Google Keep vs. Troop Messenger

Being able to add a note on the fly to a "to-do" list or add a needed item to a "grocery" list with ease. It's handy being able to access it from practically anywhere. I often find myself needing to do a task and pulling out my phone to add it to my to-do list.

• It's incredibly quick to load, it doesn't take long to pull up any note you have no matter how much information is in the note.
• The ability to collaborate on a Google Keep note is also great! It allows for two or more of you to work on a project in one space.
• I also love that I can color coordinate. I can make all my meeting notes one color, my personal notes another color and so on.
• Enjoying the pinning feature that allows me to keep my important notes right at the top so I don't have to go searching for them when needed.

• Jointly code helps two or more developers work on the same code. They can share the same code editor for writing and editing.
• Any participant of the group call can add more participants to the ongoing group call.
• Integrations that enable users to work on the apps within Troop Messenger.
• Search filters help you find groups, text files, images, videos, and more in just one go.

• The iOS app sometimes gets into a state and doesn't update your notes (won't show new notes from other devices / computer), needs to be re-installed to resolve
• Your notes take up space in your Google account's quota, though this is not very apparent at first - you have to keep an eye on what you are storing - huge pictures better not go in there

• To my knowledge, Troop Messenger is already a complete tool, so there is no feature that is required to be improved.

It does everything I need it to do. It is easy to organize and categorize what I need and what I want to see.

Google Keep is very easy to use. Currently, the company I work for has employees from different age brackets, and this is one of the easiest apps on G-Suite to explain. Not a lot of people use it, but it is due to personal choice since a lot of people still prefer pen and paper to keep their notes.

I gave this rating based on the ease of use, the simple functionality and how well it does at keeping my attention and helping me continue to use it and stay on track. The functionality mentioned before alongside the reminder functions and how it utilizes Google's powerful machine learning tech to better its software is remarkable.

I used to use Evernote before Google Keep, it is an excellent product too but I found it too heavy. At the time (not sure about now) it always wanted to download all your notes onto your device before you can start using it. Google Keep is more a cloud product, so it's lighter on your device, it doesn't download every note you have at once. Also I tended to store a lot of heavy things in Evernote because it seemed to encourage me to do that, like large photos and documents. Google Keep encourages me to focus on text only mostly, though it will take a photo as part of the note as well. I also like Google Keep because it is a part of my Google Account and integrates with other Google products.

We are happy using the application and have no complaints about it. It made our daily team communication and collaboration simple and seamless. The best part is its file deck module, where it lets us view all the files that were shared across Troop Messenger in one place, also waiting for Troop Messenger's new features.

• Quick note-taking and easy access to reminders reduce time wasted on forgotten tasks, improving efficiency.
• Digital note-taking reduces the need for notebooks, sticky notes, and printed task lists.
• Employees sometimes need to move notes to Google Docs for better formatting, leading to extra work.

• Our team communication and collaboration is simplified with Troop Messenger. Now that we don’t feel the need to use e-mail for checking our work requirements and updates, we check all of them in Troop Messenger and get on to work. We are able to bring non-employees, such as our customers and clients, into it to exchange business conversations. We don’t feel any negative impacts with it.
