NEW YORK, Nov. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- LivePerson, Inc. (Nasdaq: LPSN), a leading provider of conversational commerce solutions, has become the first conversational commerce platform to integrate with Datto's Autotask PSA, the business management platform and ticketing software used by thousands of IT solution providers and their customers.

"The new integration between Datto Autotask PSA and LivePerson provides a solution provider's customers with an easy and accessible way to reach them," said Joe Rourke, director of product management, Autotask PSA at Datto. "At Datto, we're thrilled to continue to work with leading technology partners like LivePerson to capitalize on Autotask PSA and its open platform, and we're confident Datto and LivePerson customers will see an immediate efficiency increase with this integration."

Solution providers that leverage Datto's Autotask PSA (Professional Services Automation) now have easy access to LivePerson's conversational commerce platform, LiveEngage, to manage conversations and quickly answer customer inquiries. The businesses that solution providers serve will now be able to use popular messaging channels such as SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and voice assistants, among other channels, to communicate with their IT solution provider to get answers and resolve issues more conveniently than ever.

LivePerson's conversational commerce platform is powered by artificial intelligence that enables businesses to deliver conversational experiences to their customers at scale. With the use of bots and automation, businesses can efficiently manage and analyze conversations, allowing them to learn from their customers and deliver a more personalized and scalable customer experience.

"We think this new conversational experience will be eye-opening for the businesses that Autotask solution providers serve. Through their own first-hand experience with messaging, they will realize the need to offer the same LivePerson services to connect and engage with their own customers. And since solution providers already own this relationship, they can capitalize on selling and delivering these solutions through LivePerson's partner program," says Andy Lezon, LivePerson's senior director of Channel Sales and Partner Programs.

Current Autotask PSA users interested in LiveEngage should email autotask@liveperson.com.
