Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I can transmit

photographs, audio, and video as part of their communications; it's quite

dependable, and I won't lose a lot of data until I upload or download larger

things, as chatting just uses bytes of data. It's speedy;

my recipient receives the information as soon as I press the send button, and I

can transmit and receive video files up to 1024 MB, as well as many photographs

and photos.

Pros

high level of security
end-to-end encrypted secret chats
protects my messages from cyber-attacks

Cons

It does not support voice communications.
It is occasionally necessary to launch the app in order to receive messages, which renders the "instant messaging app" useless
The contact list is based on phone numbers and requires mobile device contact rights.

Likelihood to Recommend

For phone

conversations and optional end-to-end encrypted secret chats between two online

users, the service provides end-to-end encryption, but not for groups or

channels. It contains a self-destruction function that ensures that all

discussions run well. It has a very stable and dependable performance, and

messages are sent quickly, making it one of the fastest chat programs

accessible. It does not

have multiple selections when I want to send more than one file; I cannot

choose numerous files and send them all at once; instead, I must send the first

file first, then the second.

Telegram attached more people in one group. We added lots of travelers to our telegram group. Most of the time they used to talk about our next trip. And when we announce a trip they informed through the group and join into the trip. So it becomes easy for us to promote our business through telegram. there is no limit to add members to groups. That is very helpful to my company.

Pros

Can create a big group for promotion
Easy to create account and find members
Can send secret massages
Cloud storage also available here
Cloud-based instant messaging service

Cons

Group video calls
It's does offer a level of security and protection to its users
Sender can delete there massage
We can't easily figure out the opposite person is online or offline

The best private communication app in the world!

Rating: 10 out of 10

July 13, 2021

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Telegram as a secure connection to talk, video chat, or text clients who want more privacy with their personal information. I need a lot of personal details about my clients in order to create art of their family. Most people don't want this getting out into the world, so this has been a great method for us to communicate while they get the privacy they need! An added bonus has been that I can call my international clients with this app, too!

Pros

Group video chats are amazing! Especially since so many of my clients have to travel for work. Now the traveling spouse can be involved in all the meetings and feels totally connected to the process.
Their privacy is the absolute best! My clients feel very secure sending me personal information over this app and speak more freely using it!
The super privacy concerned love that they can send me a message and set it to self destruct. Everyone thinks that is amazing!

Cons

I do wish that once you set up a channel that you could change how people interact with the channel easier once it's been set up and used for a while. I set a channel for my business and while I still love it, I want my clients to be able to chat under a post that I broadcast.
Some channels or groups I have tried searching for have been hard to find, I do wish that this could be a little easier, but I have a feeling the privacy this app has is part of the reason why they're hard to find.
I'd like to give my clients and family members different rings for when they're calling or messaging. I know this is possible in the app, it's just hard to figure out how to do it for some reason.

Likelihood to Recommend

Telegram has been very well suited for family video calls and conversations where detailed and private information is being shared. Video calling is fantastic and I'm so thrilled that they added group video calls now! The video quality is also so good that I've been able to use it to make virtual portrait sessions happen. I just don't use this for sending out formal contracts and things like that. I feel like email still needs to be used for those scenarios, but any client that just wants a secure way of communicating with me about their private family matters...this is THE app to use!

Can't think [of] anything better than Telegram right now.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Telegram for communication among our team members. It supports us with many types of files, and we can keep the original file sizes with quality to share with each other. It's the one flexible platform for us to communicate with each other. And we do communicate with many foreign clients of ours easily as well.

Pros

The most important thing is, it is a cloud based software. No attachment with phone, can easily use in PC.
The bots of Telegram that one can create for business are of great use.
The privacy policy of Telegram is highly positive.
It is totally ad free. That makes you comfort[able] during work with it.
Super easy to use. No cost [for] all the features of it.
Super speedy with any kind of sharing.

Cons

It is so safe to use that many users can share anything, including private pictures of anyone, even nudity as well. That is horribly disgusting.
They should restrict those users who run nudity in the Telegram groups and community.
Otherwise, I don't have any problem[s with] Telegram. I am a very satisfied user of Telegram.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well Telegram has [more] features than many other messaging tools. We can add members to the community or group as much as we can. It supports everywhere. Huge storage capacity, highly quality full sharing is [better] than so many other messaging tools. The security of Telegram is highly superb. So many groups and channels to join, to share, to gather information, [etc.] to run any kind of business smoothly. And I do not think it is less appropriate in any sense.

May 1, 2021

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In our organization, Telegram is used almost by every individual to communicate easily with each other. However, the project managers and Marketing Team are using it in a broader scope. It helps create larger groups for sharing the updated documentations among our customers as well as taking their reviews and suggestions. It helps to deliver images with the same quality to the recipient instantly. The app is lighter in size and super fast.

Pros

Smaller and lighter app
Super fast
Easy to use
Images are delivered to recipients of same quality as sent.
No need to keep pictures and videos once sent.
Instant video messages like voice notes.
Large user's community

Cons

Lack of awareness among similar application users.
All of the rest is well.

Likelihood to Recommend

I always recommend Telegram over other similar applications because it helps to communicate easily with a lighter design, faster service, enhanced features, large user community, and especially exceptionally larger groups. It delivers images of the same quality to the recipient instantly without requiring the sender to keep them on the device once sent. Instant video messages make video communication more casual just like voice notes.

Telegram is great for group communication

Rating: 7 out of 10

Incentivized

March 26, 2021

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my company, we use Telegram in its Sales department to create transmission lists to inform customers about information about our agency and their projects. We also use it in our service sector, where we use Telegram to communicate with customers and partners informing status about their projects or answering questions.

Pros

Transmission lists
Group communication
Single communication

Cons

Video chat
Audio chat

Likelihood to Recommend

Telegram can be used very well when a company or person would like to create a group where only news and information are transmitted without the interruption of other users. These lists allow more than 250 users, a limit that WhatsApp imposes when creating this same type of list. Telegram is less used in direct conversations because not everyone has the habit of using the application in Brazil where WhatsApp dominates.
