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!

LiveChat has been great for JetSkiCovers on Shopify. The support is excellent, and features like sending Product Cards and sharing order details during chats enhance customer interactions. Highly recommend for a straightforward and effective customer support experience!

The service is good with one MAJOR caveat- you cannot schedule the chat to stop, so if you forget to close the app, it stays on all night and customers come into the chat when nobody is there. A simple way to have it autostop is much needed.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. You mentioned that you would like to be able to stop the chat after your working hours. I'm happy to inform you that this feature is already in place. Additionally, your chat widget can be configured to provide an experience similar to social messaging apps like Facebook or WhatsApp, allowing for asynchronous communication. This means that you and your customers can communicate even when one of you is offline. You won't have to worry about leaving your customers hanging as they wait for a response. I will send you an email with more details on how to configure the chat widget to provide this feature. ^DZ

App is very nice, but the prices are extremely expensive for SB, They don't honor shopify prices either!
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. If there is anything specific that you particularly liked about it, please don't hesitate to share it with us. This is super valuable. As with any business, regardless of size, we consider multiple factors when setting our prices - development, security, maintenance, and support. Regardless, we aim to offer a high-quality product at a fair price. Although our prices are fixed, subscribing to our yearly plan can grant you a discounted rate. Wanted to point that out. Separately, the prices are as stated. We need more information regarding the issue you're referring to before we can investigate. We will contact you via email.

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.

We've been up & running on livechat for a week now and are very happy! This is a powerful app and underlying platform.

Overly complicated and unintuitive for such a simple use case. I chatted to support and finished my call by saying "Thanks, but I am going to find another solution" and the reply was "You're welcome". Unreal
Ruairi, thanks for posting the review. To start, there are exceptions to some settings/rules -- please review the email that we sent out 7/6; it should clear the confusion. Separately, our support didn't intend to be rude or anything -- they replied "You're welcome" to your last message "Thanks for your help". That's it. I'm sorry that things turned out this way.

Not bad, but it's not the best, we had to uninstall it and move to a better app, we tried to get a refund for the remaining three months of our yearly plan and they refused; that is bad and was not expecting it from a company like live chat who has been in the market for ages and knows we are going thro a pandemic and small business have been impacted. So I do not recommend their service, but I do recommend (Chatra) a trending new app.
Thanks for posting this. To your review, LiveChat subscriptions are generally non-refundable, but we do try to be reasonable about refunds. An explanation of what didn’t work for you and your reasons for requesting a refund is always a good start. So far, we've heard shout-outs to the support team from you; there's nothing on missing features, etc. A member of our team will follow up on your request shortly.

This our my go-to app in Shopify, using it daily. Well done, a lot of features, I like the integration with iPhone/Android, so that desktop and mobile chats are synchronized. Also like that it shows us real-time visits, stats, plenty of widget customization options. So far, great experience with the app

I’m extremely old school when it comes to servicing my customers. My main goal has always been, and still remains, to stay one step ahead of what my customer may want or need in order to accommodate. Anticipating their needs always assists in keeping a customer feel taken care of and happy. Now that e-commerce is a mainstay, this task is a bit more daunting. Livechat has been an integral tool to let the customer know that help is just a click away in addition to allowing suggested products to increase the sale and in turn, revenue!

We've been using LiveChat for years and have found it invaluable for our customer service. This is the first Shopify integration we've done and we had a small hiccup with domain approval on our development store, but the LiveChat team sorted it out promptly and were very friendly.

VERY BAD SERVICE... I TRIED TO LOGIN IN FOR MANY DAYS AND THE SUPPORT TEAM DOESNT WANT TO HELP, SO I DOWNLOADED TIDIO! SORRY BUT YOU NEED TO HELP YOUR CUSTOMERS...
Sorry for the bad experience. A few things might have been better explained. First up, we couldn’t agree more that the process of resting your lost account login can be a little bit daunting. We’ve all been there! To add to that, we treat security issues very seriously and since mishandling of your sensitive data could potentially lead to compromising of your account. We'd be happy to explain this in more detail — you can expect an email from us.

Absolutely recommend for the level of reporting and customer service provided when I had some troubles re-installing the app again.

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.

Great app. Beats the competition in terms of integration and really helps to streamline the customer care process. I'd surely recommend it, as it is worth it's the price. Also, LiveChat support is really helpful, and resolves issues fast!

This is the best live chat app I've come across. It integrates extremely easily and has some really nice features like being able to send customers "Product Cards" (instead of the URLs) and a timer which shows how long customers have to wait to be connected. Very happy.
Thanks for the review! If you have any feedback or suggestions as to how we could make Product Cards even better do let us know and drop us an email at apps[at]livechat.com.

App doesn't give much value. First of all, it blocks the Shopify "checkout" button on mobile devices so you lose sales. Also as a CRM, it doesn't work well as you can't even find a list of customers you've interacted with although they've given you their contact details. Finally, you have to talk to the support agent to get them to cancel your subscription and guess what? they can't cancel your account either
Thanks for sharing. We have some news, updates, and announcements coming your way. By default, the chat widget is showing up in the middle of your site on mobile. However, you can make changes to the position, appearance, and other options via Settings > Chat widget > Customization. It is also possible to disable it altogether on mobile. As of now the Customer Insight widget (aka our CRM) gives you access to customer details, transaction history, real-time cart preview, and product recommendations. We would love to listen to your feedback on how we can improve Customer Insight — you can expect an email from us. Separately, all chat transcripts are stored and can be accessed later on (via Archives). Using filters / the search option you can locate past conversations that include contact details and other information. Lastly, uninstalling the app automatically cancels your subscription with LiveChat -- this applies to all Shopify (public) apps. We can confirm that your subscription is no longer active.
