You don't have to wait in a long queue when your problem needs addressing. **What do you dislike about Lua?** The only downside is video compression. Although it is done in literally every app that uses video, but in a medical app, where the patient might need to show some injury, there should be an option for unfiltered streaming using more data. **Recommendations to others considering Lua:** If you or your employees need help with telehealthcare, you should go for Lua. **What problems is Lua solving and how is that benefiting you?** Help is quick. Also, the quality of care improves using Lua. Instant counselling makes it easier for both doctors and patients/clients to deal with the situation.

Powerful Business Communication **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2016 **What do you like best about Lua?** Lua is a very smooth app. It handles lots of communication tools for local and remote teams - file uploads, mobile syncing, fast connections, great UI. This app could almost replace slack in most companies - especially is you need to hook into Medical tooling. Connections to many of the major file shares is nice. **What do you dislike about Lua?** This tool is not as customizable as Slack - integrations are hard to build. It is also tailored more for Sales/Business/Medical, where as I am in a gaming and media company. This may not be the proper tool for me, but it is still a pretty decent one. **Recommendations to others considering Lua:** If you are looking to have a great chat, collaboration, file sharing tool and are in sales or health fields, this is the tool for you! Take a look, give it a try and get to know everything it has to offer. **What problems is Lua solving and how is that benefiting you?** Communication and file sharing is a big thing with remote developers and offsite clients. We wanted to find an affordable and easy to use tool to solve this. While this wasn't a perfect fit, it was still a great experience and made us evaluate other tools with a grain of salt. Lua is a great tool. ## Lua Discussions - [How does Lua work?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/lua-how-does-lua-work) - [How does Lua work?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-does-lua-work) - [Is Lua better than Python?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/is-lua-better-than-python) - [What is Lua software?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-lua-software) - [What is Lua best used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-lua-best-used-for) - [View Lua pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/lua/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-29+15%3A08%3A55+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=9fbccded-7218-4442-9cb5-fe575f031ab4&secure%5Btoken%5D=c635a42687f0ee2208db06e464eb143fac9cc18bc1bb9136efee8bc9ea17cf93&format=llm_user) ## Lua Features **Collaboration** - Modules - Scheduling - Reporting **Platform** - User Authorization - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Compliant Texting - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Compliant Emailing - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Clinical Communication - HIPAA Compliance - HIPAA Compliance - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Operating Systems - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Message Lifespan - HIPAA Compliant Messaging - Workflow Enhancement - HIPAA Compliant Messaging **Communication** - Security - Health Care Messages - Alarms - Messaging - Telephone - Notifications **Patient Management** - Staff Scheduling - Patient Retention - CDI (Clinical Document Improvement) **Operations** - Correspondance Variety - Data Sharing - Cross Platform Support - Routing - Health Care IT Integration - Analytics and Reporting - Messaging Security ## Top Lua Alternatives - [Weave](https://www.g2.com/products/weave-weave/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (416 reviews) - [Rocket.Chat](https://www.g2.com/products/rocket-chat/reviews) - 4.2/5.0 (348 reviews) - [Paubox](https://www.g2.com/products/paubox/reviews) - 4.9/5.0 (563 reviews)
