Our take

Rocket.Chat is a secure, open source-based collaboration platform with a range of SaaS capabilities, powering individual and group communication, video conferencing, file uploading, and screen sharing for organizations that want more control over their communications.

The company sets itself apart from its competitors (such as Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and LiveChat) by being the only platform to enable private data storage. With partnerships that include Nextcloud and Matrix, Rocket.Chat is used by over 12M users, and counts the US Navy, the US Airforce, Credit Suisse, and more among its customers.

The company has focused on expanding partnerships and continued development of product capabilities, such as including Instagram Direct integration to its omnichannel communication offerings and developing its AI features. As one of the leading open-source communication platforms, Rocket.Chat is well set to see continued growth and global expansion.
