Google Chat is different because it works well with other Google apps like Gmail and Google Drive, making it easy to share files and set up meetings.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The thing I don’t like about Google Chat is that it doesn’t work as smoothly with apps that aren’t from Google. It’s great with Google tools, but not as easy to use with other apps. Also, some people might find it too simple compared to other chat apps that have more features.
