Caters to

Awesome product, but comes at a wallet emptying $20/mo. after a three month trial period. A non-profit as myself has no chance to even try this out knowing I can't afford the premium. It was a waste downloading, wish they would have stated their intention to charge $19.99 per month in the description. Even $1/mo. Is out of my price range, considering if this price is per app, vs per network. Even the in-app purchase doesn't mention the upgrade price is going to be repeated every month.

If you are a medical facility, the price is easy to absorb in daily costs. There's not a good inter-text over wifi app out there ( this may be the only one), one that will display in large script, getting the attention in an environment where audio/voice notification can't be heard.

I run a sound board, and we need to communicate with our sound counterparts in the foyer for issues pertaining to sound. It is too noisy for intercom voice radios, and small text notification are not feasible or noticed. This app would be perfect for sound board communications, if the price were set to a much lower bar.

Can't live without it

This is such a great app! Great way to communicate with the staff without the hassle of tracking them down! Perfect for offices with large volume of doctors and staff. It's so easy to use anyone can do it! Once you start, you can't live without it!

Awesome App!

This is an innovative solution to intra-office communication challenges. It is easy to use, effective and allows private message communications when texting and speaking are inappropriate. Can’t wait for the iPhone version!

Great app!

This is a neat app! I can communicate with my staff without needing to call them or walk over and bother them or bother other clients. I can just send a message and I know staff will see it right away. Very simple and very useful in an office that offers services to various clients.
