Overall Satisfaction with HipChat

A subset of IT is using HipChat as a proof-of-concept to replace Google Hangouts. Our needs are exceeding the group discussion capabilities of Hangouts and we find the rooms concept quite appealing.
  • Intuitive interface, especially if you're used to Lotus Sametime or Google Talk.
  • Room management provides the right tools for the job.
  • The Ubuntu install could be more friendly - after installing HipChat I received extraneous messages on the next system update.
Comparable feature set without the overhead.
We think the idea of rooms will be very helpful when discussing features or troubleshooting production issues.
