### "Excellent Tools for Responsive and Efficient Client Service"

April 10, 2026

5.0

As a non-profit employment service organization, Opportunities for Employment (OFE) values tools that help us respond quickly, professionally, and consistently to the people we serve. LiveChat, ChatBot, and Helpdesk have been very beneficial for our team. LiveChat allows us to connect with job seekers and community members in real time, making it easier to answer questions, provide guidance, and create a welcoming first point of contact. ChatBot helps us extend support beyond regular office hours by responding to common inquiries and directing people to the right information or next steps. Helpdesk gives our team a more organized way to manage inquiries, track follow-up, and ensure nothing gets missed. Together, these tools have improved our responsiveness, strengthened the client experience, and helped us serve people more efficiently.

Pros

LiveChat, ChatBot, and Helpdesk have been excellent tools for OFE. They have helped us improve responsiveness, organize inquiries, and provide better support to the job seekers and community members we serve. LiveChat makes real-time communication easy, ChatBot helps with quick answers and after-hours support, and Helpdesk keeps our team coordinated and efficient. These tools have strengthened our service delivery and improved the overall client experience.

Cons

Setting up LiveChat and a ChatBot can be a bit overwhelming, but the support team is excellent and will walk you through any challenges that occur.

### "Unreliable service, wasted money, no support"

December 21, 2025

1.0

I paid for this live chat service for years and it has consistently failed to work properly. The system disconnects on its own without any warning, incoming client chat requests are not notified, and messages are missed entirely. As a result, both we and our clients were left frustrated and dissatisfied. The software is unreliable, outdated in its logic, and poorly designed. It behaves differently depending on whether it is used via browser or mobile, with absurd functional limits for a paid professional service. Managing it is laborious and pointless. It provides no benefit to client support and actively damages it. Despite these ongoing failures, payments were taken regularly. I never received proper assistance or meaningful technical support, despite repeated problems over time. The service never matched what was promised or reasonably expected. We have cancelled our account and are waiting for a refund. This service wasted time, money, and caused continuous operational stress. I strongly advise avoiding it.

Pros

Nothing. No reliable functionality, no support, no benefit for client management. The only positive aspect was the initial promise of a multi-site live chat solution, which on paper appeared suitable for managing client enquiries across several websites. Unfortunately, this promise was never fulfilled in practice. Beyond the basic concept, there was no real advantage, no reliability, and no tangible benefit in daily operations. The service failed to deliver any meaningful positive experience over the years of use.

Cons

The service disconnects without warning. Incoming chat requests receive no alerts. Browser use breaks mobile use and the reverse occurs. Functional limits are absurd for a paid service. The platform feels obsolete, slow, and exhausting to manage. Support was absent despite years of payments. Clients complained due to missed messages and lack of responses.

### "Reliable and user-friendly Live Chat solution"

March 25, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience with LiveChat has been very positive. It has improved communication efficiency and helped provide faster support to customers. The setup process was straighfoward, and the platform has remained reliable in day-to-day use. While there are minor limitation, the benifits outweight the drawbacks, making it a solid choice for businesses looking to enhance customer interaction.

Pros

LiveChat stands outfor its ease of use and quick setup . The interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy for both new and experienced user to navigate without much training. Customer support is responsive and helpful whenever issues come up. The platform offers strog communicationtools, including real-time chat updates, canned responses, and integrations with other systems. Overall, it delivers great value for money considering the features and reliability.

Cons

One downside is that someadvanced features require higher-tier plans, which can get expensive over time. The customization options, while decent, could be more flexible for branding and workflow automation. Occasionally, updates may change the layout or sttings, requiring users to readjust. Also, reporting features could be more detailed for deeper analytics.

### "Chatting with LiveChat"

March 28, 2026

5.0

It's been an invigorating experience for our team while we implement the broad range of customization tools as well as relying on the AI copilot to further enhance the client experience.

Pros

Loving the versatility and customization available within the software. We're already integrating it with other apps we use to create a really curated experience for our clients.

Cons

No cons! I have always wanted to onboard LiveChat after using it myself as a consumer. Now using it as a business user, I find it super easy to adopt and implement.

### "Good for customer service, could be more intuitive"

September 8, 2025

5.0

Overall my experience is good. The only feature I find a challenge is the campaigns set up and monitoring. This could be made more intuitive.

