Great tool, with a small lack of features

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

HappyFox Chat is slightly over-priced for its availability. Once we spoke to a very kind sales-man from them, we were pleased with the integration of dozens of APIs with other platforms. The interface is certainly appealing.

Cons:

HappyFox chat lacks certain features such as keeping both support members when transfering a chat until one takes over. We also found a slight issue with scheduling more than 1 language on the interface.

Brilliant to have unlimited agents

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: HappyFox has been easy to integrate into our services, the agents prefer its versatility to the old platform we are using and the ability to have unlimited agents is a lifesaver for us!

Pros:

Having unlimited agents is such a relief. We switched from another chat function platform because they charged for each additional agent. We have saved a lot of money in the long run and we're so glad to have made the move! The system is a much sleeker version than we had before, with some cleaver features that have really helped improve our service.

Cons:

The analytics aren's as comprehensive as the platform we are using before, but they do show the basic info of how many chats we have on certain days.

Fatal issue on Android and they couldn't fix it in 30 days.-

1.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Well, it's fairly easy to use and fairly affordable compared to competition.

Cons:

They had a problem with smaller Android devices where user couldn't basically send a message using the chat as the text typed wasn't showing. Told about the problem to the company, and they were not able to solve it in 26days (as of now). So you've got a fatal error with like 30% of the devices and you're not all red flag trying to solve the problem? Not good.

Helped Konnekt sell more seniors video phones in the first 2 weeks

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: HappyFoxChat helps Konnekt with customers who don't like to telephone us to enquire about seniors video phone, and who need instant answers (which email doesn't provide).
It also helps our customers in other time zones where they don't want to be on the phone so early/late (because they might be typing from their bedroom or a shared living area).
It also helps with customers whose first language is not English.
It is gaining Konnekt more seniors video phone sales and leads, and allowing us to help more customers who have an elderly parent who struggles with loneliness, social isolation, memory loss or who simply can no longer use a tablet or phone.

Pros:

Great support. Automatic translation. Works with CRM, WordPress, Google Analytics, MailChimp, etc etc. Android app available. When I'm busy, I can either show no chat available, or have an offline email-only "mode".

Cons:

I would've liked the live chat preview to be included in the cheaper product option, but this is really a minor issue or a "wish". We love the product and use it daily.

So easy!

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: Overall this has been a great product so far and we look forward to using it for a long time!

Pros:

This is one of the easiest chat features to implement. We just started using it this week, but it's very user friendly and is helping us with our technology work tickets. We started organically by not advertising, but people are starting to see the chat button and use it for their quick questions.

Cons:

We don't have any complaints so far. I suppose it would be nice if it integrated into our ticket system so it was easy to create a ticket right from the chat.

HappyFox Chat Review

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: HappyFox Chat is great and if you're already using HappyFox Help Desk it makes complete sense to use the chat as well.

Pros:

HappyFox chat is easy to use and has decreased our overall response time drastically. Our users are very satisfied with how quickly we can come to a resolution.

Cons:

The only thing that would be nice is if there was built-in spellcheck. It's really not an issue, more so just a feature request.

Very comprehensive

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Perfect integration

Pros:

I use this software daily on my WooCommerce website. What I like the most is the ease of use and the very comprehensive integration that is allowed with WooCommerce

Cons:

I would say that even if it is very easy to use, the numerous sections and menus can be just a bit messy sometimes

Excellent Experience

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: for the price it is a pretty good app but if they can improve the design and add more features would be okay to even sell for a better higher price.

Pros:

Very user friendly design. Also, it is affordable for a starting business. New features have been adding up from recent new updates. It is a very good tool to connect with customers to increase sales.

Cons:

Many people doesn't know about the software therefore needs more marketing. Need to add more features and updating. New chat designs needed to be added.

Fantastic live chat experience

5.0 8 years ago

Cons:

- Little expensive - Some nice features are available only for users in paid plans

The best live chat I've used, great features included in the free version!

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: I had a live chat that looked like from the 90's... I was looking for something that wouldn't increase my fixed costs and that would permit a Slack integration. HappyFox is a perfect fit for me.

Pros:

The design, ease of use and integrations.

Cons:

Nothing so far.

Well-integrated chat service that's affordable to boot!

5.0 7 years ago

Pros:

I love that HappyFoxChat connects with so many apps and channels. Finally, a practical omni tool for connecting with customers.

Cons:

There are a couple minor gripes with the design of the chat widgets, but they're mostly preference-based. Some chat services like Intercom have a better UI, but they're also exponentially more costly.
