My experience with Liveengage has been perfect.
Liveengage has provided us with an effective medium to communicate with our clients. Thus we have greatly cut down on financial resource we spend maintaining telephone support, since most of our clients are very much comfortable contacting us via Liveenagege on our website.
Pros
Liveengage is very intuitive and thus very easy to use. All of my helpdesk colleagues have no complaints making use of this helpdesk solution ,same for new agent recruits whom we recently introduced to use this.
I am able to monitor the number of web visitors on our website in real time ,and know their geographical location(this has helped the marketing department).I am able to know what part of the website a website visitor I am chatting with is at ,thus making it easy to better address their challenge.
Liveengage is also very mobile friendly ,and this has made it easy for web visitors accessing our website to have a good experience chatting with our helpdesk team.
Cons
Liveengage has been our trustworthy helpdesk solution for the last two year period. There is absolutely no complaint from my end.

LivePerson - Living up Person's expectations
Overall it is a great communication tool, it helps us a lot giving supports to our customers. We can see a lot of information that help us in that journey - and the fact that is not a hard program to use makes everything 100% better. As I said, it is not perfect and it needs some improvements, but it is simply awesome.
Pros
Very clean interface, meaning is user friendly. We got used to it easily.
Cons
Sometimes the app refreshes all of a sudden, meaning you lost the conversation with customers.

Horrific customer service and stability
Overall live engage is the worst live chat platform I have worked with. The chat feature often just kicks customers out of their chat which is a terrible experience. I have brought this up multiple times and have had no luck with help. Our account manager is oblivious and only contacts us when trying to sell us something. In general customer service is atrocious. We just had a system outage last 5 hours with no word from our account manager or a customer support representative. We will be finding another service provider as soon as possible.
Pros
Ease of use. Reporting package. Dashboard.
Cons
Customer service. Service outages. Glitches.
Response from LivePerson
We're very sorry to hear you are having such a difficult time with our platform. We strive to maintain a superior uptime, but there are times we are unable to deliver :( Curious to know more about your glitches and how our customer service has been lacking for you. We want to make sure we address this for you immediately having customers get kicked off of chats is unacceptable and should never happen. If you're on our messaging platform, customers' conversations are asynchronous, and the chat history does not get deleted, so this should help. We hope you can reach out to us about these issues so we can resolve them for you ASAP!

A better way to connect with web visitors.
LiveEngage serves as a connection between my organization and our customers. To my organization ,LiveEngage has gone beyond just being an help-desk solution , it has enabled us segment web visitors based on activities such as the part of our website they visit,how long they spend on a particular web page ,their past interaction with the help-desk team etc
Pros
LiveEngage is very user friendly and this is the first quality I look out for in any software solution. It enables customization including HTML integration which makes it easy for organizations to personalize the kind of content which comes along with having LiveEngage on their website.
I like the real time monitoring feature which so makes it easy to know where every web visitor is at,on every given time.The customer support agents on LiveEngage is just an extra reason why I love this program , they are polite ,willing to help and are available at all times.
Cons
It takes a while and some in-house training for new users to effectively maximize the benefits of LiveEngage. However ,this tedious learning curve has an huge return on investment for every organization using LiveEngage.

Great software but could use some upgrades
Pros
The ability to pull reports is great. You can set custom dates and filter by specific departments if this software is being used by multiple departments. This helps easily track metrics such as average interaction times, wait times, and any abandoned interactions. This software also makes addressing customer concerns quick and easy in real time. Customer account details display when the interaction is taken.
Cons
The cons I saw with this software is the inability to prioritize chats or allow chats to be taken based on 'cherry-picking'. When you have paid support modals, the ability to be able to pull those interactions right away would be beneficial. You can only take interactions in the order that they are received in the queue. Support issues take a while to resolve.
Response from LivePerson
Thank you for your review! In regard to the con you specified, you should work with your account manager to set that up! We DO in fact offer a configuration where certain departments, agent groups, or specific agent can get priority in receiving messages. You can also set up messages that come into specific departments (ie. message coming into support department vs sales department) to be prioritized over others so that higher-urgency messages can be responded to before lower-priority messages! Please do reach out to your account manager to implement this :) Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!

LiveEngage probably the best app for web chatting
Overall I am satisfied with it, It is easy to use and access and has not glitched on me not even once.
Pros
- It is a great way to enable communication between customers and remote assistance.
- Available to be used in multiple platforms.
- Everything done through it can be tracked, monitored and measured.
- It allows for customization of the general interface and also pre-written answers.
Cons
For as long as I have used it the only negative thing to it that I have been able to observe is that it does not collect customer's name in a way that it can label the chat with it. This can be really confusing when you have multiple chats opened named "visitor".
Response from LivePerson
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We're glad to help make your business more conversational and help provide more in-depth analytics to optimize your business and operations! There is a way to name your "visitor" to their actual name by connecting your sessions to your CRM, so we will be sure to reach out to you to help you set that up!

