service Tools – It’s a “Live Chat Software”.

Good things take time!

Slow and steady this is our fourth product release in the last 14 years. It took us 2 years to develop the Live Chat Software and looking at the final product we are immensely happy – the time that we have spent developing it is really worth it.

Key Aspects of Live Chat Software –

  • User-Friendliness – Ease of use has always been our top priority.
  • In-Built into Customer Support tools – All-in-one customer service portal that allows staff agents to solve incidents and do live chat sessions from a single staff portal.
  • Multi-Company Live Chat Management – Offers Multi-company live chat management features similar to our Satellite Help Desk and Service Desk.
  • Device-independent (Browser-based) – Ready to run from either Desktop/ iPad or Mobile browsers.
  • Enhance Customer Support Team’s productivity – Ability to deliver real-time quick and reliable support to customers.
  • Engage Website Visitors to Increase Sales – Engage website visitors by initiating chat requests and guiding them through the right information they are looking for.
  • Powerful Automation – Automation and workflow rules to make the software more efficient and optimized.

We all know there are several live chat tools already available in the market. The question is –

How Vision Helpdesk’s Live Chat Software is different?

The major difference between other live chat software and ours is – It’s a completely in-built tool with our help desk or service desk software.

What does that mean?

Normally, the live chat tools available in the market are simply stand-alone tools and they don’t really gel or become a part of your customer service help desk platform.

We ourselves were using 3rd party chat software for a long time – Though how much we tried to integrate with such 3rd party chat software, it simply did not give us control over the chat flow. Such integrations only offered to convert the ended chats into tickets and few things here and there.

We don’t look at live chat software as just a stand-alone tool but it has to be an internal part of your customer service tools. Thus, allowing your staff agents to do the incident and chat sessions from a single customer service portal.

How Help Desk in-built live chat software will help you?

Now imagine till now we all were made to login to two different staff portals one to manage the help desk incidents and the second to manage the chat sessions. In our case, the live chat will come in-built into your help desk or service desk software.

All-In-One Solution to manage incidents and chats.

1. Your staff will log in to just a single customer service staff portal.
2. You don’t need to create separate staff credentials for live chat and help desk.
3. You can simply grant access to staff for chats, incidents, or both.
4. Staff can access customer’s profile, their ongoing incidents, and chats everything in one place.

In short, You don’t have to go out of your help desk or service desk to manage your customer chats.
