Operations Managers
You're reviewing support chat volume reports every week but your tracking sheets only update when someone manually exports chat logs, so the metrics you're optimising against are always outdated — with this integration, every new chat lands in your system instantly and your data stays current.
Live Chat Support Leads
Visitors are entering high-priority queues and waiting for customized visual assets to be built by hand, but your team finds out about escalations too late — automating both apps means every queue entry generates a Switchboard graphic instantly and alerts your agents without delay.
🤝
Client Success Managers
You answer to key accounts who want to see visual proof of support resolutions and session graphics, but compiling these assets manually takes hours — this integration means every ended chat automatically creates a branded Switchboard image to share with your clients.
📊
Support Supervisors
The daily volume of live visitor conversations is too high for anyone to keep up with graphic creation by hand, leading to missing documentation — connecting these apps means every chat event generates its required template graphic without manual intervention.
🔄
Design Coordinators
You own the template asset creation step and depend on support agents upstream to hand over chat details before you can generate custom canvas graphics — automating both apps means Switchboard builds the images the moment Live Chat receives a visitor event.
🗂️
Support Quality Auditors
You need a reliable audit trail of all visitor interactions paired with visual session records, but keep finding gaps where manual exports were missed — this integration means every chat and generated graphic is logged accurately every single time.
