Customer support has never been so as important as it is now, in this era of
customer centricity. Customer support can be provided through the telephone, through
email and through online chatting.

Call centers have become popular in recent years for their ability to respond to
customer queries in real time over the standard telephone networks. Call centers
have been a successful phenomenon but it has its own limitations (discussed later).
Email support is asynchronous and hence cannot be compared to Telephone or chat
based support. Live chat is for customer support is picking up as a concept as
compared to call centers and customer support on the phone. The experiences of
customers using live chat versus the telephone are totally different. Average hold
times are far shorter for live chat since operators can handle several chats at the
same point of time. LivehelpGenie helps to resolve different issues faster than
phone support and easily exchange text based data like URLs, Images, Emails and
Passwords that are often complex to communicate verbally by phone. The speed of
resolution and ability to perform other tasks while on hold gives your customers a
more productive and satisfying customer service experience with your company.

There are several live chat tools available in the market, that enable an
organization to chat with their website visitors in real time through their website.


There are several advantages that chat based support has over telephone based support.

Chat based customer support is far more cost effective that voice based support. In
a call center, a customer support agent can handle only one call at a time. In a
chat based contact center a customer support agent can handle more than one chat at
a time. He can multiplex. Hence the agents are able to provide support to more
customers in lesser cost and time.

A chat conversation enables a customer agent to send links, images and other digital
information which assists him in providing customer support. For e.g. If an agent is
explaining something about a Television to the customer, he can send some pictorial
aids and links through the chat to make it easy for the customer to understand.

Chat based support makes it possible for people all over the world to interact
freely. It does not impose any accent barriers in the communication.
Thus we see that chat based support is the most efficient and effective means of
customer support.
