SUMMARY:

Facebook Messenger and Discord play a vital role in communication as people use these
applications, they help them create a new virtual world and connect. However, even though they have
the same purpose, they still differ in different features. Facebook Messenger offers efficient
communication with others through messaging, providing easier access and connections with their
friends, relatives, and even strangers online. Group chat functionality enables multiple conversations
and media, files, and links sharing in one place, enhancing connectivity, convenience, and collaborative
work development. The attachment feature is the best for sharing various types of content, making
communication easier and more convenient. Customization features are available also in Facebook
Messenger, personalizing chat themes, colors, nicknames, and avatars, however, it is relatively limited
compared to Discord.

On the other hand, Discord excels in organizing communication with servers and channels,
ensuring easy access to important discussions. It also offers collaborative features such as group chats
that provide efficiency in messaging, voice chat, screen sharing, and other tools that enhance
connectivity, especially for gamers and online communities. Attachment features support file and link
sharing within a server, catering to various needs within the platform. Same with Facebook Messenger,
customization options allow users to have customized usernames, avatars, and themes, fostering a
more personalized environment. Both applications have different features which facilitate seamless
communication and teamwork across different communities and groups with the same interests and
purposes.

BEST COLLABORATIVE TOOL:

After examining each application with the different features they offer, we concluded that
Facebook Messenger is the best collaborative tool between the two applications. Firstly, this application
is commonly used in today's generation which caters to billions of individuals all over the world. One of
the reasons also why people still choose to use this tool rather than any other tool is because it has a
high level of chat efficiency which provides high-quality services to the users. It is very easy to use
when messaging other people online, with just one click, it can create new memories between two or
more people interacting together. Customization features can also be seen in the application that allows
users to have more fun interactions with other people. Additionally, it is more accessible especially since
Facebook Messenger allows users to connect with others even without load and wifi internet
connection. This also helps people, especially in times of emergency. Unlike other applications, it needs
to have a load or wifi internet connection before users can access and utilize the services it provides.
Furthermore, this application is best used for planning a meeting, events, video calls, and other
teamwork activities. This provides an enhancement to the collaborative environment within the group.
As users can easily contribute to the discussion because of the attachment feature of this application
especially in a workplace, school, or casual conversations, media, links, and file sharing are important
for a smooth flow of conversations. Being exposed to communities online is also a need in today's
generation as it enhances people's social skills and can bring positive impact especially if a community
is aligned with their interests and purposes, that is why Facebook Messenger is the best app to create
a new environment even in an online interaction because there are communities that users can join to
communicate with strangers. Moreover, businesses in the country increase and it needs to have a place
online to create their industry where potential customers can explore their offerings. Facebook
Messenger created a marketplace for sellers and buyers, and this is an effective way for sellers to gain
more profit. Lastly, Facebook Messenger ensures the safety of the personal information of the users.
Therefore, it recently created an end-to-end encryption message that only users can access if a pin is
encoded. It is a great way for users to feel safe while they are using this application.
