I haven't tested the program for portability but I'm mostly suggesting people avoid it as the program uses 295 megs across two processes (Hipchat.exe and QtWebEngineProcess.exe) and perpetually uses 1-3% of my processor even when idle.
For reference both Skype for Business (Lync) and regular Skype take up just under 80 megs. Neither uses that kind of processor power.
Alternatives: Since (at least my version) of the program will send you an email when someone tries to contact you offline, I actually disable the program and rely on my email to know when to enable the software. There's also a web client.
(Analysis done on a 2.4 ghz i5 with (thankfully) 8 gigs RAM. Win7x64 is installed.)
