Synology Chat Quick Start Guide for users
What is Synology Chat?
Synology Chat is an instant messaging service on Synology NAS that provides users with an efficient way to communicate and manage information. Once an administrator has set it up, users can use Synology Chat as a fun and customizable platform for team collaboration and communication.
Why use Synology Chat?
Utilize public or private channels
- Create a channel to gather all relevant personnel to ensure everyone is on the same page. You can invite specific members to a private channel or create a public channel that is open to everyone in your company.
Encrypt messages when needed
- Administrators can flexibly turn on the end-to-end encryption feature, allowing users to set a passphrase for private channels and conversations. All the encrypted messages are safely stored on the server and cannot be viewed by administrators.
Chat from anywhere, at anytime
- Chat offers a web browser client and desktop client designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. With the iOS and Android mobile apps, you can communicate with others at anytime from wherever you are.
