"Salesforce Chatter"
What do you like best about Chatter?

Salesforce Chatter makes a community of workers with shared interests in your organization. It permits any number of business activities to take put inside Chatter. The conceivable outcomes include creating support cases, passing on or upgrading sales leads, and indeed favoring financing for ventures. The Chatter data and records connect together with your other business systems in this manner making such operations as productive and error-free as conceivable.

What do you dislike about Chatter?

Salesforce licenses cost more than $700 per client annually for the professional version. In case your commerce isn't using Salesforce as of now, this could be a hefty investment. Moreover, non-sales representatives likely don't have licenses for Salesforce, which might limit the benefits you pick up from starting to utilize Chatter for ventures.

What problems is Chatter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Try it and you'll find out. If you have a big organization then you must consider this however it it's a start up then the purchase of this might come as hefty. But try the free trial and you can find out if it's helping your organization and benefits sales.

"Great tool within Salesforce CRM to enable better communication between teams on main accounts"
What do you like best about Chatter?

Chatter is a great tool, that is enabling different teams within an organization to easily chat and keep an accurate log of all the communication between teams and past teams on key accounts.

What do you dislike about Chatter?

Some of the communication isn't as urgent as it may seem, and it will log that information permanently. You want to make sure that your team knows to only include urgent/very important information, and the rest can be instant messaged, emailed, or texted.

What problems is Chatter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fast communication on key accounts, so that you are able to solve problems quicker and ensure great customer satisfaction, when time is a crucial factor.

"make multi point project management a breeze"
What do you like best about Chatter?

I enjoy that Chatter allows the user, at a glance, to see EXACTLY what activity has happened, when it occurred, and who touched it last.

What do you dislike about Chatter?

it can be a bit unwieldy when you get into the bigger projects. there is a "collapse" function that aids in that somewhat, but you lose that point-by-point visibility

What problems is Chatter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Chatter makes it easy to check in with teams on the status of multiple projects at once. I manage a bunch of titles at once, and having that 'at-a-glance' control is a huge timesave

"Convenient space for collaboration"
What do you like best about Chatter?

I like the "news feed" aspect to Chatter. When looking at specific contacts or opportunities it is helpful to have any/all notes stored in one common area. If I need to go back and look at a meeting I had with a prospect, all of my and my teams call notes are posted in Chatter.

What do you dislike about Chatter?

One feature I would like to see is a notification system for Chatter threads. For example, if I have posted in the Chatter on an opportunity, and someone else posts Chatter to the same opp a week later, I would like a notification.

What problems is Chatter solving and how is that benefiting you?

No problems with Chatter; it has been very convenient for my team and I to use. One note: we mainly use Salesforce Classic so I'm unsure of how Chatter performs within Lightning.

"Salesforce Functionality I didn't even know was there."
What do you like best about Chatter?

What I loved best about Chatter was the ability to talk to anyone that I work with in the Salesforce universe from one spot. It is really easy to @ someone with a comment or a question. I also like how if someone @'s you, you get notifications in your email and in salesforce. It is impossible to miss if someone is trying to get your attention.

What do you dislike about Chatter?

There isn't really anything I dislike about Chatter proper. The one thing that is annoying is that when you receive the email from the chatter system, you cannot get the whole picture. Attachments won't come through and you have to login to Salesforce. It is not always convenient to log in when email is so much easier on the go.

What problems is Chatter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaboration comes to mind. Instead of finding time to chat on the phone or on a video conference, I like that chatter allows me to send whatever I want when I want and I know that the other person is going to see it and reply
