Chat360's Live Chat unifies conversations from WhatsApp, Web, Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, Twitter, SMS, and Google Business Messages into one real-time dashboard. Support teams can monitor and respond to all incoming traffic without switching platforms.

Chat Room Sections

Incoming chats are organized by status:

Status

Description

Unassigned

Active bot-driven or user-initiated conversations awaiting agent assignment.

Assigned

Chats taken over by a specific agent for one-on-one handling.

Archived

Completed or inactive threads retained for audit and reference.


Unassigned Section Features

Even while the bot is interacting, an Admin can step in at any moment:

  • Enter Chat — Jump into a live conversation to take control.

  • AI Tone & Translation — Automatically adjust message tone (e.g., friendly, formal) and translate into the user's chosen language.

  • Create Ticket — Spin up a support ticket with prefilled issue details.

  • Attachments & Quick Replies — Share images, documents, emojis, or send templated responses in one click.

  • Sticker Support — Liven up the exchange with chat stickers.

Activity Status

The Activity Status section offers robust monitoring by separating two key areas: visitor/bot/live chat activity and agent session time logs. This enhances tracking and operational transparency in Live Chat platforms.


Live Chat Overview

Visitor, Bot & Live Chat Activity

This part of the Activity Status feature meticulously records all interactions:

  • Keeps a real-time log of actions taken by visitors, bots, and live chat sessions, including session start and completion statuses.

  • Enables easy date-wise filtering, so you can review chat activity for any desired period.

  • Supports clear chronological tracking of chat flow and user engagement across all sessions.

Live Chat Overview

Agent Session Time & Agent Logs

Agent logs provide administrators with detailed visibility into how agents interact with visitors during chats:

  • View both total session time and current active session time for each agent, on a per-visitor basis.

  • Track every agent who has interacted with a particular visitor, capturing the complete engagement timeline.

  • Monitor cumulative session duration from all participating agents, ensuring a full account of conversation handling.

This breakdown not only clarifies agent accountability but also significantly streamlines oversight, making it easier to identify bottlenecks and improve support processes.


Managing Chat Status

Once a query is handled, agents or managers can update the chat lifecycle:
