Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Google chat has been a great tool for efficient communications with my team members because it features mobile and desktop apps. It is helpful to have channels of conversation between 2 or more people on the same project, as well as video calling through Google meets that's integrated directly into Google Chat - this option adds states such as when you're in meetings or busy. Google chat is a great tool for adding attachment files without having to send them as an email. Google hangouts are the most-used app in our organization. It's where we talk to each other, share files and documents with one another, or have meetings that are led by video calls using this amazing tool!

Alternatives Considered

Slack

Google Hangouts is the better app for saving chats. With Slack, you'll need to buy a premium license and if your team reaches more than 20 members then things can get expensive. Slack may be cheaper initially but as soon as somebody adds new employees or contractors they will all have their own accounts with different pricing structures which make managing access difficult (if not impossible). That's why I recommend using Google Hangout instead- it stores everything in one place without any extra fees!

Likelihood to Recommend

Google hangouts chat has a confusing user interface that is not helpful in terms of sharing files and documents. People who work within my organization prefer using another messaging app for internal communication, which allows faster ways to distribute content across different channels or topics when necessary- Google's chat lacks an easy way to share anything with anyone else on your team without switching between tabs/pages all day long! You can't just send someone some quick information like you would through email--you have too many other options available but they're buried beneath layers upon layers where stuff collect save up until its time. Google hangout is a great tool for easy video calls. It's very well suited when I want to have an in-depth discussion with my team, so we still use google hangouts at my company! Creating a chatroom or meeting has never been easier - just share the link and everyone can join from anywhere around the world no matter what browser they're using.
