Live Chat: Increase your students’ satisfaction
Consumers who use live chat for service and support, talk it up as one of the most satisfying support channels available today. Stats from a recent Zendesk Customer Service Benchmark report show live chat out in front in terms of customer satisfaction levels with 92% of consumers saying they were happy with their live chat experience. In comparison, voice came in at 88% and email had a 85% satisfaction rate.
Customers are gravitating more towards live chat as their preferred channel. Organizations who use live chat move customer requests away from web forms and feedback tabs to real-time chat, where questions can be answered directly in the web or mobile experience.
