Rocket.Chat – Bewertungsseite 3

Vorteile

RocketChat is probably one of the best alternative to slack, it offers both the long-term support of open-source and the fast adoption cycle of a commercial cloud based offer.

Nachteile

Per-user pricing model is still to high for a chat, and limitation of push notifications is a problem for mobile user support. Another pricing model would be appreciated.

Vorteile

Its free to use
its also great for sharing files
you get emails for all rocket messages, makes it easy to catch missed messages
its open source
Its way better than sending emails to colleagues
you can host it in your own server

Nachteile

When its running in the background the desktop app doesn't open when you open using the shortcut icon to open it.
there is nothing to hate about this app

Vorteile

Possibility of integration with several services and allows to install in own server of the company.

Nachteile

Because it is an open source project, it has some bugs.

Vorteile

Its a great tool we often use it in our organisation to communicate with our Colleagues about work to pass any information.Its quite secure way of communication. We can go back to the previous chats to get any past information.We can make groups and pass the same information to all the members in the group.

Nachteile

Can add some more features would be better.

Vorteile

It's a familiar layout as it's similar to Slack. You can easily create channels and chat to team members. Uploading custom emoji is always fun, and it works well on Rocket.Chat.

Nachteile

It just doesn't feel as streamlined and fast as Slack, and I'm not a huge fan of the notification sounds included.

Vorteile

Very impressed with the features, ease of use and UI design.

Nachteile

Would prefer to have more control over some admin features on the hosted version.

Vorteile

It is cheap, lot of plugins. Good sites with documentation. You may install it into your own cloud/server

Nachteile

The interface is not user-friendly. No threads support as in Slack. Pricing for the app is not reasonable

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen

Vorteile

Rocket.chat is a very powerful tool in our company. We have dozens of chatbots and chatOps that helps our teams on daily work.

Nachteile

Rocket.chat needs an improvement on temporary chat between 3 or more people. Every time you need to create a new room.

Vorteile

Polished solution that gave us a quick replacement to Slack. No more 10k message limitation pruning old useful conversation/fixes in a tech setting.

Nachteile

When the world seems to be using Slack and one room moves to Rocket.Chat, it just means another client/tab to have open. I can't fault them for that... just hoping the rest of the world moves over too. Ha!

Vorteile

If you're building your company and don't want to spend money for chat softwares, Rocket is one of the bests !
It's very beautiful and UX is almost the same as Slack or Discord
You'll see many features to help you chat with your teams

Nachteile

Give the installation work to developers, or else you'll have to pay for the cloud version

Vorteile

It is free to use and has now replace all other way to communicate in my projet. All basic feature are available: channel, groups, one to one chat etc...

Nachteile

Sometime the notification comes with delays, I don't know if this setting is due to Rocket.Chat or my browser/OS.

Vorteile

It helps you see which employees are on line and working and available for contact.

Nachteile

Have to reload sometimes, minor technical issues.

Vorteile

With Rocket.Chat we were able to continue our team internal discussion without fear of losing messages due to account limitations. Rocket.Chat pricing made this move much easier. Great tool for start-up teams.

Nachteile

There's very little to not like about it. It seems to have most, if not all, of the same functionality as Slack and at a fraction of the cost.

Vorteile

Clean user interface with more advanced features. Simple & easy to use.

Nachteile

Not easy to configure & host Rocket.Chat on-premises.

Vorteile

First time, I heard about this software when we have to organize a virtual conference at a large scale, to connect people across world, is so easy and integration on the other hand works smoothly. Easy to control, no such ads available in between. Can create different channel and groups for specific work place.

Nachteile

I think it's basic theme, it just so simple, for a new person it's not that catchy or attractive than then the other competitive application available in the market.

Vorteile

Been looking for an alternative to Slack that is more customizable. Rocket Chat seems viable for small businesses that

Nachteile

Ultimately found that it was missing some features that we had in slack that our users really seemed to miss. Wish there was a cheaper plan for even small businesses, like 10 people or less.

Vorteile

It has some great features and it's great that you have so much control over the software as administrator.

Nachteile

It was a bit more complex to setup and tweak the user roles but it's also good that they offer so much options.

Vorteile

The Rocket chat is an easy going platform to maintain contact with your colleagues

Nachteile

Sometimes it's bug out and the messages or notifications do not respond

Vorteile

You can easily message people in your company. I can easily search by name of who I want to talk to and send messages to them even if they are offline.

Nachteile

I have to have rocket chat open to get messages. If i'm out of it I don't get them. It'll send the message to my email but I don't always check that. I have not found a phone app to go with it so I can respond immediately.

Vorteile

Low cost, option to self-host, open-source, active development, generally fast. Cloud option was an easy setup. Overall, it works.

Nachteile

It needs polish. There are lots of little things that cause friction: they're annoying or confusing. For instance, aliases are case-sensitive (gets my team constantly). Alias completion has a very slight delay which makes it hard to use. I can't set the order of my groups and direct messages on the left pane. The notification options are confusing and difficult to use.

Vorteile

We really like the easiness of the product, it allows almost any type of modern communication like #slack can do in the cloud, Rocket.Chat is located on your servers inside your company. For no-cloud enterprise, this is the perfect fit !

Nachteile

It needs more extension. So far the app list is not very long, but I'm pretty sure this will come. Anyway, the existing list is already great.

Vorteile

It is easy to connect with people across the world.

