Why use WhatsApp for Live Chat Support?
WhatsApp has the most active monthly users than any other messaging platform, making it one of the most accessible channels for your support team to communicate with your users and fulfill immediate needs.
Because of this, it’s a fantastic channel to track key support metrics, including:
- Average response time: The average time it takes for one of your support agents to get back to a customer
- Average resolution time: The average time it takes for a customer’s issue to be resolved
- Number of open chats: The number of chats awaiting to be resolved
- Chat to conversion rate: The total number of visitors converted out of the total number of visitors your support agents have chatted with

How to Measure WhatsApp Live Chat Performance
Measuring metrics in Whatsapp itself is limited. The WhatsApp Business App only offers stats on messages sent, delivered, read, and received. To get more metrics from your WhatsApp channel, you need to connect with an API or a Product Success Platform (PSP) like FROGED.
FROGED’s PSP offers an all-in-one support metrics solution that manages your Whatsapp messages to and from users while also tracking your support team’s performance through vital metrics. Let’s take a look in more detail at exactly what benefits you get from FROGED’s WhatsApp integration.
Main benefits of the FROGED WhatsApp Integration
1. Track Metrics
Through the FROGED WhatsApp integration, managers get a comprehensive overview of the performance of their support agents all in one place. You can access a wider range of metrics than WhatsApp currently offers, including:
- Number of new conversations
- Number of active conversations
- Average first response time
- Average resolution time
- Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT)
With this data, you have everything you need to effectively monitor both your support team and your processes and identify areas that need improvement or more investment.
2. Speech Analytics
FROGED uses speech analytics so you can track keywords and monitor your WhatsApp conversations. You can pre-define the keywords you want to track, and FROGED will identify and record these words in a spreadsheet for your analysis.
You can use this feature in a variety of ways. Here are some examples:
- Get insights into the proportion of positive experiences your customers have by monitoring positive or negative key phrases
- Identify the product features that encounter the most issues by tracking the number of times customers use the feature name in conversations
- Use specific words as triggers so that your support team can send specific help articles or other resources to help the user
3. Multi-channel and Multi-agent
You can integrate WhatsApp, along with other communication channels, all with FROGED, to create a centralized robust system that all of your support agents can access at the same time and easily manage.
Not only is this a very convenient solution where your support team has access to all communication channels in one place, but it means that there is a much lower risk of any messages getting lost or forgotten.
4. Reach out first
Usually, through Whatsapp, businesses can only get in touch with customers first if they already have them as a contact. With FROGED, you only need to have your customer’s number in order to reach out first, so you can practice proactive customer support and reduce that crucial resolution time.
5. Route your Chats
FROGED’s automatic routing means that customers’ messages are always assigned to the most appropriate department. You can group messages according to a specific group (sales, admin, or customer support) and even to specific functions (product features, pricing options, etc.).
This automated feature ensures that customers’ queries are immediately in the right hands, offering a personalized approach to optimize every customer’s experience.
6. Speed up Customer Service
As mentioned above, each and every one of your support agents can access the FROGED platform and communicate with customers all at the same time. As a result, you can hugely reduce your average response time and make your support process more efficient.
