We use LINE here in Thailand for business and personal - more than any other chat app. If you don't have LINE, you really can't communicate very well in Thailand. But their technology sucks. They don't have typing indicators. Vietnam, Japan, Thailand are separate fiefdoms, there are certain things you can't do across countries. To open a business account you have to pay a secondary firm in Thailand who barely has anything to do with LINE. The whole UI is super-clunky and has many bugs. We get the feeling that they do not really care about the product itself. They keep adding lots of features for business that don't really work. But everyone here uses it, so you really have to get on board.
