LinkedIn Chat Application



While LinkedIn was created as a professional social network to link people with professional experience in various fields it continues to prove itself as one of the best in this domain by recently integrating a chat application into its platform. The LinkedIn chats application commonly known as LinkedIm is a live chat app that was developed for LinkedIn users to enable them connect directly and instantly when they are online. The LinkedIm app is very simple and requires only your LinkedIn login credentials to login. This app makes the connection between LinkedIn users more effective and dismisses the inconveniences of writing emails and waiting for responses which might never come, making phone calls which will incur costs or which might not go through due to poor network. The LinkedIn chat app also gives the opportunity to entrepreneurs or team leaders to bring together a geographically distributed workforce for team resolution processes instantly thus improving resolution time. The LinkedIn chat application   was therefore designed to increase productivity, decrease wait time and improve on resolution time.
The application is available in two versions; the website version and the extension version for web browsers such as Google chrome.  Both versions can be found on the LinkedIn website. The key features of the LinkedIm app are;   Chat manager for customized channel setup to allow single interaction with multiple customers, upload capability to upload files, team view making it possible for a   team to view and discuss an incident in real time. With LinkedIm, LinkedIn Messenger users will not have to go to other social platforms to discuss in real time. They will conveniently be able to discuss on the LinkedIn platform. This makes the exchange of ideas, opportunities and information more effective.
