User Testimonials
Rakuten ViberTelonium
Likelihood to Recommend
It's perfect for messaging and group messaging, especially when users in group are from different places, organizations... (unlike slack where you have to be member of same organization to be in same group). The video calls are the weak point of the app, so Viber is not good for conference calls, video calls and especially for group video conference calls.

Our clients are more satisfied since we have been using this program and our workers and customer service agents are also more than pleased with the use of this software, so I give it my 100% recommendation. I have noticed that in the time of use, there are more advantages than disadvantages of using it.

Cons
  • As far as I can tell, Viber lacks the feature to block specific callers/numbers. I've never needed to do this, but I'd like to know I have the option.
  • Viber cannot be used without wifi, so it is not possible to connect with contacts who aren't also using Viber. (Unless you want to use the paid service.)
  • This isn't a major complaint, but I find the layout of Viber to be a little cluttered. Comparing it to WhatsApp, I don't find it to be quite as user-friendly, and I sometimes stumble around to find my way to a contact to call.

  • We use the call recording tool, but we can't hear the call very well to be able to clearly understand the conversation, we have already made a report to the technical service.
  • It is a fairly easy-to-use software, but it has functions that clutter the screen and we see that we have not needed them yet.
  • Sometimes it does not have very good synchronization with some channels such as Gmail.

Support Rating
I have not frequently used the support for Viber as I have not had many problems with it on my phone. I did use support one time for problems with the computer application and used the forums to solve my problems. They were fairly easy to follow and I appreciated the online help in that format.

Alternatives Considered
Rakuten Viber is overall the best. Hands down!!! Even though the other products have their own use and they are well functioning in the market, but Rakuten Viber is still top notch!

Return on Investment
  • Rakuten Viber allows me to delete any type of message I've sent
  • Rakuten Viber can't access or read my private conversations in the first place, Viber can't sell them.
  • Hidden Chats allows me to keep whatever chats I want away from my main chat list, so they don't show up in my main chat list. Only a PIN that I set gives me access to Hidden Chats.
