    Facebook Messenger serves my business for quick client interaction and for timely updates. The software allows me to share to one of many people and receive feedback quickly to keep working. The ability to see people available is also key in creating even further efficiencies. I also love file sharing through the platform

    Facebook Messenger is a more popular chat solution and allows you to reach clients more quickly compared to whatsapp. I've found whatsapp to be a little fraudulent around contact information and people not known to me reaching out. Facebook Messenger has moments of this too but it is less regular
