Office Chat Reviews

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.

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.

When we did our research for a new officechat software, we were really impressed with the features that are available & the ease of use for the end users. Setting up the users is very simple & easy. Just needed to give the end users admin rights to install the software. Very easy to create groups & place people within. Reporting is really great & one is able to turn on & off features with a click on a button. The self destruct can be set with a timer which comes in handy when discussing private & confidential information.

When opening a ticket, waited for most times 24 hours to hear back from them. However, they do have the option to call in if required, however, since this is a virtual company, they prefer either chat or email

Thank you for your review Stephanie! We're happy to see that OfficeChat has been a good solution for your business. I hope that future support requests are handled more quickly, we appreciate your patience as you grow with us! Cheers

It's organized pretty obviously, with conversations with individuals labeled clearly and organized by recentness.

Every time I open my phone for any app, at least twice in ten minutes the app I am using will minimize as Office Chat opens. This is not in response to receiving a new message; it simply opens in the middle of literally anything else. Even if Office Chat is open as one of the other apps running in the background, it will minimize the other apps and impose itself for no apparent reason. Notably, I have an Android phone. The computer version has no such issues.

Office Chat is one of the easiest chat apps on the market. Not only is it very cost effective, but it was very easy for all our users to set up on their desktops. It also has a mobile feature which is great so you can message while you are away from your desk. I would highly recommend it!

Nothing- I don't have any negatives with using Office Chat!

I enjoy the ease of using Office Chat. I love how quick and uneventful it is to share files amongst coworkers.

Sometimes I will get a notification of an unread message and it is hard to find which one that is (in self-destruct mode).

Diana, thank you for taking the time to review us! We appreciate your business and are glad to see that Office Chat fits well into your workflow. We appreciate having you as a customer- thank you again!

It is so easy to use, and can be installed on a smart phone -- making it really easy and quick to reach co-workers, no matter where they are, without having to share or store personal cell phone numbers.

There aren't a lot of extra features and I get signed out by mistake fairly regularly (phone only).

Thank you for your review! We love to hear from our customers, and i'd urge you to reach out to us and let us know what features you wish we'd add! Also i'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with the app staying signed in, please contact our support and we'll find the culprit. Thank you again!

We all know how to text message. Office chat mimics this to make it easier to communicate within inter-office systems.

That each computer needs a separate email address associated with it. Therefore, you cannot have multiple office chat computers linked to one email account.

I can use the app on my phone to communicate with all team members back at the office. This expedites our projects and reduces delays.

Only that I didn't find it sooner! We tried multiple messaging apps before finding this solution.

Dawn, thank you for taking the time to review OfficeChat! We appreciate your feedback and satisfaction. That feedback is exactly what we like to hear! I'm glad that you eventually found us. Thank you!

It's easy to communicate with team members and very easy to use.

That you cannot customize the size of the chat window when you dock it to your computer screen.

MangoApps is great in order to stay connected and within reach at any time, easy to use on your PC/laptop or cell phone. It allows me to check who is available when issues arise in a very fast way and, in turn; I am available for any emergencies or planning.

We've only had one occasion were it was not working as expected but we reached out to the Online help and it was solved quickly and they were very polite. Other than this, I have no complaints on it.

Versatility! I can use on my smart phone, computer at home and computer at work... I can message my office staff directly without picking up the phone. Chat back and forth to maximize workflow - HIPAA compliant so don’t have to worry about safety of patient information. Group or single text is so easy. Able to snap photos and send documents! This is the best chat service I can think of. COMPLETELY impressed! And on top of all that is is SO AFFORDABLE. All my employees love it! Great job office chat!

I can’t think of anything I really “dislike.” I would suggest ability to invite people by using phone number/text message instead of requirement of email address. Ability to integrate a patient reminder service by text message would be cool too.

access across multiple platforms is useful.

Search engine customization and display of results process almost renders this option unusable (choice of msg queues, the way results are shown, more than a word and/or etc). We use it in big groups, as a chat room and whiteboard facility. We can have 10/20/40 msgs between we check a queue. When you open a particular chat queue, the screen jumps to last message instead of picking up from where left. It is troublesome to scroll all the way up, trying to remember ang guess which was the last msg the user read. Would be better if the screen / caht queue would open and show the last msg the user read and maybe mark or distinguish between read/unread messages (market / color etc)

Ability to communicate across the room or across country Ability to quickly easily share files Pop-up notification for new messages (this was VERY important to us) Ease of installation, setup, and implementation A very nice replacement of Yahoo Instant Messenger Instant notification of new messages We are a small office of 10 people. We had been using Yahoo Instant Messenger for years to quickly communicate across the office, when we didn't want to "yell" to one another :) But when YIM stopped functioning as we needed, we shopped around. OfficeChat does everything we need, and it's very reasonably priced. I highly recommend it. We had looked at several potentials, but NONE had measured up like this one.