Pros

We like using LiveChat because it offers online access to a team both via various devices, which ensures we can respond to clients on the move.

Cons

The price has increased dramatically over the last few years and this means it is becoming less viable as a customer support tool

### "What I Comprehend about LiveChat"

August 31, 2025

5.0

Pros

It was easy to implement and use LiveChat without third-party intervention. I like that it allows me to communicate with customers and prospects via live chat and video.

Cons

Even though LiveChat lack capabilities for global enterprises, it suites the needs for my Human Resources agency.

### "LiveChat in School"

July 13, 2025

5.0

Real-time communication is one of the benefits that I gain with LiveChat. Engaging with customers and prospects through LiveChat boost sales and in-turn high ROI.

Pros

LiveChat facilitates features that enables me to communicate with our private school customers via live chat, email and phone across any device.

Cons

LiveChat is the most robust customer support program for schools since it is easy to use unlike other alternatives.

### "Enables the basics of customer management."

July 10, 2025

5.0

Theoretically, all problems that arises in sales and extend into upstream or downstream processes are solvable. Essentially, this means that the system supports me in solving my customer's problems and thanks to a central database and a 360 degree view, I quickly have all the relevant information at my fingertips.

Pros

A simple user interface with the ability to incorporate customizations. Shortcuts for filters, reminders and to-dos. The option to automatically hide information ensures confidentiality. It also offers specialized support, including a cloud based integration system for increased security in various areas.

Cons

I'm a happy and confident customer working with LiveChat. The system might be a bit confusing at first glance and due to the large range of functions, it takes some time to get used to it.

### "How to get to the bottom of an upgrade or downgrade"

April 2, 2026

5.0

Quick. Easy to use. Easy to reach someone. Easy to navigate. Completely useful in every way one should expect from a LiveChat.

Pros

Everything! But is a bit pricey overall. I really like the way it is added seamlessly into my websites.

Cons

Price for upgrade beyond Starter Plan. If only there was a better way to upgrade to at least one more seat without being charged so much more than only one seat.

### "Thanks for the assistance rendered by Support."

March 27, 2026

4.0

So far it is pretty good. There are always areas to improve the platform. Will be great to include more automation system with respect to AI.

Pros

Customer Support is always on hand to help. A good customer support platform for businesses to deploy.

Cons

Should have more Apps or Tools as part of the generic platform rather than having to pay for many of them. E.g. Ticketing system for tracking and monitoring.

### "LiveChat: More than a valuable tool"

March 27, 2025

5.0

I've been using LiveChat to support 2 web sites for our company for about 9 years and find that it's more than a valuable tool. True, we use it for a highly technical website and basically serve in a reactive role. The canned responses have saved us time and is great for new agents who don't quite have all the answers. Having the app on my phone also gives me freedom to leave my desk but not miss any incoming chats. But LiveChat is also a big part of improving our customer relations. The customers really enjoy getting immediate help the moment they need it. We also onboard new customers who are inquiring about our services and prices - in real time! LiveChat has become a permanent part of our customer service experience. It is invaluable in supporting current customers and winning new ones!

Pros

LiveChat is so easy for new employees to grasp basic concepts and start using it. It's very similar to texting or messaging apps on anyone's phone.

Cons

Although rarely needed, the support is best done through email. Their chat box for customer service seems to be a bot, which can be frustrating to use.

Reason for choosing LiveChat

SSC was cost-prohibitive when comparing features. SSC was the LiveChat was an integrated product that had a more elegant and feature-rich interface. But we couldn't justify the cost of implementing it when compared with LiveChat.

### "Great customer support and UI, limited customization "

February 13, 2026

4.0

Pros

Very easy to use, minimal coding experience, seamless integration on website, decent internal reporting capabilities, great customer support with setting up and ongoing

Cons

Limited customization of AI responses, had some spam come through that muddied up responses, AI responses could be improved with longer, more-detailed questions

### "Avoid This Company – Fraudulent Charges & Terrible Customer Service"

February 27, 2025

1.0

I’ve since issued a chargeback with Capital One to recover my money. On top of that, their service is way overpriced for what they offer. You’re much better off using Zoho Chatbot, which provides far better value and customer support. Avoid LiveChat at all costs!

