  • Uses of a Multi Messenger Client

Like I explained before, if you happen to have a lot of accounts on different chat clients and social networks, it gets difficult to maintain all of them at the same time. For example, you're chatting to a friend on Yahoo and another friend wants to chat with you on Hotmail. If you fire up both the applications on your PC, it's sure to use a lot of your system resources and will certainly bring down it's performance. At times like this, a multi messenger client is a much better and useful software to have. It'll save a lot of time, you won't have to launch 3-4 different apps and then sign in on each of them.

This is one of the most important advantage of using a multi messenger, other than the fact that you'll have easier access to all your accounts. Use one single messenger to chat to your friends/family, check your emails and post updates on your favorite social network. Here are 6 multi messenger clients for desktop that I'll be talking about in brief.
