I used to use every Instant Messenger and liked the idea of a program that put them all into one place. I have tried Trillian many times only to go back to MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, etc. While it might save time going from each one to update your online statuses, what other reason do you have for using an all-in-one program?
A lot of people use Trillian, but I don’t know why anymore. I recently tried it again to see how it performs and if it had any newer features that I might like, and it started up very slowly! I immediately uninstalled it. It had started up slower than it takes Windows to load and everything else that starts up with it. Anyone have a similar experience with Trillian?
Trillian used to be faster (on a slower computer), but I think with more features it has slowed it down some. I am looking forward to seeing what Cerulean Studios does with the new Trillian Astra.
Anyone looking for an alternative to Trillian, here are a couple:
Sorry to hear that Trillian performed slowly for you. I’m eagerly awaiting Trillian Astra as it looks to be one hell of a program if it ever sees the light of day
I can’t wait for Trillian Astra and hope they will send me an invite to try it out. I hope it’s not a beta that takes forever to go public!
