### "Great software, but can be even better with a good mobile app." — 4.0/5

> **Mike** | *December 30, 2025* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google chat is incredibly responsive and convenient. It is included in GSuite so relatively affordable compared to slack. The interface on the web is extremely polished and efficient. Learning curve is low, and feature is extensive. There are tons of integration that works with gmail and gcal.
> 
> **Cons**: I think the customer service of Google can be improved. It is hard to reach a human agent and often times tickets for bugs gets bounced to completely different departments. I also think the mobile app can be improved. The images are downsampled in such a fashion that it's barely readable.
> 
> Overall I'd say gchat is solid. With good integration with google meet and calendar, it is a solid choice for business customers.

### "A fine tool for collaborating" — 5.0/5

> **Bradley** | *October 11, 2025* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I work with organisations that make use of the Google Suite of tools, and therefore make use of google chat to work with them for instant messaging. Google Chat works great. It’s simple to use for messaging and video calls, provided a web based interface that’s useful when you’re not using the desktop or&#10;Mobile app, and functions flawlessly. It’s free, so value is exceptional. Notifications work well, document sharing works well, and whilst it wouldn’t be my first choice over MS Teams, it doesn’t come with any major issues or reasons not to use it.
> 
> **Cons**: Two things: 1) I dislike the “quote in new thread feature”. I see why others may find it useful, but it’s not for me. 2) in the full interface it feels clumsy when you want to start a new chat with a new person. Just GUI refinement required.
> 
> I use Google chat daily and have no issues with it. I wouldn’t personally choose it over Teams, but where clients use it, it causes no trouble and I enjoy working within it.

> 
> **Pros**: Google Chat offers a wide array of customization options and allocates an extended range of features including; messaging, live chat and audio conferencing.
> 
> **Cons**: I have not had any bad experience when utilizing Google Chat to enhance both internal and external communication in my organization.
