Overview
Back to topNote - You need to have Node js already installed on your server to use our Chat System extension. Also, if you are unable to configure Node js and Socket.io on Magento Cloud Edition then we will configure it on a separate server.
Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform, back-end, JavaScript runtime environment that executes JavaScript code outside a web browser. Node.js lets developers use JavaScript to write command-line tools and for server-side scripting—running scripts server-side to produce dynamic web page content before the page is sent to the user's web browser.
Chat System extension allows you to set up a live chat messaging feature on your web-store. With a chat system, the customer can communicate in real-time with the store owner or agent. The customer can use the chat system for receiving instant & quick answers to the questions. The admin can create different chat agents who can handle and reply to the customer queries from the store backend. Providing the customer to get all the answers to their queries and doubts instantly.
Business Value
Before purchasing products there are lots of queries and doubts that customers face before making up their minds to go for the product. It will be good if the website has a feature where the customer can directly ask the queries related to the product from the store agents helping them to make a purchase.
With the help of the chat system extension, the store owner can serve its customers better and faster. Because, instead of sending an email or creating a support ticket, the customer can now resolve the issue or pre-sale doubts by chatting with the store owner directly. The chat system allows the customer and store owner to send and receive messages on a real-time basis.
