You can use hangouts to talk with more than one person at a time which includes conversation up to more than 150 people and video calls that can include up to 10 people.
Google has recently launched an exciting feature to create and share short links to hangouts group chats. This helps your team to opt-in to chat where you do not have to invite people one by one. It has become simpler and easier to create group chats for project or teams where you just have to name your chat while you create a group.Once this is done,this allows you to create “placeholder” group chats which you can later share with just a link having the advantage to remove and add people into the group.
Google is always excited to come up with great innovation and hence, would be happy to announce that in the coming weeks several features are coming to Google Hangouts to make it more easy and useful to use group chats at work.
A lot many organizations use group chats in Google Hangouts to manage projects, plan events, and participate in other chat and collaboration tasks. In order to make it easier to get to your group chats, you can also easily find your group conversations by searching for the group name or participant name.
These Google Hangouts changes to group chats will continue to follow the administrative controls that you have set in admin console.
Link sharing and removing from groups on Google Hangouts is now available on all platforms. Group search is already available on Android and will be coming to the web and iOS soon. Finally, google is looking at additional ways to make group conversations even better in the future, so please stay tuned!
