We recently began offering chat support via Bomgar.  We have not yet begun =
advertising this option to any great degree, so have less than a dozen chat=
s a week at this time.  At this time, chat support is provided by full time=
 consulting staff, who are also handling email support contacts, so there a=
ren't any telephone interruptions.  We currently only provide the chat opti=
on during normal business hours when full time staff are scheduled (student=
s cover evening hrs).  One of my staff did some coding of the page, so that=
 the chat option is not available during other times, so people don't get s=
tuck waiting for someone to respond when no one is there. (https://help.nd.=
edu/)

It is not currently integrated with our incident tool for automatic logging=
, but our standard procedure is to copy and paste the chat text into an inc=
ident when the session ends.  It was a pleasant surprise to all that my sta=
ff love chat, particularly since we can quickly activate a remote control s=
ession via Bomgar to expedite resolving an issue.
