Successfully Beta Tested… So We Know It Works Right Out Of The Box!

 Our awesome beta testers have already tested JomChat. They found just one problem (which we squished). You should have a very smooth experience.

Add Chat To Your Community

A lot of people have asked us for a chat feature, and for good reason. It adds a lot of value to a community and facilitates interactions between users.
 
Try it for a couple of weeks and see the difference.

This Is Just The Beginning…

JomChat is already pretty awesome but it’s only going to get better. The guys from Blooie will be paying close attention to your feedback, and adding and improving based on your suggestions. Post any feedback on our community JomChat page and let them know what you think.

Tighter JomSocial Integration

One thing we’ll be doing is tightening the JomSocial integration even more. We want to add settings for the admin and for your members to allow them to control JomChat better. For example, user settings will be available for a more customizable experience and it will also be working more closely with the messaging feature in Jomsocial

FAQ

 
Why should I go with a hosted solution and not host it on my own server?


Blooie host JomChat application on their own, powerful servers, to give you the quality and performance you won’t find if you self-host. Using their hosted solution prevents site slow-down you might find if you host it yourself, especially if you are using a shared hosting account or even an avarage-performance dedicated server.

Their servers also make installation, integration and upgrades a lot easier, you don’t have to add any hardware, software or bandwidth, they do it all for you!

Finding yourself a top-end server which matches our quality of service would cost you a small fortune!

They take all the pressure of hosting so you can sit back and chat!

So what if I had a go at hosting a chat application myself?

Hosting a chat application yourself could result in your site slowing down, or stopping altogether. If you did find a server that could match Blooie's servers, it would cost you a lot more than opting for the hosting that they provide.

Allowing Blooie to host the JomChat application for you ensures you get the best performance and usability possible.

Who will support JomChat?
