  > I'm not too interested in a "chat vs email" sort of discussion, just "If you've decided you want chat, which products are worth looking into?" There are a lot of hybrid products though that either integrate chat into email, or make products that feel like email but are really chat. Zulip looks like it has some overlap with the latter category. Redkix, which just got bought by Facebook today and shut down, is also in that category. That's actually a more interesting story than the Slack acquisition imho.

  We've used Mattermost for a small amount of time and then migrated to Zulip (company of about 50 people). Zulip's threading model is what sets it apart. It might take sometime to get used to but once you do you don't want to use anything else. Mattermost is primarily a Slack clone while Zulip is its own category. I think Slack style chat works best if everyone is working on the same thing; like a 5 man startup. However with more people working on all kinds of different things Zulip's model works better.

  My company has used Zulip, Slack, Mattermost and tried Ryver as well. Zulip has been by far our favorite. I listed some of my favorite features in the parent thread.
