Try the full customer journey
Start a website chat, follow up by email, then handle a configured call. Check what the next agent can see and whether they know what was promised.
Message.com vs LiveChat
Go from a chat tool to a connected support day.
LiveChat focuses on customer conversations and agent tools. Message puts website chat beside email and configured calls so the next channel does not mean starting over.
Start with the work.
Then compare the bill.
Choose the right configuration on both sides. Channel access, AI and usage charges can change the total.

A few useful answers.
Will all of my LiveChat configuration transfer?
No migration should be assumed to transfer every setting. Supported records depend on the source. Review automations, custom fields, permissions, attachments and channel configuration separately. The migration guide explains the available path.
Does Message include unlimited human agents?
Self-serve Inbox plans include five human support agents. Each additional human support agent costs $5/month. Additional AI task agents are a separate product charge.
Can I test before moving my live traffic?
Yes. Use the trial to test your widget, knowledge, replies and imported history. Keep the existing service running while you review the import and decide when to switch.
