Uber, Samsung, United States Armed Forces, TADHack, W3F, and UpCloud - World’s leading companies are using either Mattermost, Riot, or Matrix to give their teams the ‘best-ever’ virtual workplace experience.
You’re leading a peace-keeping mission and simultaneously safeguarding your nation against the enemies. It’s a multi-state effort, that involves an active contribution of your colleagues from different departments, some working next door, and some in remote areas. As a leader, there is a dire need for you to maintain an active collaboration and real-time data sharing with all the team members.
Albeit knowing the risk, being a highly regulated Government body, do you still risk to host your sensitive data over the public cloud? It must be a thinkable idea for small and medium-sized businesses to migrate or host their information over SaaS-based applications or on cloud servers. But, the amount of damage that is irrevocable could go unthinkable and unimaginable for data-sensitive enterprises like Governments, Defence Agencies, Medical, Banking, and Large businesses.
You need a platform to host your enterprise work conversations! Indeed that’s the only way you bring your teams together to exchange work ideas and discuss more work. Making your teams rely on personal chat applications at your workplace is no fun when you seriously look for productive outcomes from them. Instead, give them the best team chat software like Slack, Troop Messenger, Flock, Microsoft Teams, Mattermost, etc., to stay informed and monitored about all the work routines and updates.
In 2016, Uber made an unexpected move and left Slack for Mattermost. The ridesharing company needed an enterprise-grade collaboration tool which Slack couldn’t scale. When Uber decided to create its messaging solution on Mattermost, both companies collaborated to implement an upgrade of Mattermost platform to meet Uber’s needs. Akamai, the world’s leading content delivery network service provider, has been using Zulip for remote collaboration with employees for many years.
In 2011, Microsoft acquired Skype for $8.5 billion and turned it into a terrific program for voice and video communication and a winning investment. In 2018, Slack signed a contract with AWS to spend at least $250 million a year for five years to enrich the Slack platform and take the ‘business collaboration software market’ by storm.
Technological advancements have the uncanny strength of pushing over top-performing apps down the hill. Innovation brings in better utilities for the benefit of the user community. Skype seems to be weathering that for quite some time before being on the way out, almost.
