### "Office Chat is simple to use, and very fast.   I can have instant IM communication with 1 or many." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *16 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like being able to get instant information from anyone in my company.  This is especially useful with our technical team, because they usually get back to me immediately with an answer.  I also like it when multiple people are on the same chat, working in a colaborative way.
> 
> **Cons**: I sometimes get confused with what group chat I am in.  You may have several groups set up, and several people will be the same but not all.
> 
> Instant communication with anyone in my company.  I also am able to use it with my desktop computer as well as my iPhone.

### "Easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *17 April 2019* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to use and very helpful to communicate. It replaced a messenger that was free but discontinued. We are in a small office and it helps communicate with the other employees without having to discuss confidential matters out loud or get a point addressed without interrupting the other employee while they are with a client. It helps us be more productive.
> 
> **Cons**: We do not use all of the features, which is fine because we are a small office. We just wanted to keep communication and share information or documents with each other.
> 
> As of now, there are no issues. We just use to communicate with each other. If someone is with a client, this is a way to send a message right away and they'll get to it when time allows them.

Employees from different locations and offices can login to the same Office Chat account in order to facilitate cross-location collaboration or access for remote workers. Users can be added through Active Directory integration or imported in bulk, and no email address is required for signup. \n\nWith Office Chat, users can configure a custom message and file retention policy to control which data is archived or discarded, and security measures such as two factor authentication and end-to-end encryption ensure data is protected. All retained chats and files can be retrieved at any time using the extensive search functionality which crawls the entire chat history to find results.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/33af384d-4c32-4621-bcef-4f17b41ff0f6.png","url":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/112869/office-chat","@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/112869/office-chat#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/#organization"},"applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.5,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":232},"offers":{"price":"25","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/112869/office-chat#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Internal Communications Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/1267/internal-communications/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Office Chat","position":3,"item":"/software/112869/office-chat","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
