I like knowing how secure it is. It is the most accessible software to pick up that I've found for secure instant messaging - especially when passing along photos of classified information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

Quick and easy - it makes onboarding a new team member quicker because there isn't much they have to do to pick up the system, compared to things like Microsoft Teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Signal?

Signal is one of the best instant messaging apps in the market right now. The encryption and the added privacy is amazing. the ability to lock the app to prevent misuse is awesome and the customization of the reaction to messages emojis. Also, the encrypted calls are added bounce. Also, the note to self feature is awesome for saving stuff for later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

I know that signal does not charge money nor sell ads and it depends on donations so the following minor dislikes are expected. Sometimes the notification does not arrive right away and the calls sometimes do not go through but over all, it's a great app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Signal solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about Signal?

Easy to use and it has all the necessary programs and services built into it like other messaging programs. It's secure but I think it might be a bit too secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

Asking me to confirm my phone number every few days is tedious in my opinion. It's also relatively new so not a lot of people I know are currently using this program, haven't gotten all my co-workers onto the app. I kind of wish there was a desktop version or browser version as well that can cross-connect between devices for ease of access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Signal solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a great way to quickly message my team and send MMS without using too much data. Love the group chat feature and stickers to keep things fun. Super important that they keep your data secure with no trackers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
