After a long delay the Microsoft Garage team has brought theirĀ Kaizala chat app to Windows 10 phones and PCs.

The productivity-focussed appĀ helps you get your work done by tracking bills, jobs, location and more. Kaizala tries to bring all your communication – within your team, with partners and customers – to one place. You can track your resources (people, time, and money) – as simple as sending an ‘action’ in your chat, organize your team as you want – in one chat or start a new chat for each project/team and get work done by extracting value from your conversations.