Nachteile

No Cons found for this software and useful for everyone

Vorteile

The great thing about this product vs it's competitors such as SLACK is that it is far cheaper, with close to the same functionality as you would expect with the other guys. You can either communicate with people in groups, or in a private channel

Nachteile

It does lack some functionality such as extensions that are shared with the competitors. Also an option to save parts of a chat would be helpful

Vorteile

1. Easy managing
2. Tagging and notification to users
3. Let the user know number of unread messages

Nachteile

1. Not that much good UI
2. File type upload restriction

Vorteile

the best part is that since the product is open source it is highly customizable. Mostly aligns with what slack can do for you, some new features are needed to make it happen. Also nearly free if you can use it right. Would recommend for startups and other tech teams which are less than 10-15 members

Nachteile

More integrations are required to make this completely usable. Also with hangouts chat now available the product needs better differentiation in terms of the value proposition

Vorteile

It functions beautifully as a simple speech app.

Nachteile

It looks like a sleazy internet cafe application. You cannot access detailed information about people.

Vorteile

We love that there is an on-premise option for security. The chat features are intuitive and easy to use.

Nachteile

Configuring the server was a bit of an issue, but once we followed the documentation it and a bit of help from support we got it up and going.

Vorteile

Full white label product, and Open Source solution completely separate from restrictions from US

Nachteile

It doesn't has dark mode, a feature that all modern software must have.

Vorteile

This is a great tool for our small company. Great features like setting up channels.

Nachteile

Challenges with authentication at times.

Vorteile

Free and opensource, faster bug-fix community

Nachteile

At last turn on on direct, but where is webrtc for private group?

Vorteile

Free. Easy to use. Good collaboration tool.

Nachteile

Could use some love on the features side. The app isn't great - web version is better.

Vorteile

So far Rocket.Chat is pretty good. It’s actually easy to use, everyone can chat at once, it’ll show what messages that has been unread. And what has been place in the chat that day.

Nachteile

It’s doesn’t really make a loud sound notifying when a direct message is available, other than that it’s fine.

Vorteile

It is self hosted, wich means it runs on your own infrastructure.
It is easy to use.

Nachteile

I have not found any cons. It is a great Software.

Vorteile

Love that you can set up channels and configure admins and users. It works great and can be locally hosted and tied in to workgroup usernames.

Nachteile

None does what we need it for and we will keep it

Vorteile

excellent options for customization that allows for any company to personalize their chat performance.

Nachteile

the changes that you would want to make are difficult to test beyond trial and error style of changes. it is not obvious which sections apply to which sections when you mess around with the font/color/style/formatting. The update for the rocket chat actually crashed my program on my windows 10 system and i had to downgrade back to an earlier version to get it to work again

Vorteile

I can do everything that i want to do. It is very easy to customize and adapt for your need. They also have good support for your problems and they are very fast to answer you.

Nachteile

There are few bugs, but it is not in the core business. It happens in some features which is not so important for users.

Vorteile

The software itself is fine. It's the false advertising that pisses me off. So that's all I wanted to say.

Nachteile

They advertise as FREE, OPEN SOURCE. When in fact there is a 7 day free trial and the service is not anywhere near free.

Vorteile

Rocket.chat is open source and you can run it yourself. Their feature list is almost on par with competitors like Slack.

Nachteile

Setting up your own Rocket.chat can be a headache and could be better to just use free Slack or paid Slack (if you need enterprise control)

Vorteile

Friendly designed interface and this tool supports LDAP. Funny and creative emojis that helps in delivering the messages in a more innovative manner.

Nachteile

At times the applications is slow to respond. When we access the application from the start menu, it does not come up directly, it lies hidden on the bottom right corner silently.

Vorteile

Many ways how you can deploy this product.
Great comunity around Rocket.chat and 15k Github stars.
This chat provides also livechat - ideal for live support on your website.

Nachteile

This product has lots of bugs - 2,2k issues on Github
Screen mirroring functionality does not work properly.
The Docs are not complete for some features.

Vorteile

I like the simplicity of this app. It is very easy to use and implement, providing real-time communication.

Nachteile

Does not work with Sharepoint. I have small issues with previewing Amazon.

Vorteile

After a lot of exploring we found Rocket.Chat, it's open-source, also free and easy to setup. Rocket.Chat can be integrated easily.

Nachteile

Documentation is not quite good. If you want to use the Rocket.Chat marketplace, you have to go to a paid plan.

Vorteile

Easy to use for internal communication, whether it's one on one, groups, teams, or company wide. It works well and gets the job done.

Nachteile

We had a really hard time getting the notifications to work and the app needs to be restarted frequently.

Vorteile

It allows several forms of deployment, among that one-clicl-free-heroku deployment that I like most

Nachteile

It has a simplistic interface and complicated internal adjustment and configuration structure

Vorteile

Emphasis on security/encryption
Can be run on client server

Nachteile

There really wasn't anything I didn't like.

Vorteile

Provide everything that I need.
Cheaper than Slack
Custom integration with other services

Nachteile

Sometimes preview (e.g., amazon) does not work
Searching (especially with Japanese) is really bad

Vorteile

It is open, can be altered to your needs and not restrictive.

Nachteile

Lack of video tutorials with different server side languages.

Vorteile

This software has made my job so much easier to handle with chatting with customers and clients. I currently use this program to do troubleshoot with customers and it has worked very nicely in providing me great automated system built in and quick responses for my customers/clients.

Nachteile

The least thing I like about it is that it can be a little more vibrant , its a bit plain jane but that's just me. I do value good visuals.

Vorteile

Fast and simple, but powerfull. Easy to configure, has got everything needs the online chat software with some extra features :)

Nachteile

Sometimes notifications about new messages do not work

Vorteile

I liked the support that was given by the Rocket Chat team to answer all of our End Users questions to make the transition of the licenses seamless.

Nachteile

The initial license process was a little confusing and would have been really confusing if the team didn't do a conference call to clarify questions.
