Replace Email With Powerful Private Messages
With Private Messages, MangoApps has removed the drawbacks of using email for internal communications while improving the user experience. Without the external distractions of SPAM or having to overcome the fear of phishing emails, users can focus solely on communicating. All messages are sent safely and securely and provide instant dialogue with any number of coworkers, all in the MangoApps environment.
Everyone in MangoApps Gets an Email ID
All active users are assigned a MangoApps Email ID, regardless of their role or job function. While some employees may already require traditional email accounts, giving employees without a company issued email address a place to receive important email-centric communications without using their personal email, helps integrate them further with the workforce.
Compose Private Messages With Rich Text
Private messages support creating and viewing of messages in rich text messaging including bold, italics, underlining, alignment, bulleted or numbered lists, text and background colors, heading titles, and links.
Filter and Select Recipients Like Never Before
Users can start conversations directly from any page using the static ‘Compose’ button or directly from the inbox. Unlike email, a full employee directory is immediately available, with an extensive number of available filters. Users can filter their recipient(s) based on a number of specific criteria and attributes, including: office location, department, team, join date, skills, and more.
Transparent and Consistent Communication
Unlike email, users can edit messages to fix typos or add additional thoughts, without ever having to recall a message. Participants can be added to a thread at any time, making messages visible and searchable by anyone in the conversation. In addition, to ensure transparency, private messages cannot be forwarded or BCC'ed.
Message In Style With No File Attachment Limits
With no limit to the number of files or file size, users no longer need to worry about sharing attachments over the email provider’s limit. Attaching files or media is made easy with the simple drag and drop of files into the conversation or with the attachment tool. MangoApps also make conversations interactive and engaging with animated GIF images, emojis or the ability to react with emotion directly to messages instead of sending tedious short replies.
Receive Full HTML emails as Private Messages
With MangoApps email IDs enabled, active users and white-listed external email addresses can send an email to any MangoApps user or team using their MangoApps email ID. These emails are then received in MangoApps as a full HTML private message or news feed post.
Two-Way Private Messages To External Email Addresses
When a comment/reply is posted in response to a private message received over email, the external email address will receive the reply back over email. This also applies to comments or replies that are posted on the newsfeed when posted via email.
Control Approved Incoming and Outgoing Addresses
Domain admins will setup a list of allowed email addresses that are able to send an email converted to a private message to users in your domain, or to a team which converts the email to a news feed item. This not only allows for white-listing email addresses or trusted external systems, but allows permissions to be set for allowing 1-way or 2-way communication.
Never Get Unwanted Communications
Emails sent to a user or team that are from a sender, system or IP address range not on the allowed list, will be automatically dropped by MangoApps making it undeliverable. This ensures that only important or internal communications make it to users, and MangoApps remains 100% SPAM free.
Deep Search of Message Content
Search thoroughly through the full content of all messages to quickly find what you’re looking for. All search results are actionable, allowing users to respond back, invite others or flag messages for follow-up. All matching search terms are highlighted, to make finding the right message easy.
Confirmed Read With Receipt
Send messages and get immediate insight into who has read the message and when. Automatic acknowledgment for important communications removes the guesswork and necessity for annoying follow-ups or acknowledgment response, just to make sure a colleague has seen a message.
Reminders For Follow-Up
Much like emails, messages may come through at an inopportune moment, which results in a forgotten response. Aside from marking a message as ‘unread’, users can easily set a reminder for any given time/date with a note, prompting them to respond or react at a more appropriate time.
Turn Off Replies
Managers who need to distribute information to a large group by private message can disable replies. This ensures that no one gets caught in an irrelevant reply-all chain, as often happens in email.
