Social network app Kaizala, which has been developed by the Microsoft Garage Team, is helping upwards of 1,000 private and government businesses in India streamline growth and improve workplace productivity., reports The Financial Express.
“Kaizala, with Cloud scale and enterprise security, is enabling organisations to achieve more by empowering employees, engaging customers and enhancing workplace productivity. We are delighted with the rapid adoption in just over a year,” said President, Microsoft India, Anant Maheshwari.
The app enables people to be connected in a group, create groups within groups and create hierarchy-based access in a group. Microsoft has also announced new features in Kaizala, such as “Persistent Chat” and “Me Chat” along with a video and voice calling web app.
“Kaizala is a chat-based communication and data management tool. It is an enterprise-ready, compliant and secure chat app, offering organisations an easy and simple way to share data for insightful decision-making and gives employees an easy-to-use solution for efficient collaboration and improved productivity,” said Rajiv Kumar, corporate vice-president, Microsoft.
“Microsoft Kaizala serves as an Electronic Medical Record, with no attendant cost, and the patient’s data is shared across the group of treating doctors and nurses,” said Founder and Chairman, Narayana Health, Dr Devi Shetty, who is one of the first to adopt the app. “All group members monitor a patient’s treatment and make interventions in real-time,” he added.
Microsoft enabled digital payments on the app in India, earlier this year. The UPI payment integration on the app works with banks that are already participating in UPI.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
