What do you like best about FreshChat?

its easy to integrate with my web channel, and we wanted Agent-like, automated behavior to get started to provide the initial support query. Our developer worked with the FreshChat team ( there were some initial API issues); however it worked seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FreshChat?

when we are working with the API integration, we were stuck with the issues; the support turn around from Freshchat took some time unexpectedly. It later sorted with relationship manager as we were doing initial POC Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FreshChat solving and how is that benefiting you?

it was helping us to take the primary support query use-cases before we bring the agent to step in further. The handover were very seamless and the ui was very intuitive. Post the data reports also very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
