What is LiveChat?

LiveChat is a dedicated live chat and customer messaging product for websites, priced per agent per month.

Plans are differentiated mainly by tracked-visitor limits, chat history retention, reporting depth and widget customisation.

Text is sold as a separate product line starting at $19 per user/month.

What works well

  • +24/7/365 support is included from the entry plan, which is rare at $19/agent.
  • +Both annual and monthly prices are published for every self-serve tier, so the annual saving is transparent.
  • +Team and above include unlimited users and unlimited chat history.
  • +Business adds genuine workforce-management tooling (work scheduler, staffing prediction) rather than just more seats.

What to watch out for

  • No free plan — only a 14-day trial.
  • Visitor tracking limits (100/400/1,000) can force an upgrade on traffic rather than team size.
  • SSO and HIPAA are locked behind custom-priced Enterprise.
  • It is a chat product first; a full ticketing suite means adding the separately priced Text product or other tools.

Best suited for: Sales and support teams whose primary channel is website live chat · Teams that want proactive chat campaigns and visitor tracking · Businesses that value round-the-clock vendor support at a low entry price
