One I could use wit my phone, one I can go offline with after work, one that doesn't require me to share my private phone number, one that allows my employers company to supply all employees with without having to pay extra for each account. That's great your employer was open to the idea:)

    I don’t even have the phone number of most of my contacts, some don’t even have a phone number, so I’m glad I don’t have to use Signal for those either. ^^

    I’m not even sure how that’d work?

    It wouldn't. You need a phone number for Signal (though it doesn't have to be one associated with the device you install on... e.g. you can use a VoIP number or landline)

    LPS, yes ... there was a demand for the features (offline when not at work, using your own device, no phone number reqired) within the company and XMPP was the solution. - It's still in beta with a limeted number of people testing it, but I think it will become official within the year.
