Description

Been using Google Chat for a couple months now. It’s basically a messaging and collaboration app for teams using Google Workspace. Kinda like Slack, but with some cool AI features.

The main thing you do is start chats with co-workers, share updates, and work on projects together. There’s also some neat stuff like automated summaries of important conversations and the ability to translate messages to over 120 languages. Oh, and you can do real-time video ‘huddles’ which is pretty handy.

Look, if you’re in a Google Workspace environment, you’ll probably find Google Chat useful. It’s not perfect – the interface can be a little clunky at times and the search isn’t as powerful as I’d like. But overall it gets the job done and makes team communication a lot smoother.

Editor Opinion

So here's my take on Google Chat. I've used a bunch of different team messaging apps and this one's pretty solid. The AI features are really useful, like the automated summaries and translation. And the huddle function is great for quick face-to-face catch-ups. But it's not without its issues - the UI feels a little outdated and there's room for improvement on search. Still, if you're already using Google Workspace, this is a no-brainer. Definitely worth checking out.

Google Chat is the worst. I can't place my settings to see links in a web browser, I can't see all images in a chat and when I click on...

Zero stars. Forced out of hangouts. Google chat is far less intuitive, infuriating, and extremely glitchy. Only about 20% of the images/files I attempted to send successfully go through. You...

Compared to Hangouts, we traveled about half the Earth's diameter in distance going backwards. Everything in Hangouts was simple, right in one area and easy to access. Now, everything is...
