Chances are, your business’ primary mode of internal communication is email. And you’re using instant messaging (IM) apps for virtual meetups and updates from the team, thanks to the coronavirus. Don’t get me wrong, email is great and all for internal communication (if you lived in the 20th century that is). But did you know your email to your teammates gets lost in a sea of unimportant emails? And irrelevant emails account for about 62% of the total emails in an average inbox!

Email is slow and tedious, but with instant messaging apps, it’s a whole new world. Integrating existing apps with emails is almost impossible with IM apps, but they perform better than emails, they don’t offer the seamless user experience.
