Ugh... Hipchat. Relatively straightforward things that they don't seem to be able to address:
You can't chat with more than 1 person without creating a private room. Slack makes this effortless. It's been on Atlassian's radar for almost 1.5 years with no movement:
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Hipchat-questions/chat-with-two-or-more-people-without-to-use-room/qaq-p/125060 https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Hipchat-questions/chat-wi...
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/HCPUB-431 https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/HCPUB-431
And when you're in a private chat with someone, the jumping text you see when the person you're chatting with is typing. Over 1.5 years and they can't fix that? It's horribly distracting and just kinda sucks.

Anyways, the whole thing feels dead and is very clearly a low priority for Atlassian.

- vesak 9y agoYou guys oughta think about pricing. We just moved, a bit reluctantly, to Microsoft Teams (essentially free because existing MS subscription) because even Hipchat was way too expensive. Does Stride really need to be $36/user/year, and double that if we need SAML?
- robotmay 9y agoAtlassian's pricing is a massive pain in the arse if you're neither a small nor a big business. There's a perfect pain point in the middle of their pricing brackets where you jump from $10 per month for 3 users, to $20 per user as soon as you add a 4th (Helpdesk as an example there).
- chrisco255 9y agoThat's half the price of Slack.
- vesak 9y agoSlack's pricing is absurd.
