We went from a very basic chat system to livechat because of it's integrations to salesforce and shopify.
Pros:
The change has been worth it for integrations with salesforce and shopify.
The customer service has been phenomenal.
Customization for messages when there is a sale, a new product, or an event announcement is great.
Was easy to get set-up and running. Wasn't a huge leap for our folks going from a basic system to a more robust one.
Cons:
I do find it frustrating that I have to be at a third-tier payment in order to access basic analytics I used to get easily from my very basic chat system.
I don't find it's "live" list as accurate as my old system. Old used to be pretty much a match to Google Analytics live...this is much lower. Does make me wonder who isn't getting the chat pop-up (but our response numbers haven't dropped so from a KPI standpoint I'm not seeing a huge loss).
It is more than we need because we don't use the customer service (ticket) end of the system.
Daniel was super helpful during my initial plan / install and set up! Very prompt, great customer service and follow up! Tech happens...but the people make all the difference!! Looking forward to using this app! Fantastic option for small businesses like mine to help answer questions and make sales!
We've been up & running on livechat for a week now and are very happy! This is a powerful app and underlying platform.
It was all good until i want to cancel which i couldn't find how to cancel the subscription after 30 mins...
We're glad to hear that you found it beneficial and had positive experiences up until recently. We're sorry that the cancelation process wasn't clearer and caused you some frustration. As with all Shopify apps, uninstalling the app from your Shopify dashboard will automatically cancel your subscription.
We have sent you a follow-up email to ensure everything is resolved and to provide further assistance. Please check your inbox at your earliest convenience
We hope you'll remember the positive aspects of your time with our app.
I searched and searched for the best chat app. Not sure why I didn't start with the Gold Standard of chat apps! I have been using a competing chat app for years before coming over to Shopify. It was good, but nothing like this. LiveChat is so intuitive and user friendly. Plus, the support for this is unparalleled! Thank you!
very good customer service, easy-to-use control panel, you can check all the chats from your all your shopify stores in one place, and you only need to pay for 1 time app fee, great!
The analytics were great. The alerts were terrible. Sometimes we didn't get a notification till after the 3rd message from a customer. They got our billing wrong, and shut down our account...twice. Then when we attempted to chat with them they weren't there.
So why 3 stars: If you are sitting at your computer with their website up, it's a nice interface, good data, and useful.
But if anything goes different, it's a real pain.
Sorry to hear you had billing related problems, Matt - and we agree they shouldn't have happened. We've identified the root cause of the issue and it now works correctly. Fixing your notification issue is a different cup of team. This could be done to many factors, including your device's browser, Internet connection speed, etc. We'll be reaching out to you directly so we can troubleshoot this with you in detail.
Lastly, I'm happy to tell you we're going to add even more reporting tools for sales - expect us to reach out to you shortly with more information. Daniel
I've only been using this app for about a week but already it is miles better than others i've tried. It is simple to use, and I love the fact that there is also a mobile app too, which definitely helps with customer support and therefore conversions
We have used LiveChat for a while now and it works well for almost everything we need out of it. However, the products cards integration with Shopify does not allow you to select product variants. This would be immensely helpful and allow us to give our customers a tailored experience. PLEASE dev this into the integration!
Thanks for the review! This has been added to the list of upcoming improvements to consider.
Other than that, there are some great features in development that will be rolling out over the course of the year. Expect a big announcement from us soon.
Review Update: Customer support reached out to me to clarify some issues I was having, Although this issues I had are still the same they were happy to issue me my refund. So that being said 4 stars because I appreciate excellent customer support because as we all know many companies suck at it , Their chat app is an excellent app I did really like the Product cards. Did not work as expected, SMS did not work support was no help, Although they have Shopify customer insights in the live chat it is not available in the ticket section making tickets useless it customers email you. Their website show pictures that customers can by products from the chat with products cards from Shopify, When tested cards only showed "View Product" When I ask support that said that wasn't real. I cancel service 30 min after installing, they would not refund me my $50.
