Recommendations to others considering AnswerDash:
The roadmap for this company isn't necessarily clear to me. I've gotten emails announcing them launching a Facebook chat bot, but it took weeks for a UI-bug with their chat bubble to get looked at. On a web-product, that's like 4 years.
Make sure you have someone who wants to set up and manage AD for a meaningful amount of their time - I'd say 2-5 hours per week once you're set up, but much more to get configured, integrated with whatever you do Support out of, and establish a process flow that everyone on the team can follow. REMEMBER: this product won't be useful unless you establish a team-wide culture around documentation and adding answers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What problems is AnswerDash solving and how is that benefiting you?
Frivolous, or obvious questions in our live chat were distracting support agents all day. AD helps deflect those since their questions are usually so straightforward.
Our Support agents spend about half as much time talking to live chats - and usually now that's with real customers or likely buyers who have deep questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
