"I wouldn't try and compete in the messaging space as it is saturated" I don't think so. I think there's lots of room in enterprise chat space for differentiated products... it's not just slack or hipchat. E.g., a on-premise hosted chat with actual native clients for OSX, Windows, iOS, and Android would find buyers. IRC has traditionally been the solution for this but IRC doesn't have a uniform mobile client experience and the backend integrations (notifications for github, gitlab, bug tracking systems etc. etc.) are not as rich and diverse as slack/hipchat.
