NEW YORK, NY–LivePerson, Inc., the application service provider (ASP) that facilitates live customer service through the HumanClick product line, has registered its 1,000 paying customer since January 2001.
The array of HumanClick products provides solutions for small- and mid-market Web-based companies, and enables them to monitor site traffic flow and to communicate with visitors via text-based chat.

Obtaining one thousand paying customers is an important milestone in proving the success of the HumanClick acquisition.”
