Stride: Simple but Behind the Times

My company used Stride as an organization-wide communication tool. Besides email, it was the easiest way to get in contact with those in other departments without trekking across the company. It was also helpful for those people who do not necessarily feel comfortable reaching out to colleagues they don't know very well face-to-face as they could talk to them without that social anxiety.
  • Directory: an easy way to see who you can contact within the service
  • Simple: not overrun with extra, unnecessary features.
  • Affordable.
  • Private group chats. Rooms can be seen by others in the organization. Some matters do not need to be public.
  • User Experience/Interface. Not intuitive to use.
  • Simple. Missing a lot of features such as emoji, gifs, and connection to other applications that make other programs more fun and useful to use.
Stride works well for those looking for just a communication tool. However, there are a lot of similar programs out there that offer more interesting features without being overwhelming. The simplicity works for and against Stride. Smaller groups would find Stride useful, especially if they are not concerned with the public rooms.

Great Chat Platform, It Will Be Missed

We use Stride as our main chat communication platform across our company. We moved to Stride from Atlasian's previous chat software, HipChat, and were pleased with the upgrades brought to the platform. Stride is easy to use, and works across most platforms. It has many integrations with other software and services.
Unfortunately, Stride is going away as of Feb 15th and all users are being sent over to Slack. Slack, a former competitor, is a solid platform with tons of integrations.
  • Great group messaging with rooms
  • Integrations for other software is very helpful.
  • Finding people in the organisation is very easy with the directory feature
  • Built in Meetings function is so helpful
  • Dark theme would be nice
  • Better integrations to 1 on 1 chats, some software only works in group/room chat
  • Platform is going away in a few months, so letting it run longer would be nice.
For those who have Stride, I would recommend they continue to use it, but it doesn't look like new users can sign up at this point. This is disappointing, because Stride is a solid business communication platform. I would certainly have placed a higher recommendation on Stride, if the platform was not going away on February 15, 2019.

Stride is currently our company's online messaging solution. Since our company is located in multiple states, this allows us to stay in touch and quickly send messages and communicate with our team members. Stride helps us collaborate easier with our team members who aren't physically in our location. Not only it is a tool for communication, it is also great for sharing documents and assets.
  • Stride is great as a chat tool with your team members online.
  • Stride allows us to share documents and files with one another.
  • Sending messages via the giphy integration is slow.
Stride is great tool to communicate with team members online especially if your company is located in multiple areas. You are able to see within the Stride application who is available to chat with. If a team member is unavailable, you are still able to leave a message and Stride will send an email to the user notifying them of a message has been sent.
