Gosquared versus Freshchat

Started in 2006, the British GoSquared defines itself as a provider of growth software for subscription businesses. Their services consist of customer engagement, live chat, and web analytics.

GoSquared live chat has integrations with platforms like WordPress, Zapier, and Zendesk. It offers the possibility to import customer data from a.o. Intercom and Salesforce. The number of available features for live chat is relatively limited.
