What is Element?

Among useful programs for those who work remotely, the Element - Secure Messenger application takes its place of honor. This is a program that combines several useful functions and is ideal for creating group chats in a work team. Using the end-to-end encryption feature, it guarantees security and makes it impossible for data or personal information to leak.

Main functions and features of Element:

  • Security of file data transfer and joint development of project documentation;
  • Full encryption of messages between group members and a corporate room for confidential conversations;
  • Easily integrates with all online collaboration tools and other text exchange programs;
  • One of the most advanced and modern tools for online communication;
  • Secure group video conferencing;
  • The open source code of the program was created on the Matrix platform;

This is a fundamentally new application that works on an open network and can secure the exchange of messages within a chat. Each conference participant can independently post a message and send confidential data to the group. Protection against unwanted data collection protects all video and audio files exchanged between conference participants.

Now you can communicate with any user of the Matrix network, regardless of whether he uses the Element program or uses another program for correspondence. You decide where to store data and correspondence. Gain control over any situation by registering your account on one of our servers. You can create an account in an easy way, which is practically no different from the standard procedures of such a plan.

Now you can be sure that messaging, making video and audio calls, and sharing your screen with other users will always be protected from external influences. The Element program guarantees constant and uninterrupted communication and completion of any tasks.
