   the live chat button, choose its color scheme, add agent avatars, and do so much
   more.

To stay closer to my clients, I decided to try the live chat option. I did a quick
research on google and found that the software available today can do much more 
than just chatting with my website audience. It was a real surprise for me that 
software like Helpcrunch can offer everything I could think of to interact with 
my clients – chat, emails, popups, help center articles, mobile apps. Some of the
platforms I’ve tried cost a pretty penny. Helpcrunch provides everything I need 
for a very good price. They have a lot of great reviews online and their support
is very fast and pleasant. So I decided to stick with them.

I’m a WP developer and sometimes my clients ask me to find and install live chat
plugin for them. After a quick research and a few talks to support reps of different
companies I decided to stick with HelpCrunch. The chat itself looks great. There’s
a possibility to add help articles to the widget. Pricing is very good. Support 
guys are simply the best (I did not get a timely response from other vendors).

Great piece of software. I tried intercom, zendesk and crisp together with helpcrunch,
and the last one came up as an obvious winner for me. It’s really great that I can
choose what to display in my widget – chat or knowledge base, or even both. Displaying
the knowledge base only becomes very handy when you get a lot of chat requests and
cannot handle them. The only thing I’m missing in helpcrunch is a chatbot, but very
friendly support guys promised me it’d be ready this fall.
