We at Wishbook have a B2B mobile application (Android & iPhone), wherein we are looking to implement Text & photo communication - between users 1-to-1, or from a user to his group of buyers. We are keen on something that can get us upto speed ASAP, offers good support, is mature library / server, and is also battery friendly.
We are now comparing between Layer, Applozic, QuickBlox & SendBird. Anyone used them? What protocols (XMPP / MQTT / custom / other) are used by them? Experience using it - interms of stable code base, etc? Also - we prefer open-source & more pocket friendly product as well.
Thanks, Arvind
I also had similar question. The following charts mentioned in the articles helped me finalise the chat api to be used. Feature Comparison and Pricing
Applozic has cross app communication and broadcast messaging as well. Support is very quick with Applozic.
I have recently just tested two of the solutions you have cited.
QuickBlox :
Applozic :
Both programs:
I preferred Applozic as the user interface was nicer and easier to use, and the features and pricing clearer. I also preferred the API and the setup code was easier.
