Google Chat
Google Chat is a messaging and collaboration service included with Google Workspace at no additional cost. It runs on the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Persistent collaboration spaces can hold up to 500,000 members, while administrators can set whether message history is on or off by default. Chat connects with Workspace apps including Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Meet, and Google Groups, as well as tools such as Asana, GitHub, Jira, Salesforce, and Trello. Organizations can build custom apps with Chat APIs and Apps Script, and can migrate existing data from Slack or Teams with interoperability solutions available. Gemini in Chat can summarize conversations, share action items, translate, and brainstorm. Google Workspace offers a 14-day free trial. Business Starter costs $7 a month on an annual commitment, billed monthly for a yearly term, and supports up to 300 users. Workspace subscriptions include other apps such as Gmail, Meet, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, and Sites.
