  • Integration W/ Live Chat Box On Website
    I agree with others in this thread that app-based is probably the way to go - especially if you're just building for one person. Just be sure she enables push notifications with the same settings as SMS. Others have mentioned Frontline (FYI: this product is end-of-sale), Crisp, and SpokePhone. I would also add Front as a potential app to check out as they have similar functionality. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago

    I'm thinking that all these other apps might be facilitated in Mattermost.

    Front[1] is for customer-facing teams but functions roughly like this. Teams collaborate on a shared inbox but Rules can route emails so they only show up in one individual’s inbox. With this setup, everyone else can still text or tag search and find the email but it’s only in the inbox of the person it is assigned to. If you are the lead for a given project then you’ll receive the client emails in your inbox but... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
