The best free multi protocol IM client

by csjjpm Mar 12, 2011 (Read all my 2 reviews)

It may not support audio and video but that is something they are working on. In the mean time it supports all the usual IM protocols including the most common MSN, Yahoo, AIM and ICQ. We use it in work for cross platform communication between Macs and Windows clients as it supports Bonjour/Rendezvous so Mac with iChat can communicate with PCs with Pidgin. We also run secure xmpp server allowing both platforms to communicate. If you want to communicate securely across the internet you can also use a plugin called 'Off the record' OTR.

It works well

I use Pidgin to chat on a secure xmpp network. It is the most robust integrated chat application I have found. I have been on the net using chat services since 1996. Two thumbs up!

Even though it does not have Video or Audio it does have everything else you need. It is light weight and fast. Thanks to the Pidgin Team

It's alright

I can't say many bad things about Pidgin, although, liked earlier version. I don't feel the interface is where it "could" be in any areas but give it time. Either way, it's great to use but not a fav of mine.
