    Discord works phenomenally if you want a chat platform that is free, quick to set up, and very flexible in the ways you can start using it. It doesn't require a complex set of logins for different servers and confusion about adding new members, or tough pricing right out of the gate. If you prefer to view full conversations all in one place without them "splintering" off into branches that are missed, Discord works great for this. All in all, Discord is great for startup companies or lean working companies, but it does not lend itself as well for larger, traditional "corporate" enterprises.

    Well suited to organization starting their journey of design system creation. It provides a ready to go foundation that requires minimum effort to set up and get going. It may be limited if scaling into thousands of design elements and multiple users - we have not tried at scale of more that 10's of users.

    Pros
    Discord
    • One to many Communications to ensure that we can quickly get messages out when we have to.
    • Quick polling of questions and issues
    • The ability to gate channels so we can focus on folks that we know are stakeholders gives them an added feeling of belonging and that they have a say in the direction of projects.

    Cons
    Discord
    • Better volume balancing between members on a call.
    • More customizability of the notification sound for each server. It would be nice to set each of my important servers with a different notification sound.
    • More expansive note section when you view another user's profile. I'd like to be able to contain more information there in a more organized way.

    • I believe having an agency option would be great so that one could manage and build multiple brands for multiple clients.
    • Having sections for voice and personality would be great.
    • The ability to export a brand document to a .PDF to share with partners.

    It just works, and works well. Very rarely does anything go wrong, and I can't remember the last outage (sure there's been some but very rare and not something I even think about or worry about). Desktop clients, web access, mobile clients - the lot. Very happy with our easy it is to use.

    There is plenty of online documentation and knowledge base articles. As well as having an open API to be able to tie it into other products makes it a really viable solution for any business. I have never had to contact support, any questions which I have need answered can be found in the documentation,

    I like Slack for more professional settings, but Discord is excellent for casual groups, especially when a few people do not have iPhones. They're very similar, but I think there are a lot of Discord features I don't take advantage of, mainly because there seems to be so much in the sidebar that overwhelms me a bit.

    We've invested time building our own hosted interface, and recently begun exploring Figma for design system management too. The benefit of Frontify is it's easy public access. The downfall is integration with other systems required in the UX, Design, Product Management, and Development processes - something Figma supports well.

    • Discord has allowed us to connect to students when typical email & text would not work.
    • Discord has allowed easy creation and communication for small group leaders and their students.
    • Discord is free and so many students have access to it.

    • Overall value depends on internal federation of usage
