    Instant communication with unique features

    Date: Jul 02 2021

    Summary: In the company, we use it to create communication groups and send large files right there. Other platforms do not have the same capacity and quality of sending files or documents. It is highly reliable and keeps the group together, essential for any person who wants a potent communication tool. It has a great scope of social interaction that is reflected in the quality of sending emoticons and files. It works very well, and you will like it to the fullest.

    Positive: Podium has an excellent interface; it has a high quality in sending files, I can send images or audios without losing quality. Besides that, I use it to create more effective communication and with guaranteed security conditions. Podium cloud is incredible for storing information.

    Negative: I'm not too fond of that without running the application, the messages don't arrive, I have to open the application, and it starts to connect to receive the Podium.
