"Customer support for online tutoring"

4.5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

Happy Fox is simple to use with an aesthetically pleasing interface. There is not a lot of training that's needed to learn how to use it. We use it in a very limited capacity, but as such, there's more need for a simple platform to connect with our customers for their immediate needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

Not much. I think the chat information could be displayed in a slightly easier-to-read format when the customer initially starts a chat, or more identifying characteristics could be put at the top of the chat box. But that's being picky. I wish there was a better notification system so that I don't miss chats; some kind of browser notification would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HappyFox Chat:

It's a very simple tool for customer support that helps you keep track of your customers' needs at all time. We use Happy Fox in a limited capacity but with all of the options available, I can see us using it when we expand our products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can connect with our users directly and immediately so they can get help when they need it. It's always frustrating to have to email customer service just for them to answer a simple question and then have to wait for a response. Immediately helping our customers allows us to solve problems quickly and efficiently, and allows us to connect directly with them so they realize that this company is run by people, not just software.

"Awesome UI, love saved history!"

5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

We have about 14 people using Happy Fox on rotation so it's helpful to know who helps who and how many users are visiting the site each day. We each have different profiles so we can see who is on, and the best feature of all is being able to switch a customer from one support person to another so that they are getting the right answers without having to wait too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

I'm not really sure what the updates every week do, even though I know there are build notes somewhere. Otherwise, it's been pretty straightforward and clear for us to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent app"

5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

I love the clean and easy-to-use interface. HappyFox Chat has all-round great functionalities (mobile app, desktop app, web app...) and excellent integrations with other services such as Wordpress! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

Limited integrations on free accounts for very small businesses who don't need a paid account, limited customization. I would like to see an artificial intelligence integration through api.ai or example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HappyFox Chat:

Easy to install on any platform. I tried looking at lots of other solutions but HappyFox Chat is the best solution out there. I think it's a fantastic service that can only get better and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have been using HappyFox Chat on our company's website for over a year and a half now, and it has converted visitors into customers on many occasions. Being ready and available at any time to respond to a visitor's questions (via the mobile app) is very reassuring for the visitor and creates trust and confidence in our business.

"Easy and simple chat for your site."

4.5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

One of the best chat programs that I have ever used, its usage is simple and neat, and requires almost no technical knowledge. I found Happy Fox when I was in search of a chat app that had integration with Pipedrive, our CRM tool, and it's one of the free Happy Fox integrations. I also am using the Mailchimp integration, which helps to grow my contact list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

I would like to have more customization in the widget, but it's good enough. If there were more forms to choose the font, the color, the format of the window, the aspect of the text, I would be more satisfied. Another thing that I would like to have is a desktop application. It would be easier to use the tool, and easier for me to control my team, this way they have to use a browser, and that can be distracting for them. By having a desktop app, I would have more control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HappyFox Chat:

It's easy to use, and they are also programming a lot of new implementations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

To have a cheap and simple chat application and access all my records and chats. If you need a tool that can solve your common user relationship problems, Happy Fox is the tool. Using the tool is a no-brainer and even your most limited staff member can do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use and Very Versatile"

5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

Our team found it very easy to use. The learning curve was easy and the design is very intuitive. We also loved the ease of branding different websites and the ability to see other agents chatting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

Nothing really, maybe more sound notification options to choose from to alert when a chat is initiated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HappyFox Chat:

If you have a question, their customer support at HappyFox Chat is really good. We also use the HappyFox ticket and knowledgebase system, which integrate really well with the chat. Another tip is if you want to bring in your HappyFox chat leads to a CRM program, Zapier can help. We use it to put HappyFox Chat leads into Ontraport automatically - our emailing and CRM system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easily brands two different websites without having to go through a bunch of complicated code. We love that one person can handle the chats on both sites when needed because they all come into a central place. It's also cool that you can see another agent chatting and then offer them a helpful answer offline if you see they need it. Customers find it easy to use as well.

"Very efficient and useful"

4.5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

I can speak to customers just as I can on the phone. I can transfer a chat using command features and I can even save time by using set canned responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

Customers can stay idle for a while and I think a notification system for the customer would be good, just to let them know sometimes we are waiting on their response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering HappyFox Chat:

I would recommend using foxchat especially if you have a large customer base where you have to cater for many. Especially if you have customers which prefer not to speak on the phone for whatever reason they may have. Some prefer the fact that they do not have to speak a single word to get the same service, especially in today's era where we live in a social environment where texting is very predominant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

It saves time for us and the customer as they do not have to phone in to receive the same service with the long waiting times during busy periods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HappyFox Chat is a clean, easy-to-use chat system"

4/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

The ability to keep track of chats with customers, as well as the text of those chats. Additionally, the ability to see how many individuals are waiting, and to summarize our chat activity over a period of time is very useful. Lastly, we like the ability to predefine responses, both automatic replies and ones that our users can load up and send without spending the time to type them out more than once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

There doesn't seem to be a way to set hours of operation such that the customer receives a different Away message when our office is closed versus when all operators are busy or no one is signed in. Also, it would be nice to be able to let supervisors assign inbound chats to specific users, or join chats in progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HappyFox Chat solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are allowing our customers another means of getting in touch with us, one that is more convenient for a segment of our customer base which is either too busy or not comfortable with calling us or visiting in person. HappyFox Chat gives us the ability to answer questions and solve problems for our customers in a way that they are comfortable with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Retention rates goes up"

4.5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

I have been using this app on all my websites. One account is enough. The app works great and one of the most useful features is the chat trigger. Also the iPhone app helps a lot. If you're not in front of your computer you can easily answer customers requests! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

The Mac app bug, but it was fixed since then Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use and effective!"

5/5

What do you like best about HappyFox Chat?

I love how easy this chat solution is to implement on my website, and how quickly my colleagues were able to pick it up! It makes answering quick questions from our customers so simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HappyFox Chat?

The only thing I would like to have added is the ability to style the triggered chats differently. There is a CSS solution, but I have yet to figure out how to implement that just yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
