Right - there are two chats at the moment: Agent to agent chat in the back end, where you install a chat server and it allows agents to chat with each other and include that chat in the ticket. There is no charge for this
BMC Chat/my-eService allows the automated answers as well as end user to agent chat; answers can come from the eService database and from RKM; users can also see their incidents and any major outage messages. On the backend, the agent has a chat console they are working in; chats can be monitored; you can pre-build standard Q&As to help the agents respond to users quickly and with standard language; when done, chats create incidents. All built on AR system. It does cost extra; not every organization will adopt it; but for those who are looking for something like this, it's a pretty sweet product. There's even the ability to translate the conversation in the chat window, if I remember right. Check it out; I haven't tried installing it myself yet, but do keep putting in support tickets and whatnot as you run into snags so we can anything unclear fixed up!
