New Internal Chat Extension for EspoCRM (Private Messaging + Groups)

[pimpmycrm]

Hi everyone,

After working extensively with EspoCRM in real business environments, I noticed that many teams still rely on external tools (WhatsApp, Slack, email) for internal communication — even when they spend most of the day inside Espo.

So I decided to build a lightweight internal chat extension directly inside EspoCRM.




Features:

• Private 1-to-1 messaging between users
• Group chats
• Clean and modern UI
• Fully integrated inside Espo (no external service required)
• Real-time feel (without being heavy)
• Online/Away/Offline Status

The idea is simple:
Keep team communication inside the CRM where the work actually happens.


In our case, switching between tools was:

• Slowing down workflows
• Losing context
• Creating unnecessary friction

This extension keeps conversations internal and connected to daily operations.

I’m currently testing it in production and refining the UX.

If anyone is interested in testing it, feel free to comment or send me a message.

I’d love to hear what features you would consider essential for an internal chat inside EspoCRM.

Thanks 🙌

Hey, this looks amazing!

I’d love to test it.

apart from making the floating chat window, will it have a full view entity? (Like whatsapp web client for example)

does it support websocket?
