What is LiveAgent?

LiveAgent is a help desk that brings email, live chat, phone, social media and contact forms into one workspace. It adds ticketing, a knowledge base, a built-in call center and an AI chatbot. Channels include Facebook, X, Instagram, WhatsApp, Viber and Telegram. The vendor lists 200+ integrations.

Who is it for?

Support teams that want phone, chat and social in one tool at a low per-agent price. The site names NASCAR, Oxford, Hyundai, Slido and Geodis as customers. Teams that need only email ticketing may not need the call center or social channels.
