Feature overview

Chat

A crucial feature for true team collaboration. It allows you to chat with coworkers in various rooms and inside emails, SMS, and other channels of communication.

Chats for all use cases

Missive offers various built-in rooms, and you can create new chat conversations at any time.

  • General room: chat with everyone in the organization.
  • Team rooms: discuss ideas with people from a given team.
  • One-to-one rooms: have private conversations with a coworker.
  • On-demand conversations: invite specific people and start a discussion on a particular topic.

Comments

These are very helpful when a coworker needs help, you wish to express an opinion, or simply want to discuss an idea. For example, in a customer support setting where you don't know what to reply to a customer.

Instead of forwarding an email to a coworker or having to call a manager, you can just @mention someone and ask for help, all without leaving the email's screen. The other person will be able to access the email instantly to get the full context and guide you through the chat.
