About Messenger

Diligent Messenger is a secure board communication and real-time collaboration tool designed to mitigate the risk of communication breaches and leaks. Designed for board members within healthcare, education, financial services, banks, and not-for-profits, Diligent Messenger can integrate with board meeting management software to enable secure messaging and on-the-go collaboration.

In order to facilitate real-time collaboration, Diligent Messenger allows users to create pre-set contact groups and group conversations can be launched without the risk of sending messages to the wrong contacts. Contacts, groups, and conversation threads are automatically synchronized across devices so that messages can be sent and received on-the-go and from any device. Controls can be set up to manage conversations including email forwarding, and copy and paste blocking.

For enhanced security, Diligent Messenger also provides controls over permissions for board members within each conversation. Administrators are able to customize settings for governance and regulatory requirements such as login authentication measures, message retention parameters, and custom archiving of messages. Users can also wipe Diligent Messenger data from lost or compromised devices for security purposes.

Key benefits of Messenger

  • Integrate with virtual board meeting management solutions, such as Diligent Boards, to enable cross-platform, transparent communication and real-time collaboration.

  • Ensure that compromised devices are secured and no data is breached with easy wiping of Diligent Messenger conversations and archives when a device is lost or stolen.

  • Find information from archived chats using the full search capability. Diligent Messenger automatically saves important messages and ensures they can be found quickly when needed.

  • Automatically synchronize groups and contacts from Diligent Boards to quickly start conversations with other board members and share files or documents as attachments.

  • Control security with measures such as blocking forwarding or copy & pasting, as well as setting up touch ID with fingerprint technology for secure access.

    Messenger is an amazing work tool very easy to use. It is reliable, it gives me security when sending messages or information to my team in various work meetings. It is a secure tool that allows me to access it through the login.

    Pros

    It allows me a safe and transparent communication, it automatically saves me important messages. I can create conversation groups, share documents and files in meetings in a secure way. It's excellent.

    Cons

    If I had any difficulty in working with this application it would surely be due to mishandling on my part. I really do not see any disadvantage in this software.

    Messenger for art and craft

    Reviewed on 2019/10/22

    Considering all the above facts i think messenger is good.

    Considering all the above facts i think messenger is good.

    Pros

    I mostly use messenger for my bussiness because it is very easy to use and with the same time it has some features i like. Now i will point some of them. Messenger has huge collection of stikers and imojis. It makes me so happy. And also sharing photos and videos is very easy in the messenger. We can send lots of photos one time. Not only that this has group facility also. So we can chat with lots of people at the same time. Another useful feature in messenger is story. I can upload my arts and craft to stories and directly contect my customers through messenger. This makes everything easy to not only me, but also to my customers and my apprentice. I can send photos of my creations to group chats and make them aware of new collections. And also i can share my ideas with them easily. Not only that but also i can call anyone using messenger. I don't need to have their phone numbers with me. We can talk via messenger. So it is very easy to buy products from me. And my bussiness is going well thanks to messenger.

    Cons

    There are not too many cons of messenger to write. But there are few of them. One one them is sometimes its so annoying. Reason for that is the pop up of the chat head. I think it is enough to send a notification about the message. And there is no need to show the message in the notification. And there is a maximum number of photos we can share through messenger. It is better if i can send limitless number of photos in one time. Another con is when we send photos through messenger it reduce the quality of the photos. So i don't like it because my arts might be look bad to others. And this takes our contacts in the mobile phone and show our normal messages also in the messenger. This makes me confuse. So it is not nessasary. And there is one other con left. It is messenger don't show messages of the people who are not friends of mine. But they might be my customers. So if messenger shows me those messages directly i appreciate it a lot.
