About Messaging products
Messaging products handle real-time conversations between people or teams.
Messaging tools carry conversations in real time, and often the notifications around them. Delivery reliability and notification control matter more than extra features.
How to choose Messaging products
- Check notification granularity so the tool does not take over attention.
- Confirm search and history retention.
- Look at how it interoperates with the channels people already use.
Frequently asked questions
History and network effects. Check export options and how many of your contacts would have to move with you.
Check what is encrypted and who holds the keys. Some tools encrypt messages but retain metadata and backups.
