Chat

The Chat setting controls whether users can send and receive chat messages.

  • Chat messages can be sent to personal and company contacts and devices that are part of the company, even if a user is not currently logged in to such a device.
  • Chat is available outside active remote sessions.
  • Disabling chat prevents message exchange but does not affect remote connections.
  • Disabling the chat also restricts company users’ personal setting (at the company level, the actual setting is not changed, just restricted) regarding receiving messages from other sources (company, personal contacts and devices).
  • Disabling chat also removes all access point to chat feature ( device, contact → Send message, not searchable as a feature via Global Search, hidden and not configurable from the custom navigation sidebar). Chat routes, new message notifications and pop-ups are also disabled.

This setting helps organizations control internal communication and reduce misuse.

Active Connections