Pros

Avoid This Company – Fraudulent Charges & Terrible Customer Service

Cons

I canceled my LiveChat membership almost a year ago, yet out of nowhere, their system started charging my card in December, January, and February. When I contacted them to request a refund, they flat-out refused, despite the fact that I had already canceled long ago. This company is fraudulent, and their billing practices are highly questionable

Soho Chatbot allows you to customize frequently. Ask questions. The chat bought then responds based on your customizations saves you time and money and allows you to focus on your company rather than answering the same questions over zoho chat bot is the best

### "Try Live Chat!"

December 4, 2025

5.0

Fast and easy especially when you don’t have the time for a call back or to reach a real person. I recommend Live Chat.

Pros

Quick and easiest software to use when you don’t have a live representative available on the phone. I always go for a live chat.

Cons

Takes some time getting used too. But totally worth it once you’re used to it after a few times. It’s great!

June 30, 2025

5.0

Pros

LiveChat allows me to offer instant response to clients via live chat and telephony calls which help retain them even when they are having issues.

### "Resourceful, efficient and very dependable "

September 14, 2025

5.0

Overall, I am very satisfied with Livechat and would highly recommend to my colleagues and other professionals for long term reliable use.

Pros

The fast, friendly and effective support I receive in a short time frame. I always receive a prompt helpful response from the staff filled with enthusiasm.

Cons

Although, they are most always helpful and eager to provide the correct information sometimes they are not providing the most current information as to statistics. But for the most part they provide up to date resources.

### "Small Company, big service!"

December 18, 2024

5.0

I always liked using live chat to interact with customers, but when we launched our Shopify store this year and entered into the world of e-commerce, I learned just how much more Live Chat could do for me. With strategically built campaigns I am now targeting the right customer, with the right message at the right time.

Pros

It's an easy and convenient way to interact with my customers. Very intuitive to use and allows me to chat with more than one customer as a time. My organization does not use chat bots, only real employees.

Cons

Some of the e-commerce tools require me to know about website coding, whereas I am a customer service manager. luckily my web team helps so that we can use campaigns and trackers to their full extent

Reason for choosing LiveChat

We were more comfortable with LiveChat having used it for some years before our e-commerce partners suggested we switch to Gorgias; with a heftier price tag we found Gorgias didn't offer anything that was really above and beyond what we had with LiveChat and we have since began using LiveChat even better!

LiveChat enhances real-time messaging which keeps our website visitors engaged. Mobile support for both iOS and Android apps is another great aspect.

### "User engagement enhanced with Live chat"

March 3, 2025

5.0

I integrated Live chat with my client's website and it brought a lot of value in first 30 days of use. It resulted in enhanced user engagement and doubt clearance instead of traditional user flow like filling and submitting a contact form. This not only made the website look rich but also uplifted the overall functionality on the system.

Pros

The best thing about Live chat is that it engages a user with curated flow of questions until a representative is available to take it further, this makes handling the SLAs so easy that my client always received best CSATs from end customers.

Cons

No cons really. I am really of an opinion that Live Chat is much ahead of the competition with their wide range of offering, hence making life easier.

### "Solid App With Unusual Business Practices"

December 2, 2024

1.0

The app itself is quite good. I would not risk the relationship with a friend or colleague by recommending the company.

Pros

The app itself works well. We used it on our site for several years without issue.

Cons

You need to be paying attention. Their billing practices are unusual. A stated policy (I have a copy of the chat transcript if required) is that they do not provide advance warning of pending annual subscription charges. We longer use the app due to change in our direction and we should have cancelled the subscription. That is on us 100%. This morning, we received the receipt for our freshly paid subscription paid through 11/30/2025 that also indicated a 25% increase in year over year subscription costs.

March 13, 2025

5.0

Overall LiveChat is a great tool to communicate with your customers. Customers nowadays want instant help and that's what we've trained our operations to provide, with the help of Live Chat. It is also fairly affordable every month.

Pros

Our customers love the opportunity to chat with our service reps in real time at the click of a button instead of calling in. Our chat operators appreciate how easy it is to service multiple customers simultaneously.

Cons

Some of the reporting is only available for users of the top tier plans.
