BBM Enterprise

BlackBerry Limited

About this app

BBM® Enterprise is a secure mobile, cross-platform, messaging and collaboration tool. It provides the same user- friendly experience that’s earned BBM millions of fans worldwide – with the end-to-end security enterprise needs.

BBM Enterprise allows users to take advantage of the speed, reliability and privacy of BBM for faster communication, collaboration and decision making while providing security conscious organizations enhanced security over corporate data.
BBM Enterprise is the ideal business communication tool because it is mobile and immediate. Unlike enterprise IM tools that were originally designed for use on the desktop, BBM Enterprise offers a truly mobile experience, on a variety of devices.
With BBM Enterprise, you only need one app to cover your mobile messaging and collaboration needs. Users know when their colleagues have received and read messages, so they can collaborate with confidence, in real-time. One-to-one chats, group discussions and file sharing all happen with the protection required by security-focused organizations – and all with an immediacy and accountability that’s hard to achieve through any other communication channel.

BBM Enterprise uses a FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic library and leverages BlackBerry’s secure infrastructure, trusted by security-conscious and regulated organizations around the world, to protect data while it’s in transit and at rest.  All the added security offered by BBM Enterprise happens in the background, so there’s no impact on the BBM user experience.

Ratings and reviews

Definitely not as good as consumer BBM in terms of UI/UE... The only perks of Enterprise are no ads and dark mode. Other than that I miss the old smilies, PING feature, screen shot capability, gif functionality and overall layout/interface of the consumer app. Enterprise doesn't let you PING, send gifs or screen shot anything? Very odd. I hope this app is improved because I really want to stick with it long term.

A nice app. I don't like having the subscription service (even though it was free for one year) as it was a pain to sign up for. I would like to see some changes in the app, maybe off line messaging and the BBM in the notification bar for easy access. I had no friends that were subscribed or wanted to join the service.

I did love BBM and was happy that BBMe is still functioning. However, I miss the Spirit ringtones (the new Blackberry phones don't have them). Instant messaging works okay, messaging is okay. Video calls do not work very well in hilly areas but I guess it's probably same with other APPs so not a biggie for me. Can we have the Spirit ringtone on the Blackberry Key phones when you update next?
