LiveChat versus Slaask

LiveChat, originally from Poland, has been in the online customer service software business since 2002, being one the first companies to provide a live chat function to websites.

As one of the largest providers they offer a large number of app integrations and customization possibilties, ranging from CRM to e-commerce and help-desk software.

Their cheapest plan starts at $16 per month for one agent. A lot of features, analytics, and plugins are paid options or only available in their more expensive plans. They don’t offer a free plan. However, a 14 days free trial is available.

LiveChat has a substantial customer base consisting of over 35,000 companies worldwide. Among their customers are titans of industry like Adobe, Atlassian, PayPal, and Unilever.

Slaask is THE customer service app for all Slack users.

Slaask is hyperspecialized and 100% Slack-based. It allows you and your company to unify all of your internal and external communication: interact with your leads and customers wherever they are (your site, Facebook page, Twitter page, iOS app, Android app, your mailbox, etc.) from a single point in space: Slack!

By allowing you to have your internal and external communication in the same place, tab-toggling is a thing of the past, no more time is wasted switching between different tools as everything happens in your Slack workspace. The best part? Completely transparent on the customer side.

We wrote an article that includes Slaask as one of the 6 best Slack Chat Providers in 2022.

Slaask’s features allow you to take care of all your customers’ needs: from our Marketplace to our Meetings feature, and not forgetting our powerful Conversation Flows feature which allows you to create specific paths for your customers to follow based on their needs. These flows can be either 100% automatic or a mix of automatic communication and human input, allowing you to filter incoming conversations and focus on the ones most important to your business.

Notable customers of Slaask include Cumul.io, Windoo, and Sky Rocket Development.
