Live Support

An Omni-channel Customer Engagement Tool

Switch Connect Live Support enables businesses of all sizes to engage their customers via voice, video, chat, document sharing and screenshare services; from a phone, the web or popular social media sites. Seamlessly escalate from a simple chat session or phone call into a robust multi-media connection. Leverage popular CRMs to manage workflows and powerful tools like cobrowsing to help customers complete complex tasks or assure a high-value sale.

Use Live Support as a standalone contact centre or in concert with a legacy call centre

Live Support uses Switch Connect Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution, meaning its cloud-based and elastically scales from 1 to 1,000 agents, instantly. There’s no software to install…, period. Agents, supervisors and administers connect instantly via a web browser. Set-up takes minutes, not months and the administration portal even generates the embed code to add a custom Live Support button and menu to a website.

Users can use a traditional phone number or select from an intuitive visual menu tree to contact the right sales or support agent. Start with a simple chat to a chatbot and seamlessly escalate to a live agent, without losing any of the conversation or context. Live Support delivers the experience customers really want.

Live Support Helps Customers in Context

• Website, Social or Phone: Live Support connects your customers and prospects instantly!
• Smartphone Friendly: Connects to almost any device. Customers can use their phone’s
camera to share pictures or video.
• Choice of Media: Text, web chat, social, voice or video call; whatever connection gets the
task resolved.
• Screenshare and Co-browsing: Makes it easy for agents to direct customers to the right
information online or even step them through forms or a purchasing process.
• Seamless Experience: Conversations can change media types (chat to voice to video) or
escalate from AI to a live agent, without starting the conversation over or losing
conversation history.

Agents are as Close as their Web Browse

The Live Support agent console automatically logs your agents into their designated support group and allows them to see the pending chat, voice and video requests. Agents can manage up to 10 simultaneous chat sessions and can change their availability manually and automatically. And all of the customer interactions are tracked and recorded. Your agents can see the transcript of the chats and can send them to the users via email if needed.

Use Live Support in Concert with a Legacy

Customer Connect feature adds multimedia experience to phone calls

Live Support can be overlaid on top of an existing call centre environment. Live Support enables agents to promote a traditional call that arrives in call centre and needs additional services.

Agents send a web link or text message (SMS) to the user to escalate the call. When the user clicks on the link it opens a 2nd session in the browser for screen share, co-browsing and video. Audio stays on the original phone call so there’s no disruption to the call or reporting metrics.

Customers will appreciate Live Support’s modern features like using a phone camera to help illustrate or troubleshoot a problem.
