Mobile Push notifications and real-time chat Using parse or pubnub in an ionic application

I plan to use ionic to create a hybrid chat application. Which one should I use to implement push notification and real-time chat. Either parsing, or pubnub, or both. can i just use pubnub to achieve both functionality?

Ionic has its own alpha push notification service . You must try. Seems pretty intimidating and easy to implement.

Personally, I created a chat application with firebase , and it works out of the box. There is also a complete tutorial on how to implement it.

Parse is a great choice for push, but you can send push notifications using the PubNub JavaScript APIs.

In fact, I am writing several guides for hybrid mobile chat applications (using Cordoba), as well as for push notifications with GCM and APN:

I also wrote the GCM program for Android if you want to check :-)
