   <abstract xml:lang="ru">
    <p>В данном исследовании проводится сравнительный анализ мессенджеров WhatsApp и Telegram с использованием методологического подхода Double Diamond в сочетании с моделью Портера по четырём ключевым измерениям: факторные условия, условия спроса, связанные и поддерживающие отрасли, а также стратегия, структура и конкуренция компании. Для анализа были собраны и обобщены открытые рыночные и платформенные данные (MAU/DAU, ежедневное количество сообщений, бизнес-использование, монетизация). Показатели были нормализованы по шкале 0–100 с использованием метода min–max и агрегированы в составные индексы по каждому измерению.&#13;
Результаты показывают, что WhatsApp лидирует по измерениям спроса и стратегии (масштаб, монетизация, соответствие нормативным требованиям), в то время как Telegram демонстрирует конкурентоспособность по факторным условиям и поддерживающим отраслям (скорость инноваций, открытость для разработчиков). Радарная диаграмма визуализирует полученные показатели, указывая на общее преимущество WhatsApp за счёт сетевых эффектов и ресурсов корпорации Meta, а также на уникальные сильные стороны Telegram, проявляющиеся в открытой экосистеме и быстром внедрении новых функций.</p>

   <trans-abstract xml:lang="en">
    <p>This study compares WhatsApp and Telegram using a Double Diamond/Porter lens across four dimensions, Factor Conditions, Demand Conditions, Related &amp; Supporting Industries, and Firm Strategy &amp; Rivalry. We compile public market and platform data (MAU/DAU, daily messages, business adoption, monetization), normalize indicators to a 0–100 scale via min–max, and aggregate them into dimension composites. Results show WhatsApp leading on Demand and Strategy (scale, monetization, compliance), while Telegram is competitive on Factor Conditions and Supporting Industries (innovation velocity, developer openness). The radar chart visualizes these scores, indicating WhatsApp’s overall advantage due to network effects and Meta-backed resources, and Telegram’s distinct strengths in ecosystem openness and rapid feature iteration. We conclude with managerial implications for WhatsApp and strategic recommendations for Telegram. WhatsApp.</p>
