About

Turn conversation into customer loyalty with Messenger. Messenger helps you simplify customer acquisition by providing a direct, conversational way for people to take action where they already spend their time. Building a presence on Messenger allows people to browse your products and services, and purchase them directly in the conversation. Building an experience on Messenger can help get your business, product or service in front of more people. Whether you’re launching a new product or driving awareness, conversation creates a meaningful connection with your business. Integrating Messenger into a customer service strategy allows customers to communicate with your business on their terms. No more waiting on hold or keeping website windows open. And the conversation stays in Messenger, an easily accessible spot for questions and re-engagement.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I really really love to use this messenger because you can communicate to your love ones. Super good and very nice. My family in the house really loves using this messenger.
  • Text, video or voice call from one interface. Group chat feature. Chat heads feature for pinning chat to mobile's home page. Great mobile app - available on all major OS. Audio/Video Recording feature. Lots of stickers and emojis.
  • (+) Easy to use and communicate with the help of the messenger. (+) The audio and video calling feature is really good. (+) Groups with a capacity of 250 can be set up. (+) Chatbot support is very good. (+) Stickers and gifs are supported.
  • I like that you can connect with almost anyone on Facebook through this app, and that it makes it easier by opening Facebook conversations in this separate app. I like that you can call people or video chat.
  • I'm a daily user of Facebook Messenger. I use this to keep up with friends and family and business associates. You can also send money super easily with Facebook Messenger.

Cons

  • What i don't like about this in messenger is if there's a bug.
  • Cannot attach or send files from mobile app. Too frequent updates use up lot of data bandwidth.
  • (-) Sometimes the messenger fails to alert the messages received. (-) The video quality in the calls is mostly good but sometimes it tends to drop. (-) One can always send a message on the Facebook app, it becomes redundant in such scenarios. (-) Takes a lot of battery.
  • It sometimes makes it hard to find messages that come from someone you are not connected with on the app, and only find them if you manually look.
  • Facebook Messenger has nothing I have found to dislike. Without Facebook I don't know what I'd do to keep in touch with family and friends.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I find WhatsApp to be a great and exciting platform to communicate with other users with an ease. Besides instant messaging, WhatsApp also allows me to create group, join communities, share multimedia files, share statuses, make and take both voice and video calls.
  • - It only takes your phone number and that's it. It doesn't ask any other details of the user to use this app. - It is very user-friendly and easy to use app with no ads and completely free to use. - User can delete the scent message which is a good feature that WhatsApp offers to the users. - it has brilliant audio and video calling features, which uses fewer data than its competitors.
  • I am very interested in this project so far . it has been very useful for communication and also granting high quality videos.
  • - WhatsApp is the most widely use application that gives you a platform to connect with your contacts. - All the chats on this platform are 128 bit end-to-end encrypted that gives the utmost security to its user privacy. - All the chats can be easily backed up on local storage as well as on google drive. It gives the user the flexibility to restore chats on a new device.
  • - Simple and user friendly application - Voice call and video call available - Instantly able to send a message to all over the world - Live-location sharing feature

Cons

  • WhatsApp is a good platform for all my instant communication needs and I have not came across any issues while using it.
  • - The data is stored in the servers, which is a security concern and is not full proof. - you cannot send a video file bigger than 61mb and a document having size bigger than 100 MB, which is one of the biggest cons of WhatsApp. - WhatsApp group accommodates fewer number of people whereas its competitors like telegram accommodates 1000x more people.
  • Sometimes during conversation or video calls the connection get interrupted but I think the is from the internet provider not the application.
  • The chats on WhatsApp are end to end encrypted, however, the backup datastore on google drive is not, So, the WhatsApp user data can be easily hacked if the google account gets hacked.
  • - Privacy policy issues - Media files up to 16mb only can be transferred - Need to share personal number in order to communicate
