What do you like best about Mattermost?

Mattermost has made my life easier. That's because I could use this service to bring my team closer and make projects more effective with my main chat tool. Its messaging service offers the possibility to create special groups, such as public or private groups, to communicate with people, and its main system tool - Chat, because I like it, does a good job to improve communication and achieve very visible results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mattermost?

The only big problem is that the calendar service is down, so I have to add users and sometimes the numbers disappear or users get bored while using the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mattermost:

The main communication tool is excellent, I can't complain about the program and the service is economical like no other, so I recommend it. I'm in a group and I work with permanently, so I recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mattermost solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used to use email to exchange important information, documents and images between teams, but the responses were not very fast and I had to open a message to get a response, so I decided to look for another system and Mattermost worked excellently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mattermost?

It's awesome the software can be customized to suit your needs. For example, as the company for which I worked started to evolve, we needed software application that was able to keep up with that growth and monitor internal communication until then. It suits the requirement almost entirely. It is a tool for chatting, managing things quickly, keeping the staff together and interacting with peers when needed.

What do you dislike about Mattermost?

Typically file sharing is a little counter intuitive, because many customers prefer dragging down and dropping downloads instead of selecting them in File Explorer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mattermost?

Because it has to be hosted by your company, compared to Slack which is in the cloud, it will come with some issues. There are also some functionalities not available, and it feels like its lacking when you are coming from Slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pinging your colleagues quickly is great with Mattermost. You can also share reactions and feel like a team even though you aren't together physically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mattermost?

Mattermost gives you the ability to communicate with my team members and to place a selected amount of information/files, the only limitation for us is our server drive. Mattermost is a good choice for us because of its privacy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The limits of its for private channels. Often projects require a bit of confidentiality along with other private channels should be removed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mattermost?

Mattermost is highly extensible. Since it is self-hosted and open source, there are a number of integrations possible that are not possible with Slack. A major one I've enjoyed is really *native* LaTeX support. Slack and Discord have bots to do TeXify messages, but it's a bit annoying that they always appear separately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mattermost?

Mattermost has no support for voice or video chat of any kind. You do have to host the server yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mattermost solving and how is that benefiting you?

Good communication, completely on-par with Slack, for free. Good web app, native desktop apps, and mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mattermost?

Mattermost is a straight forward messaging system with no extra bloat.I like that I can use the desktop application, or log in through a web browser. I'm able to create Public Channels (think chatrooms), Private Channels, and do Direct Messaging. Creating a new group is as simple as clicking on a plus sign and adding more users.

I'm also able to setup different servers, and have them available as tabs across the top of my window. The development team here integrated Mattermost with Jira and our Wiki, so we have some bots that inform us deployment updates and issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mattermost?

Not much to dislike with this application. I could complain that there aren't enough added features, but in my opinion that would just add too much bloat to a simple messaging system. I can send files easily and do quick chats with my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mattermost:

If you're looking for a simple straightforward messaging tool then you can't go wrong with Mattermost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mattermost solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm able to communicate with my development team and keep track of how software deployments are going with the Jira integration. When we do software deployments we have a bot then tracks whether deployments are successful or have failed, and with Jira integration we can see exactly which tickets are included in each deployment. This makes it much easier for us to keep track of new updates to our production server, and jump on any failed deployments as soon as it happens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
