This article explains how to approach the conversation in a way that feels professional, well-prepared, and aligned with your employer’s goals.

We’ve seen increasing interest in our ESS Community distribution from those looking for a free-use replacement of Mattermost Entry. Back in October 2025, Mattermost announced limitations as from Mattermost v11 for both of its free-use tiers (Mattermost Team Edition and Mattermost Entry). The chat history limitation of 10,000 messages for Mattermost Entry has caused a lot of frustration, especially considering it’s a self-hosted solution.

Digital transformation is already happening every day. Banks, financial institutions, and insurance companies are under pressure to move faster. Customers expect instant responses. Teams expect smooth collaboration. Regulators expect strong data protection. So, how can BFSI organizations keep up? One important part of this transformation is how people communicate.
