Chat Statistics Update – June 27, 2025

Update Summary

  • Analytics View statistics by chat case type

  • AI ALF Quick Publish release

Chats that are reopened from a snoozed or closed state will now be recorded as new cases, without overwriting existing data. This new case-based chat statistic helps you better distinguish chat flows and enables more accurate data analysis. Don’t worry — your existing chat statistics will remain unchanged.

Key Differences Between Existing Chat Statistics and Case-Based Statistics

③ How agent and team are displayed

Assignee (team) ID and agent (team) name are listed on separate sheets, which can be inconvenient

Use Case #1: Analyze Reopened Chats as Separate Cases

Reopened chats are saved as new cases, allowing you to clearly analyze each stage of how customer issues are resolved. Tags are also recorded for each case, making it easy to track when issues occurred and how chat topics have changed over time.

Use Case #2: View Stats with Minimal Data Processing

With case-based chat statistics, you can download only the data you need, saving you the hassle of deleting unnecessary columns. Agent IDs and names are displayed together on a single sheet, so you can review the data without any extra processing.

Project Lead's Commentary

Hi, I’m Tigger, a software engineer at Channel Talk!

We’ve received a lot of valuable feedback on our statistics features, and we’re excited to take the first step toward improvements. This update focuses on solving one of the biggest pain points you’ve shared. The most important change is that chats are now tracked by case, so you can collect consistent data for each chat session. This will help you analyze your stats more accurately and meaningfully.

We’ve also added the ability to download Excel files from the Operations page with your filters applied — you can export exactly what you see on your screen.

This is just the beginning of our journey to improve the statistics features, and we’re committed to building an even better data analysis experience for you!
