Moses T
Marketer
3.0

Moses: My name is Moses. I'm a consultant for Automate Accelerator. My rating for LiveAgent is three out of five. So before using LiveAgent, we used other help support. One that I can recall is Zendesk. So that's a platform that we use. One that we went with LiveAgent was the support function that LiveAgent was giving, and at the same time, it allows us to have multiple users on LiveAgent. And allow training of staff to use LiveAgent for support tickets was really, really easy. It also allows us to give more help option through our end users, not only from a texting perspective of a virtual assistant, but at the same time putting on video calls for them to actually utilize as well. So it was fairly challenging at the start to onboard LiveAgent. The only reason was there was a learning curve with the technology, and there was a user interface issue with the system at the point of time. But once we got onboarded, it was really, really easy to get going and to onboard new staff, and training of new staff on it as well. So, if you're considering using LiveAgent, I would say budget would definitely be a top option of mine, because LiveAgent is fairly pricey. It goes on per user seat basis. But at the same time, in terms of functionality, it is one of the best in the market. So that's something definitely to consider as well.
