Web messaging overview

Web messaging provides customers with an enhanced experience when they visit your website. Unlike web chat, which provides instant; standalone; and real-time chat conversations, web messaging allows a customer to start a more persistent conversation on your website. Customers can converse with an agent or a bot and return later to pick up the conversation. Managers, supervisors, and agents can view the entire customer journey data attached to the web messaging interaction.

Web messaging is available to Genesys Cloud customers only. It shares the same features and capabilities as the other Genesys Cloud messaging channels that use ACD messaging to allow agents to respond to customer interactions.

For more information, see About web messaging in the Genesys Cloud Resource Center.
