  • Multiple communications can happen in parallel (or more specifically, concurrently as we can't process two (or more) conversations at the same time)
  • Easy to log/record for retrieval

  • Cannot participate in conversation is processing at a later time

  • Possibility to delay processing
  • Easy to log/record for retrieval

  • Cannot participate in conversation is processing at a later time
  • Slower than reading

  • Less parallel communication channel(s), it is difficult to have multiple communications at the same time
