Hi
Do you know if Dentally have any plans to improve the instant messaging feature.
We use this a lot in our practice and we miss the feature that enabled us to message a group of people at the same time ie, messaging both receptionists at once.
Also, the aesthetics look a little clumsy as one of our clinicians has a long name and her name doesnt fit correctly therefore doesnt show how many messages outstanding form her
Hi 
Thank you for sharing this! It’s really useful feedback, especially knowing how much your team relies on the messaging feature day to day.
So, from what I can see, there aren’t any immediate updates planned specifically for messaging groups or the layout quirks you’ve mentioned (like with long names), but we do have some broader UI and UX improvements scheduled across the product in 2025, so fingers crossed that messaging will benefit from that work too.
That said, I’ll do a bit more digging to see if there are any internal updates or requests that haven’t yet made it onto our radar and I’ll update the thread if I find anything useful to share!
And if anyone else in the community has thoughts on this, feel free to jump in and share 
Yes, messaging to groups of more than one users is very helpful if possible

A group message to all for emergency purposes would be useful also.
We agree with the OP’s comments re group messaging. We relied on this feature heavily while using Exact and would love to see the updates in Dentally.
I believe this has been mentioned on another post - group messaging would be super helpful. Our dentists regularly need to message reception but there are 3 of us. Currently they are having to copy and paste their message.
