Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're glad Clearstream has been easy for you to use and helpful overall! Regarding group chats, there is not a way to have a group chat through Clearstream where several people are all able to respond to one another at one time. Thank you again for sharing about your experience, we really appreciate it!

The program is super user-friendly, and I like that you can choose a local phone number. I can set up a message in no time, and I especially love that I can create the message on Monday even if I don't need the text to send out until Wednesday at 9:00 AM. That feature is super useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? I do not like the limited character counts. It makes it really difficult to send out information to the necessary people. I wish the character count was more like it is on Twitter. Just know if you use Clearstream, you will either have to be okay with using text lingo (which I hate) or you will have to pay extra for more credits to send out text messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? As of right now, I do not know of any specific problem Clearstream is helping me solve beyond simple communication. I like how easy it is to send out mass communication.

Works wonderfully, texts are always sent quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? You have to have your contacts updated on a regular basis with the most current information. There is really no good way to send to an ad hoc list of people unless they are already in your contacts.
