Best Features of Rocket CHat
What do you like best about the product?
The easy integration of Rocket Chat in the Front End Web Application, the scalability of the APIs and the easy use for implementing some features as sending multimedia imformation. Rocket chat offers you the possibility of creating many channels for sending information . You can also add users with different roles to each channels. It is posible to send voice information . One of the main advantages of ROcket Chat for developers is the possibility of customizing the software depending on what he needs. The wide API available in the Rocket Chat server can be used for sending all kind of information to the Rocket Chat server, as multimedia information or text information . Ohter advantage is that it is continously being improved. In fact, there are branches which are always being developed and new features are being implemented in the Rocket Chat server. Finally it has avalilable the iFrameIntegration , Real Time Api and GraphQL API. They also cam be modifien on code
What do you dislike about the product?
In some parts of the Project there is too much documentation and it is not well explained how to use some features as inserting multimedia information and send some messages to the server
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Rocket Chat for sending text and multimedia inofrmation in a server which receives continuously information in a reactive way
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Rocket Chat is a very useful tool for sending text information in a Web application and Multimedia information to all the elements
Competent design and feature set, hard to configure and host with little to no help from Rocket Chat
What do you like best about the product?
It's open source and has a similar feature set to Slack. The ability to self host was what attracted us to the product but ultimately it was more trouble than it was worth.
What do you dislike about the product?
We found many bugs, specifically effecting the memory footprint of the application over time. Additionally certain features were difficult or confusing to configure and in some cases did not work consistently across different deployments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted a chat solution to support the intranet platform that we develop and our intent was to offer Rocket Chat as a managed service alongside our intranet deployments. Unfortunately due to the issues we discovered we decided not to proceed with Rocket Chat and instead are looking to develop our own solution.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Test it thoroughly and be sure that it meets your needs and is something that you can host long term (if you are hosting yourself). Also, make sure you are comfortable with the level of support you receive from RocketChat themselves as we found them to be very hard to communicate with.
Great product!
What do you like best about the product?
Rocket Chat was a more than suitable replacement for Slack in house as that was getting too expensive. The interface is customisable and really sits well in company branding.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things that are very difficult to do in terms of administration, like changing users profile pictures remotely. Not everyone has the knowledge to use the API.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unified company communications and stopped shadow IT with Skype, Slack and Hangouts all being used in different departments. Replaced the lot with Rocket Chat and haven't looked back since!
Awsome project and nice alternative to Slack
What do you like best about the product?
We use rocket.chat for our department. Thereby we run a self-hosted instance in our own kybernetes. Installation was super easy. File sharing, video chat, and of course instance messaging are a driver of our daily business life.
What do you dislike about the product?
One could improve the notification mechanism. Currently, I get an e-mail, smartphone push notification, and a desktop notification whenever there is a new message. Doesn't matter if I already read the message on one of the mentioned devices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use rocket.chat for our internal communication. Thereby we use basically all the available features like file sharing, video conferencing, polls, and instant messaging. We also use guest accounts to integrate external partners in certain channels.
Good collaboration app

Rocket.Chat is the platform we built our internal/proprietary chat app on. Saved us thousands
What do you like best about the product?
The community has been the best thing about Rocket.Chat. Every time we have an issue trying to get something to work we get a quick response time in the Github page. The community likes helping and that's an awesome thing.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some bugs/issues that have been around for months. We had to hire a contractor to fix the bug which was expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time to getting a chat app launched was cut in half. Time is money so we were able to save thousands.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to fork from the main Rocket.Chat branch. It's hard to update so make sure you know what you want before forking. Make sure you're okay with not getting updates as well.
Chat with RocketChat
What do you like best about the product?
The best feature is it's ALMOST free (for 1000 people) which is pretty helpful for many companies. For example, there are around 400 employees where I work.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that I can't have a preview of the source file I send to someone. Suppose, I sent a *.java file to someone, I would have loved to have an editable preview of this file which will prevent me from downloading the file to have a look at it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have deployed RocketChat locally here at my company. We are developing an ERP system for the company and we need to do many REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS in many departments. This deployment is for the purposes of communication between several departments if there's any need.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want an unlimited number of messaging with a team of totalling 1000 people or few, go for it. You won't regret !
