Email was once something you did yourself, you had to hire at least a person, and eventually a team to maintain servers, experts in exchange or other SMTP queueing software, maintain industry relations so you are hitting the inbox, etc. Then one day services like SendGrid, Mailjet, and Sparkpost came along and made us all realize that was an absurd model, paying a SaaS provider for email is infinitely more effecient.

The same transformation is underway now, but with Chat. If you're building Chat yourself, you're making your life much harder and more expensive than it needs to be. Join the evolution.
