Signal supports rich multimedia messaging features, as a business it helps us to easily highlight the changes on images. Its very helpful for the team working in remotely or out of office.

What do you like best about Signal?

Signal was easy to set up and is easy to use. I needed to exchange information that should not be in regular email or in a regular text message, and Signal made it easy. Signal prompts me weekly for my PIN so there is no risk that I forget it when I need it. The interface is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

Nothing. Signal simply works, which is what I expect in an app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I had two immediate needs: The need to communicate non-public textual information securely and the need to communicate a larger file containing non-public information. Signal did both of those things! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Signal?

Signal is completely new app to send and receive SMS using mobile application or desktop app which can be easily synced with your existing mobile app. Apart from that you can easily send multimedia SMS messages and use your creativity by adding stickers provided by the app, add custom texts on images & lots more things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Signal?

Signal should provide information about timezone before calling so that we don't call another user in odd timing ex at night time when they are sleeping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Signal:

Signal can be used for Personal as well as within the group of friends or company colleagues. Signal allows to create group where you can share the messages. However signal has to cover a lot of path to make its reachability to wide mass. We as a small group of employees in our company are trying to use this app, actually we are making experiment & trying to explore which app is most fit for day to day use & remote connect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Nothing specific but its a wake to try something new but its Multimedia messaging and filesharing functionality is quite impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
