Smartsupp is a Live chat tool with advanced additional features. The software is available in several languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Danish, Hungarian, Czech, Russian, Dutch and Polish.
The app is aimed at helping companies to improve the customer assistance experience, with a focus on conversions and study of user behavior on our site (there are several interesting features that allow it, we will see them later).
Used by over 58,000 companies, Smartsupp can boast among its customers the likes of Microsoft and Skoda.
VISIT THE OFFICIAL SITESmartsupp is a very interesting and feature-rich software. Among its most useful features we certainly find the one for which it is mainly designed, namely the possibility of chatting in real time with the visitors of our site; the back-end is well done, user-friendly and complete: a notification will warn us if a new user starts a new conversation in the chat to which we must hurry to answer!
A really valuable feature is the one that allows us to record the screen viewed by users who visit our site. All this can make us understand many things, such as the ease of navigation between the pages of the website, how easy it is to follow the purchase process (complete an order) or perhaps it can show us any errors present, as can be a “404” page.
Up to now we have generally talked about “website”, but on which platforms can Smartsupp be installed?
The list is truly endless: Prestashop, Magento, WordPress, Opencart, Joomla and… so much more ! In the following image an overview of the possible integrations.
Part not to be underestimated: we could also use Smartsupp from our mobile devices (smartphones and tablets), so as to be able to participate in chats from anywhere, at any time. And if we (or our staff) are not available to respond to a new request in the chat, what can we do? In this case Smartsupp provides us with the possibility of being able to create and set up a series of automatic messages, which will allow the customer to interact with the chosen options, up to guiding him along the path we have devised (let us contact by mail or by phone, solve your problem directly or answer a specific question thanks to the FAQ).
Finally, but not in order of importance, it should be noted that the Smartsupp live chat software is customizable: in fact, you can customize the texts, colors, position and image of the chat, in order to make it as homogeneous as possible with the style and structure of our website.
All the actions listed above can be traced thanks to the help (and integration) of Google Analytics, and this is certainly an added value of no small importance!
Let’s start by saying that the software can also be used for free, and we are not talking about a free trial, but a real and totally free version, which for those who don’t have very high expectations it can be more than fine. Alternatively, however, if you want to take advantage of all the functions offered by the software, there are 3 other types of subscription, “Standard”, “Pro” and “Ultimate”, which can be activated both with monthly and annual billing; this last option allows you to have a 33% discount on the list price.
But let’s see what these subscription plans offer in detail (the prices taken into consideration are related to the annual billing):
The Standard and Pro plans give you the possibility to take advantage of 14 days free trial before purchasing the subscription.

For the rest it has all the features that other sector software also have, nothing more, nothing less, there is everything we need.
Helpful Review 1I think the price is quite good, I am convinced that quality must always be paid for!

Helpful ReviewThe main reason why I preferred it over other software like livechat or purechat is the great possibility of integrating it with other software. I also really appreciated the possibility of personalization offered and the fact of being able to record the screen to see how our customers behave is exceptional.
Fair price, ok assistance and more than intuitive interface.
My rating is 5 out of 5.

Helpful Review 1There is no better software to provide assistance to your customers / visitors without spending a fortune.
To praise the fact that the free version is also very usable at a professional level: I upgraded to the standard version for the possibility of personalizing the chat by giving it a branding identity like the ecommerce I own, for the chat history at 1 year and a bit to reward this beautiful software. 5 out of 5 stars
