The history of UniMessenger: the beginning

The history of UniMessenger: the beginning

We understand it's not easy to tell real reviews from fake ones. Your trust matters to us, so we're sharing something that can't be faked — facts from the history of UniMessenger.

In this article

The UniMessenger story began in 2018, when the program was launched on Skladchik, a site that offers favorable terms for group purchases of info products.

What the first version looked like

In its first release, UniMessenger had minimal functionality: the program let you send broadcasts using an Android emulator or the WhatsApp web version in a browser.

And here is what that version of the program looked like:

What a group-buy is and how it came together for UniMessenger

To set up a group-buy, you need to present your info product following all the rules: post a description, attach photo and video evidence. You also need to submit the product itself for verification, performed by members of the Skladchik club. They write reviews to a defined format and give their verdict on whether the product matches its advertised capabilities. That's why group-buy participants can be confident they will receive exactly what they pay for.

UniMessenger was reviewed by five verifiers: four official and one unofficial. The reviewers had different levels of broadcast experience (in WhatsApp specifically and in messaging in general), but all of them approved running a group-buy for UniMessenger.

You can also read these reviews in the discussions of the group-buy.

The results of the group-buy

What speaks to the results better than positive reviews? The first group-buy went successfully, confirming demand for our WhatsApp broadcasting product and giving us a push for further development.

After the group-buy, not one of the 20 participants left a negative review. You can also read those reviews under the description of the group-buy.

The launch on Skladchik was an important step for UniMessenger in building a reputation as a reliable program for WhatsApp messaging.

This is a part of our story that can't be faked. Of course, a lot has changed since 2018 — in particular, WhatsApp has changed its algorithms and made broadcasting harder. But UniMessenger keeps evolving and solves the problems as they appear.

We're proud that our product has stood the test of time and earned user recognition. Your feedback helps us get better and keep growing.
