  What's wrong with hipchat?
  • methyl 10y ago
    Overall user experience comparing to Slack is much worse.
    • tokenizerrr 10y ago
      It's also a lot cheaper (about a fourth if I recall correctly) and has good integrations with the other Atlassian products.

        > and has good integrations with the other Atlassian products. That's not necessarily a positive.
        • mrweasel 10y ago
          Really... How is integration with something like Jira a negative thing, how could it be? If HipChat locked out all non-Atlassian products, that would be bad, but they don't.
          • dasmoth 10y ago
            It makes arguing against the use of JIRA -- and all the project-management-oriented complexity it seems to bring if you don't keep a tight grip on it -- that little bit harder. Sure, not a negative for everyone, but has the potential to be the thin end of the wedge.

    Nothing really, it's fine. Based on the comments I read on HackerNews however, I think stability is a major issue in the US (US time zone). HipChat has be extremely stable for us, but we're using it when San Francisco is a sleep. So my guess is that Atlassian might have issue scaling.

      Ah, same here, havent noticed any stability issues either.
