    It's definitely worth considering Jive for the type of application we've developed i.e. a central shared repository for all employees to host and discuss information. I can't say I have ever used a superior tool, but they may exist. I'm just not sure I would want to use it exclusively for file hosting, though. It does integrate with various other tools, so perhaps it would be fine if used in conjunction with another tool for that purpose.

    I used Mattermost on a full remote company and it perfectly suited our collaboration and communication culture. The company dealt with privileged and personal information of a huge data base of users, so it was a significant advantage for our need to comply with industry regulations.

    Pros
    Aurea
    • Individual design
    • Presence of Russian language (localization can be independently established)
    • You can configure several information tapes with different themes. One for work, the second for communication
    • A newly-arrived network user immediately receives a prepared block for beginners. After completing several game tasks, the user will receive the basics of using Jive.
    • There is a template for each scenario. There is even a template for planning R&D, and there are more than twenty of them.
    • Integrates with MS Office, Google Drive, Google Docs
    • There are all platforms (even Winphone and blackberry)
    • You can create forum threads

    • Easy intergration to our main CRM (Monday.com)
    • I'm not techy myself but I have seen a lot of our previous integrations in Slack transferred over to Mattermost so that's fun
    • The desktop and phone app (android) works well enough. I haven't tried it on the Apple ecosystem yet.

    Cons
    Aurea
    • Search functionality is very weak
    • The information architecture and taxonomy doesnt allow for easy discoverability of content
    • It's hard to navigate the and find spaces/groups that I already know about
    • The main profile/interface does not allow easy access to key tasks or common tasks.

    • Some of the features in paid plans could be free, however, they have much offered in free plan (self-hosted)
    • The Desktop App we use on windows has some bugs, like when Mattermost is down and comes back up, the app needs restart

    There are always external factors that can impact this decision but currently, the Jive platform is maintaining its lead in the market place in this area. If the innovation in this space by Jive continues, then this number will remain high. Integration with other systems and adaptability to changes in the market or in client needs will also make this decision hard to predict more then 6 months into the future

    Mattermost has been an excellent tool for our business, allowing for a very cost-effective means of communicating, collaborating, and sharing project and business documentation and resources. The free community edition allows for simple installation on existing cloud server resources which results in significantly lower recurring costs compared to the competition

    Usability
    Aurea
    It was harder to use that expected. The admin needs to be code savvy to truly customize the system. And users need to trained on the system and the setup. Trainings and monitoring need to continue to enforce use.

    Since it helps track all the things at one place and the bots can be made which helps to automate many tasks. We use it in our security incident tracking in which there are pre defined tasks like adding people, creating groups, launching bots. All these things make the work easier and oraganized

    Reliability and Availability

    Uptime was OK. But there was one day that the system crashed for a whole day. Our company was unable to operate. And all the plugins to word/excel froze causing those systems to freeze.

    Jive posted a statement to the media saying all customers were up, but we were not.

    They did an OK job when I needed them. Except for the one day the system went down. Jive pointed the finger at the hosting company, and the hosting company pointed the finger at Jive. No reliable information came to us.

    We have not had to contact support for Mattermost ever. All that we have needed has been available in the documentation or website. One of our DevOps team members set it up in a couple of hours. The whole team was using Mattermost that same day. No support needed.

    Jive online training is there. It is OK/average. I feel some other companies are doing better. It is not a piece that is required to have a successfully implementation, but it could be useful to improve it

    If I did this over, I would hire out the implementation. They know the best practices and could have guided us to make an easier to use setup.

    We had a Google phone number set up before and Jive was a lot better option than that. It is more consistent and can be configured much easier and with more advanced settings. Additionally, based on the pricing as well as working with the rep on our account, it was a perfect option for us

    I feel slack is a bit more difficult to use overall than Mattermost. Mattermost makes the tasks of communicating across departments and team members easier, as well as giving the ability to share information via hyper links, attachments, and other forms of communication among every body here. Also, easier user interface

    Return on Investment
    Aurea
    • reduce email traffic
    • reduce amount of files/documents scattered & lost across shared drives
    • increased discovery, awareness and interaction of historically more separated individuals & team functions across the organisation
    • from an IT perspective, we've benefited from improved IT operations (e.g. troubleshooting info shared and easily searched/found with all team members - such that even junior team members can solve technical problems outside of business hours, lessening the burden for standby/call-in for more senior team members)

    • real-time communication and collaboration has improved the orgs ability to address issues and implement changes rapidly.
    • Accelerated decision-making processes, reducing the time required for team approvals and discussions which used to be in back and forth emails.
