"Great Agile Solution w/ Quick Launch. "
What do you like best about LivePerson?

The best thing about this solution is that it allows you to be completely agile. Our ability to commit to changes quickly and efficiently and continue operations as BAU is a big win.

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

Real time analytics aren't deep enough. Permission roles could be more complex, allowing better access for groups without allowing "too much" access. Mobile experience not customizable enough.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

Be where our customers are. This day in age, many would rather chat live then to be put on hold during a voice call.

"LivePerson review"
What do you like best about LivePerson?

I like the fact that you can have canned responses. It really quickens how fast you can respond to a customer. Another nice feature is the fast keys. For example, if a customer comes on, I only have to click F2 to answer the chat and then I only have to click F3 to go to the next chat response. That way I don't have to click the buttons on the mouse every time.

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

I don't like the history feature. It always gives me errors. I heard that other live chat systems can have you view the other customers screen and see what they have in their shopping cart. That function would be really helpful as often times customers don't tell you what product they are talking about right away.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

This really helps with the quick answers. It is hard for problem customers or upset customers. It is really fast and easy for a customer who just has a question about a product.

"Great Reporting Capabilities"
What do you like best about LivePerson?

I love the reporting. You can report on everything from the time an agent is online to the amount of time a particular skill is available. You can do individual reports on a single agent as well. There's so much information. I love that there are different options based on your company needs. For example, you can have agents select chats from the queue or you can have the chats automatically directed to the agent. We use the second option. It works fantastic for us! The other thing we like is that the system is a smart system and will change an agent's status based on their activity. It has been a really helpful tool!

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

I wish there was a way to export ALL the information using an API of some sort. Currently, we have to manually export all of the information. Also, there's a limit of 13 months of data and a limit of 30 days to capture a single report. I'd like to be able to run a report including data from all last year. Some other things I'd like to be able to do are fill out other reps agent surveys. Customer support via their online chat portal could use some improvement. I feel like they are not very knowledgeable on their own product. I would say more communication from the account manager instead of relying on the online support or either training the online chat support better in answering questions.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are capturing any inbound leads from our website and providing customer service. Our business benefits in capturing those that may have not have contacted us via phone or email. It also provides a different approach to assisting our customers in making a decision on whether or not our company is a good fit. They really do enjoy the live chat experience.

"Using LivePerson as a Business Development Representative"
What do you like best about LivePerson?

Live Person was ideal for creating/editing canned responses for automatic send out as well as re-assigning chats to other team members,

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

Very busy interface and wasn't the most user-friendly in terms of navigation. It was easy to push out links to web pages/PDF's as well as see what pages the prospect was currently viewing.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

Chatting with prospective customers who were interested in learning more about the products/services we offered. It was easy to push out links to web pages/PDF's as well as see what pages the prospect was currently viewing.

"I used LivePerson as a Customer Care agent"

I utilized the hot keys to keep working in a quick and efficient manner.

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

Sometimes LivePerson would disconnect abruptly which would affect the customer's satisfaction.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used LivePerson/ Live Chat to reach customers in a different method-our website. We learned that many of our customers enjoyed this experience because it was available directly on our site and was easy to use.

"The program works as advertised, but there are other programs out there at a fraction of the cost "
What do you like best about LivePerson?

The chat feature is easy to integrate to your website, and the system is powerful. We used this for several years and we didnt have any issues with it.

What do you dislike about LivePerson?

After doing some looking we found another program at a fraction of the cost with more features. After contacting Liveperson to cancel our account, they gave us a lot of push back and said we needed to give several months notice in order to cancel our account.

What problems is LivePerson solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows you direct and easy communication with your customers, this allows you to answer their questions almost immediately leading to moreo orders

Opening up live chat as a customer service channel. It’s a nice platform to start with.
