Capterra verified reviews for LiveAgent

Nathan
Company Owner in UK

Used the Software for: Free Trial

"Powerful support system, even better when integrated"

1 July 2025
5.0 Show more details
So far, very positive. The setup took a bit of time but was worth it once the integrations were running. We now have email, live chat, WhatsApp, Instagram, and WooCommerce all tied together, which makes customer support much more efficient. For a small team like ours, it’s helped reduce the faff and keep everything in one place.
Pros:
We’ve only been using LiveAgent for a few weeks, with a couple of agents, but it’s already proving itself. The integrations are what stand out most — we’ve connected Instagram, WhatsApp, and WooCommerce. Being able to quickly pull up customer orders alongside tickets is a real time-saver. The ticketing system is solid, and the layout makes it easy to follow conversations.
Cons:
The interface could use a refresh in places — it feels a bit dated visually. The mobile app is also slightly clunky compared to the desktop version. That said, it’s functional and does the job.

"Excellent Customer support software"

5 November 2024
5.0 Show more details
Been with liveagent for a couple months now, I am sure there is more to learn, but everything working for me as I expected it too and how I need it too, so I am very happy.
Pros:
I love everything about it, the format, layout the way of ease it helps my work flow to ensure I can easily track customer questions and requests... The live chat feature looks great on our store and the pop ups which I customer starts a chat ensures I dont miss anything, something which happened a lot with our previous software. Couple times I have reached out for support, they've come back very quickly and helped me with my own questions. Really happy with liveagent.
Cons:
To be honest, not really comes across anything... I was looking for something simple, and for me this is it, works so well for my needs and my customers.

"Live agent gets green light"

28 May 2025

Very good overall, an impressive software that we're sure will adapt and develop over time throughout use and feedback.
Pros:
I liked the page layout and simplicity of use, it didn't take much effort or time training others. The price point is good too.
Cons:
It could be faster to react and could have more features or add ons even. There were some lags when multiple users accessed it.
