“This software is great to talk to a friend, or a team of coworkers, making voice, text and image sharing simple and fast.”

Samuel R.

“Also allows for text messages.”

Nikki O.

Team Lead

Pros

“Features like creating large groups, sharing documents, and the Web/Desktop version make it an excellent tool for quick team coordination and daily personal check-ins.”

Ravindra S.

Owner

“WhatsApp is a reliable everyday platform to connect with family, friends or colleagues by providing the features like messaging, voice notes, audio and video calls, group calls, sharing and receiving photos and videos.”

Prachi D.

Administrative

“instant communication that's familiar to most of my customers, WhatsApp Business with built-in product catalog, free calls and messages worldwide, handy status updates for informal marketing.”

Nicole T.

Event Marketing and Operations

Cons

“If you have no internet or cell phone signal, you are dead.”

RICARDO S.

Sales Representative

“Not being able to add addresses inside the zello map to get ETAs, instead you have to jump over to google maps”

Anthony M.

Director

“In some of our territory locations, cell phone signal is very low.”

Lisa S.

Manager

Cons

“You can't sort conversations by order status or tag them as paid versus pending, so I end up scrolling back through dozens of chats to find that one customer who wanted logo placement adjusted.”

Ana N.

Founder

“because WhatsApp heavily compresses shared photos and videos, we cannot use the platform to send high-quality media assets for final technical approval.”

Jessee G.

Director of Media

“Although I understand from a privacy and security perspective that logging into multiple devices can jeopardise that set-up, but once a device has been set as trusted, if I were to lose my phone, being unable to access WhatsApp on my computer is frustrating.”
