Group Chat
SmarterMail includes a robust XMPP/Jabber server that supports voice, video, and text chat. Therefore, it’s the ideal solution for chatting with individuals or small groups and can be started right from the webmail client or using your preferred instant message app – on desktop or mobile. Even better, since group chat is confined to your organization, your chats are private and secured from the outside world.

Downloadable History
Users can download any group chat they've had, for personal reasons or to ensure compliance regulations are met. Chat downloads are zipped up to help save space and can be opened using any text editor: Notepad, Wordpad, Notepad++ and more.
Voice, Video and Text
Having an internal XMPP / Jabber server means SmarterMail’s instant messaging can offer text chat as well as voice and video chat. And since all of this is confined to your organization, you can be assured that your data is safe and secure.
File Sharing
If you've used products like HipChat, you know the benefit of being able to simply drag-and-drop files into a chat. SmarterMail's Group Chat allows this, and even includes image and link previews, so you know what you're going to get, before you actually get it.
Status Indicators
A user's "presence", or online status, carries over whether using Group Chat within the webmail client or your favorite chat app. That means users can change their status when they step away from their desks and everyone can see their availability.
Immediate Archiving
With SmarterMail's archiving, any chat message you send or receive is automatically captured and stored for later retrieval. This helps meet compliance or regulatory restrictions plus you can go back in time to find an important piece of information for a presentation, customer pitch, and more.
