Likelihood to Recommend	[Troop Messenger is the] best internal messaging application for businesses of all kinds. Collaboration goes super fast and quick with Troop Messenger. Be it instant messaging, audio-video calling, sharing screen contents, or video conferencing. Team members can seamlessly get along with each other for exchanging productive work conversations. Incentivized Ramya jamanjyothi Digital Marketing Analyst Read full review	If you have a website through which your clients engage (either sales or support) your offerings, then you absolutely need a live chat tool. Having used Zoho for a while now, I can absolutely recommend it. If you have not used a chat tool before but you have an online store then you should definitely explore this option. They offer a free trial so you can test it to see what response you get but for sales related websites, this will pay for itself. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Jointly code helps two or more developers work on the same code. They can share the same code editor for writing and editing.

Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	Cliq is essential software for our communication.

Cliq offers us that platform in an easy-to-use format that allows for both 1:1 and team communication occurring all at once. Marc Fishman Director of Sales & Marketing Read full review

Online Training	No answers on this topic	Excellent support. Online training and supporting videos, and resources are more than sufficient to get started.

For any complicated issue, they always get back by email with the solution and on occasions even call back. Incentivized Ganesh Subramanian Director Operations Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	Implementation is very simple and easy. Create a Zoho account (free or paid), send/ receive an invite, log in, verify your credentials and get started. Admin would have created the channels for you, and you start contributing. The entire process is smooth, and you can get started within minutes. The Admin has to work at the backend, initially, and decide on the permissions for the individual and the team and set up permissions for access to other applications too. This needs to be planned out, tested and implemented. Incentivized Ganesh Subramanian Director Operations Read full review

Return on Investment	Our team communication and collaboration is simplified with Troop Messenger.

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. Ishita Varma Software Tester Read full review	Positive - Easier Comms with specific Clients. Encouraging more to use it to engage with me Negative - Yet another comms channel to manage would like to have less.
