Handling a large number of WhatsApp chats can feel messy when everything goes to one number. Sometimes customers wait too long because one person gets all the load, while other team members sit free. WApp Chat has solved this with the Multiagent feature. You can now distribute chats across different team members in a smart way. This feature makes sure every customer gets connected to an available agent quickly, without confusion.
I once saw a small e-commerce business in Cuttack struggle with customer queries. They had one WhatsApp number for support. Customers had to wait hours because only one person replied. After moving to Multiagent in WApp Chat, queries were divided among three agents. Customers got faster replies, and the business looked more professional.
What is the Multiagent System? #

The Multiagent system in WApp.Chat Pro lets you create agent groups and distribute chats automatically among them. It works using intelligent assignment, balancing load, checking availability, and making sure distribution is fair. Customers don't need to know which agent they are contacting, the system handles everything in the background.

Creating a Multiagent Group – Step by Step #

You can try this first and see how smooth it feels:
- Login to Dashboard
- Enter a Group Name like "Customer Support Team" and add description like "Handles queries and orders."

Now, add the agent to the group:
- Enter Agent Name and Phone Number.
- Set Priority (1–10) if some agents should get chats first.
- Add Max Daily Chats to prevent overload.
- Define Start and End Time with timezone.

Imagine a company selling electronics online:

Now, when a customer sends a query, Walinks automatically assigns it to the right available agent based on load and expertise.
