What Is Included With Live Chat Software
Ability to have multiple operators (agents) watching site Monitor your web site with one or more operators. Create operator accounts as needed and control the web sites they're permitted to monitor. Operators can chat privately between themselves.
Multiple web site capability Monitor multiple web sites and see where chat requests are coming from. One operator can manage multiple web sites, and multiple operators can manage multiple web sites. Our live chat software is flexible enough to be configured to your customer support needs.
Manual and automatic "invites" Ask web site visitors if they need assistance by sending them an invite to chat. Displays as an 'eye-catching' floating image that can be accepted or declined. Invites can be configured to send at a specified time, or sent manually by the operator(s).
Customizable "invite" requests Choose whether you want to display a generic 'chat now' image or a chat invite box containing custom text you specify. Very useful in sending personalized invite requests based on what the visitor is viewing on your web site.
Chat images with proper status shown Allows your web site to include 'chat now with an operator' images. It automatically displays a different image based on whether the customer support agent is available or unavailable. You control chat acceptance status within the web-based console, and chat image changes take effect instantly.
Chat images can be customized Use our default online/offline chat images or use those designed by you. You can also choose to show an 'offline' image, or no image, when all your operators/staff are offline. The chat window 'logo' can be customized as well.

Push functionality Using live support software you can enter a URL into an input box and send ("push") the link to a web site visitor, resulting in their browser going to that address. This is very useful if you want to help them find a particular web page on your site.
Co-browse technology Follow along with visitors while they go through your web site with the help of an additional browser window that shows what your customer is viewing. The customer support agent co-browse window changes as the visitor changes pages.
Audio and visual notifications of chat requests and chat messages typed When a website visitors clicks on the 'chat now' image, you'll be notified via sound and visual notification within the operator console. Sounds will occur even if operator console is minimized. 'System tray' (taskbar) notification (for those operators with/without external sound) is also available.
Block abusive live chat sessions Troublesome web site visitor abusing your 'chat now' feature? Now you can ban/block those visitors with the click of a link in the live chat software. They'll no longer be able to initiate a chat with an operator, and other operators will be notified of the ban.
