What is VBC Team Messaging?

Team Messaging is a work chat feature that allows your team to connect in real-time, from any device. With Team Messaging, you can start or join group work chats, share files and media, send and receive messages from your office phone number, make voice calls, and escalate to video with colleagues — all from the VBC Desktop or Mobile App.

How does VBC Team Messaging work?

Team Messaging is built into the Vonage Business Communications platform, so that team communications are available in the VBC Desktop and Mobile App. This allows your team to access work chat in the same app they use for phone calls, video conferencing, text messaging, and other business communications.

 

Team Messaging is included in your VBC Desktop and Mobile App.  With Team Messaging, there’s no need to pay for an additional messaging app for employees.  Simply visit Vonage Business Communications Web App — or download the desktop or mobile app — to get started.
