I’ve been in three companies now with hipchat as the main messaging tool and it is complete and utter garbage. Super unreliable, sucks on iOS, and in general the latency is super long for messages. What is going on here? I hear that atlassian doesnt even use hipchat internally. Is this true? I hear atlassian uses stride?
slack notifications on ios is also pretty hit or miss
Because they charge less than Slack I think
Slack has better feature, but I do believe HipChat is more reliable. HipChat can be on premises. Slack have to be hosted.
Hipchat has been the opposite of reliable for us. Good point about self hosting, though
Historically that’s been true of HipChat but performance metrics were a focus for a while recently and stuff like uptime went from pretty embarrassing to three 9s.
Slack was deemed a security risk at past companies so we never used it.
What you use?
And you can't edit your own message for more than 1 minute.
When is slack launching on prem@Slack?
Check out Stride
Because it's cheap
So cheap it’s free
Lol.. know your products first? https://www.atlassian.com/software/hipchat/pricing
If it’s anything like the git tools in bitbucket...
Bitbucket is the worst
Because it’s hip. Might I recommend Slack, even Chime is better
