(NASDAQ: LPSN), a provider of technology facilitating real-time online customer interaction, today announced the availability of LivePerson Service Edition - Platinum Series, a fully integrated chat, email and knowledge base solution. LivePerson Platinum allows customer service teams to deliver superior customer service across all online channels through a single interface -- improving customer satisfaction and operator productivity.
