"The best tool, the safest one and the most flexible"


What do you like about Rocket.Chat?

The fact that we can manage and modify to suit our needs, is one of the most important features.
The second is the fact that we can self-hosted in any platform

What do you dislike about Rocket.Chat?

The Cloud management system doesn't work as it should, and we may say that parts of their UI/UX don't work as it should.

Concrete example the input fields the cursor doesn't blink which makes it impossible for the user to recognize where he/she is.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Rocket.Chat solve?

Internal communication and customer care

"Excellent self-hosted collaboration platform"


What do you like about Rocket.Chat?

With this platform there is not much you can't do. Chat, Live chat, send files, E2E encryption, and more to name the few.

Setup and maintenance are great as well as the support and development process. The team is listening to user feedback and making the best of it for everyone.

Can't recommend this platform enough if you are a small or large team. With RC you will get a great solution that's getting better each day and it's accessible on all desktop and mobile platforms.

What do you dislike about Rocket.Chat?

If I had to choose one thing that would be the mobile application. It maybe looks a bit spartan at the moment but still does the job. Just think that there is room for improvement.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Rocket.Chat solve?

Collaboration, remote sessions, and webhook integration with some other systems to give my users up to date information.
