Cons

On reviewing customer feedback on ClickDesk, we found comments from some people who demanded that the avatar offered on this software should be more professional-looking. Some people reported that they were still shown online when they changed their status to busy or away, and the refreshing of the page was required.

ClickDesk vs. Zopim

Zopim is also a cloud-based software for live chats on a website like ClickDesk. In 2014, this software was developed by Zendesk, and now it is known as Zendesk chat. It’s the pricing per agent starts from $19 to $215per month, depending on the choice and need of your plan. Some users reported that support on Zendesk is not offered for free and is expensive for start-ups and freelancers.

However, Zendesk is an award-winning software; however, customer reviews are a reliable source to know how it performed for users. ClickDesk and Zendesk are much-compared software being residing in the same category. ClickDesk has advanced team feature tools like file filtering, conference chat which is not supported in Zopim. Zopim or Zendesk offers some matrices which need to be explored first, and it does not offer much customization on its interface. With Zophim, you do not have network monitoring options available.

Takeaways

Between a bulk of live chat and support software provided out there, ClickDesk is an all one solution cloud-based solution in a single software. It also allows integration with other software, which means multiplying and expediting your business processes and eventually the revenues.