Easy to use and efficient way to speak to customers
Pros
LivePerson is great because I am able to login to my account anywhere and immediately answer any questions that customers have. We link LivePerson to our website and it is very successful, there is a blue button on all our web pages which makes it easy for anyone to live chat with us. My favorite feature of LivePerson is the ability to know what page a customer is on when they are chatting with us. When we market events and share job openings, it is important for me to know where these job seekers are on our website - that way we can better answer their questions.
Cons
The only thing I like least about the software is the timing mechanism when someone requests to chat. I would prefer for there to be no timer

Best chat tool I have ever used.
Pros
It is quite user friendly and the canned responses feature is quite useful. I have hardly faced any downtime with this software and when I do, it gets up and running in couple of hours. Our company business has grown along with the customer satisfaction because of this tool.
Cons
The UI design is quite old fashioned and can be upgraded to a more sleek and bright design. Apart from this I don't have any complaints.

Simple LiveChat Software to use
It is a great tool with prospects inquiring. Easy to engage and talk to customers about your product.
Pros
Simple to use, offers a lot of info (e.g. where the person is located, type of computer (OS, Windows) and city, State too. It easy to use with other reps and acts in almost in real time.
Cons
The interface is not intuitive, but needs to be revamped, a little outdated. The feature set is limited and more features would not hurt.

Gets better every day!
Overall, the return on investment here is HUGE.
Pros
The introduction of automation and bots in the last 2 months has been absolutely HUGE for us. Our sales reps spend less time answering simple questions and more time closing deals and scheduling demos now. The FAQ bot we got set up with on our live chat window answers all of the most commonly asked questions now and it's been absolutely phenomenal. Customers get their answer, then agent jumps in bring in the sale.
Cons
The learning curve at first was a bit daunting, but in a few weeks you'll realize the analytics built into LiveEngage is second to none. You really need MCS for the agents to know when and if they should jump in to a conversation, in most cases, again, our FAQ bot handles all simple engagements, and then the agent jumps in to close the deal.

Great for basics!
Daily chats and administRation of system - general oversight
Pros
Easy, straightforward chat interface. New updates are AWESOME and give a much more modern and current feel - definitely more user friendly aesthetic now!
Cons
The reporting. Being able to track trends etc of what customers are asking and how they view the service they received
Response from LivePerson
Glad to hear you are having such an easy time leveraging our AI solutions! Our reporting is super robust and our client team can certainly reach out to you to help you build out a trend report based on the keywords that are coming in. Our AI solution can also determine the intent of each conversation so that will help with trends as well!

The software itself works well, but there are other more cost effective options out there.
Pros
We used LivePerson for several years, and didnt have any issues as far as the program and functionality. However we were able to find a new program that was a fraction of the cost and offered all the same features and more.
Cons
When we tried canceling our service with them, the customer service ignored several emails from us, and then tried to charge us for another 3 months of service even though we were not using them and paying month-to-month. In the end we had to fight it out with the credit card company

LiveEngage
The best thing about LiveEngage is their customer support. When our company has experiencing phone troubles and needed a way to communicate with our members LiveEngage stepped up and made that possible is a very short period of time. Their customer support is outstanding.
Pros
The customer services is outstanding. It is web-based and easy to use the chat function. Training our staff took minimal time.
Cons
The reporting feature is cumbersome. Reports are not as easy to retrieve as they were in the old version. I think the report feature could use some enhancements.

Works Well, Very User Friendly
Pros
This program was the easiest live person software out of several we have used.

We were not able to answer chats after hours. We switched to a company we can do this.

Newbie to chat, great for org
Pros
Great way to have multiple employees respond to web inquiries, lowering call volume and non-sales lead form submissions.
Cons
Set up took some time and things on the back end aren't the most intuitive but their chat team is excellent about walking you though things, trouble shooting, etc with screenshots and such.

We used LivePerson for years but the functionality of it was truly lacking.

The canned answer database and shortcut capabilities to send the available answers.
The ability for a supervisor to send a private message in the chat to the agent for them to copy and paste to their chatter.
Cons
Terrible customer service - we were charged for months after closing the account
Removal of desktop app
Drastic changes and updates without any warning or training

Live Engage - Next gen servicing through messaging.
Greater customer engagement and improved CSAT.
Pros
Asynchronous device agnostic messaging and conversation threading are both excellent features. The upcoming integration with bots along with rich messaging capabilities provide for a rick communication experience which our customers love.
Cons
The only con I see in Live Engage is from an administrator perspective, the core customer information panels on the servicing screens can not be customized or removed which presents a bit of challenge as secondary custom panels need to written to overcome the deficiency which causes the precious screen real state to get wasted.
