Kommunicate product updates march 2019

The financial year is over and I get that you were busy in closing your year-end work but the grind continues.

Meanwhile, here at Kommunicate, our product and engineering teams were working in bettering Kommunicate for the new financial year and the years to come after that.

Read along to know more about new features, improvements and bug-fixes in Kommunicate.

For previous version of Kommunicate Product Updates, head here.

Web App

‘Close’ conversation is now ‘Resolve’

We have changed the nomenclature slightly to accommodate a more standard and globally recognized term. To clarify, ‘Close’ a conversation will now be ‘Resolve’ a conversation.

Resolve conversation on a click

We have taken out the ‘Resolve’ button out of conversation state drop down so that you can resolve the conversation on a click of the button.

Moreover, it makes your life simpler by reducing the friction to achieve your goals in customer support- resolving conversations.

New state for Spam and Duplicate conversations

We have merged Spam and Duplicate conversation state into one and it named Spam/Irrelevant. All the conversations previously marked Spam and Duplicate will be found in this category.

You can mark the conversation Spam/Irrelevant from the menu just beside the ‘Resolve’ button.

Delete conversations from Kommunicate

You can now delete conversations from Kommunicate Dashboard. Open the menu just beside the ‘Resolve’ button. Click ‘Delete Conversation’ to delete that particular conversation from Kommunicate.

Improvement in message search

We have improved the message search in the conversation section. Now you can search the message content along with email IDs, name, et cetera.

Helpdocs integration to be discontinued soon

We will be stopping support for Helpdocs integration soon to bring more relevant integrations for you. We request you to migrate your FAQs to Kommunicate if you are using the Helpdocs integration.

However, you can use Kommunicate’s FAQ section to store your FAQs.

In addition to this, we are releasing Helpcenter by Kommunicate, a knowledge-base recommendation software. Get in touch with us to try out the beta.
