Mettermost messenger - an open source slack alternative
Slack has become one of the most popular tools for correspondence and management of projects within teams and organizations. The messenger is convenient, but has a number of restrictions on the confidentiality of information and export of data archive. The new Mattermost messenger from Gitlab with an open source will take care of the safety of the entire correspondence and guarantees that the data will not fall into the wrong hands.
Mattermost creates a single space for communicating a team with easy search for information and access to all necessary project documents with the possibility of exporting the entire history of correspondence. The messenger can be installed on the organization’s own server.
Like Slack, Mattermost makes it possible to exchange messages and documents, comment on publications, create public and private channels, as well as establish personal notifications for new messages and mentioning the user.
Mattermost allows you to export users from Slack, public channels with a full history of correspondence.
There is an application for both computers and for mobile devices.