We really have no cons to this product. It does everything we need. The only thing that could be better would be if it were free :) But really the pricing is extremely reasonable.

Stan, thank you for taking the time to review OfficeChat! We appreciate your feedback and satisfaction. I wish we could offer the product for free, but i'm happy to hear that you find our pricing to be reasonable. Cheers!

Office chat gives you the facility to be in constant communication with your colleagues in the same network. Offer some modern tools as the GIF and emojis, also allow to send files.

Tends to freeze constantly when you receive a big file.

Hi Daniel, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and provide feedback! I'm glad to hear that Office Chat is meeting your needs and fits well into your daily work life. I will be sure to pass along the feedback in regards to the freezing. If you don't mind, please reach out to our support team, i'd like to see if this is something we can easily address. https://officechat.com/office-chat-contact-us

We are able to talk to our other location without having to pick up the phone every time. We can send a message and they can respond when they are not busy. You can set up many users and we find it very useful. We use it everyday and a lot. It is so easy to set up and use.

Not being able to use it when the internet is down! LOL

Lisa, thank you for taking the time to review us! We appreciate your business, and are glad to see that Office Chat fits well into your work flow. Thank you again!

The app is very reliable and offers great futures.

The only thing I wish it had is to change your status example - away, out to lunch, busy, do not disturb and etc... and let the user know when you are away when they send you a message.

Ralph, thank you for taking the time to review us! We appreciate your business, and are glad to see that Office Chat fits well into your work flow. I will be sure to pass along the feedback regarding status options. Thank you again!

Customer friendly and easy to use, find it friendly and interesting. Glad my company has selected office chat

can't think of anything that I find to dislike about this way of communicating - easy to use and I use it daily to communicate with co-workers

Linda, thank you for taking the time to review OfficeChat! We appreciate your feedback and satisfaction. I'm glad to hear that is has been easy to use and without issues. Cheers!

I like that in our office we can easily send messages to the whole office or just one employee, without having to get up and walk to the office or bother anyone while they are working. We can all easily send messages and even cute gifs and emoji for phone messages and reminder notes. We can send messages about clients waiting for appointments when the person's line is busy and we can't call them to let them know. It's a great program to use and easy to learn in minutes.

No cons were added to this review

Jeanie, thank you for your review of Office Chat! We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad to have you as a customer. Cheers!

The ease of deployment was the best feature. The administrative console was user friendly, and easy to navigate

The group function limitations. That you could not create a group to message to, unless the person is a member of that group. For us, the ability to message all the nurses from the frontdesk would be valuable, without the frontdesk having to see all the traffic between the nurses

The most valuable piece to me about this software is the ability to share files. This is so quick and easy to do.

My least favorite piece about this software is sending files. If you hold the file over the chat box it will continue to duplicate until you drop it. That is a little frustrating.

Amanda, thank you for taking the time to review OfficeChat! We appreciate your feedback and satisfaction. It appears that your issue has been addressed and resolved, but please let us know if otherwise. Thank you again!

This is best use for office chatting, and file sharing for internally usage.

Very Costly then other software, all features used with paid.

I like the fact that you talk to each individual in the office privately or you can set up a group message to talk to everyone.

The thing I like the least is that when the program opens when I start my computer, it just stays open on my screen. I would like it a bit better if it would just open in the background and stay open back there until I need to send or I receive a message.

Brandon, thank you for taking the time to review OfficeChat! We appreciate your feedback and satisfaction. I will be sure to pass your feedback along. Cheers!

We looked for a system that allowed us to set up user "groups" to keep communications to only certain groups. We also have regulations in our industry to keep certain conversations confidential from other staff. Office chat was the perfect fit for us!

Price is a bit high in my opinion, but value makes up for it. I will always pay more when the benefits offered by the product far exceed the price and office chat does just that!

I like the convenience and acceptability, if i am out sick and still need to be in contact with coworkers, having office chat at home helps me stay connected

Takes a little long to load as well as opening a chat window and on some computers slows down a bit

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and provide feedback John! I'm glad to hear that Office Chat is meeting your needs and expectations. I will be sure to pass along the feedback regarding load times. Cheers!
