Qwil Messenger: The secure and compliant Slack alternative

Qwil Messenger is the secure and compliant slack alternative for client facing businesses. Unlimited message history, video, e-signature, file sharing, appointment booking all in one place.

Why use Qwil instead of Slack?

Qwil was built for secure and compliant communication in all forms with both clients and colleagues. Not just internal communication.

  • 2 factor authentication, and invitation only users. So that you always know you are talking to the right person.
  • Banking grade security infrastructure. End to end encryption at rest and in transit. Your data is always secure.
  • Customizable access controls. So that only authorized users can see client and business data.
  • Fixed and uneditable audit trails. Permenant message history to maintain compliance.

Qwil is like slack on steroids. Imagine you can do everything that slack does, but also use it with your clients. We switched to Qwil for all of our internal and client-facing communication and never looked back. The unlimited message history that slack can’t give you means that we have records of everything. Qwil is also just as easy to use.

What make Qwil the best Slack Alternative?

Qwil does everything that slack does, and more. If you are using slack, you need to integrate it into a larger eco-system of your tech stack to communicate internally and externally.

Qwil is that eco-system. Chat, share files, host video calls and sign documents with clients, colleagues and partners all in one place. If you chose slack, you may also need to use platforms like zoom, docusign, dropbox all on top of your slack subscription.

Maintain security and compliance at all times. Qwil is a banking grade secure platform. All your users are verified, and all your data is kept securely, and owned by you.

Why do businesses need tools like Qwil and Slack?

Email is outdated. We don’t prefer to use email in our personal lives. When was the last time you sent an email to your friends or family? Instant messaging platforms have become our preferred channel of communication. As with the written letter, email is now legacy technology.

Since this change, businesses are starting to now reflect the same preference. As shows in the rise in demand for instant messaging for business . This is because seamless communication is critical for modern business. Every team needs to be able to collaborate smoothly and efficiently. Every client needs to feel serviced quickly and conveniently. And all people involved, internal, external, partners, staff or clients prefer instant messaging because it is:

  • Asynchronous communication: You can communicate without all being online at the same time
  • Simple, easy and fast compared to email, phone calls and in person
  • Easier to organize than long email threads
  • With designated business platforms, more secure and compliant with regulation.

The amount of time I save with Qwil is insane. From having Slack, Docusign, Dropbox, Zoom and Calendly, to now having one unified communication platform has changed the game for me. Not to mention the amount of money I’ve saved on all my software subscriptions.
