Overall Satisfaction with Viber

Viber was used by one team to communicate with each other, to keep up to date with tasks, and be updated with everything. It was selected as it has a mobile client as well as a desktop one. Even though it has a lot of disadvantages, it is widely used by people in our country.
  • Widely used among different people.
  • Has a lot of different features.
  • Shows who has read the message.
  • Saves all the media to the gallery by default and when you delete it from the phone, it is unavailable later in the app.
  • When you delete the app and install it again, all the history is deleted.
  • Has a lot of useless features.
  • Viber stores all the media on your device and it is unavailable once you delete it.
  • Viber deletes history automatically.
  • Viber does not transfer history to other devices.
Viber is really bad compared to Slack. It is not designed for business at all.
Support does not reply to your issues.

Did implementation of Rakuten Viber go as expected?

No

Would you buy Rakuten Viber again?

No

Viber is okay if you don't have any other option and if everyone is using it and they don't want to use something else. It is not appropriate for serious tasks - it is childish, not secure, and not unreliable. It is not user-friendly.
