If you are looking for the tool not only for communicating with your customers but also for tracking each step they take at your website, Smartsupp might have something for you. Video recording functionality enables you to see the video of each and every visit of your customer at your website. Seems awesome, doesn’t it? The drawback is that as soon as you have more visitors coming, you might end up with hundreds of videos and the software does not provide you with any heat map analysis or overall statistics.

Are we the only ones who hate receiving automatic messages in chat window, pretending that they are actual people? Drift’s solution enables you to program your fancy looking customer service bot to have first interaction with your visitor. The bot can either collect more information about your customer before you jump in, would automatically direct the conversation to the specific person or help the customer reach the correct sub-website to resolve his/her problem. After all, you are the one who should be responding but maybe with time it will be able to answer all the questions?

But not with Intercom — their live chat (or rather a pricy mix of products Respond + Engage) provides you with direct, precise and simply visualized information about your website’s visitors such as their workplace, e-mail, location, previous interest in your products or their current behavior at your website. You can also create profiles of your team members so that your customers feel they’re really talking to a real person. All of this for a hefty price of $106 per month…
