Discord vs. HyperOffice Enterprise Collaboration Suite

Discord worked well for us in an academic setting, although I would probably recommend something like Slack--which has more professional connotations--for a work setting. Discord is great for more casual conversation because it has a connotation for being frequently used by gamers, Reddit users, large groups of friends, and people interested in a particular topic.

It is well suited for the medium to large companies, where you are managing a large amount of data and files. Least suited for the small companies or startups.

• One to many Communications to ensure that we can quickly get messages out when we have to.
• Quick polling of questions and issues
• The ability to gate channels so we can focus on folks that we know are stakeholders gives them an added feeling of belonging and that they have a say in the direction of projects.

• Simple interface which makes it easy to operate.
• Great Features to facilitate the needs.

• UI could always use improvement - may be a learning curve for new users
• Many young to middle aged users but may be difficult for older generation to take up Discord as a means of communication
• Sometimes the ads for their Nitro features can be obnoxious

• Takes time to learn the functionalities.
• A bit pricey for small companies.
• Extra help required to learn.

I can't really say much on this. It's extremely easy to use, it's very logical and intuitive, and very easy to install and set-up. Even the settings menus make sense even to nonliterate IT people.

I would give it a 10 rating because it absolutely deserves it. Discord has made things like keeping in touch extremely easy for people. Anywhere from gamers, businessmen and even family calls are all a part of this fantastic application. The ease of access of being able to jump in a room with your friends and talk to them is amazing

I've heard good things about the customer support team of HyperOffice but never had any experience myself.

Discord is better when addressing many people at once. I like how you can upload emotes, and it's just a lot more fun. I don't even use Whatsapp anymore. I'd rather text people than use Whatsapp for all intense and purposes. Discord also uses bots and I don't think Whatsapp does.

The platform is easy-to-use and helpful in managing projects. Additionally, email-based communication and updates are great.

• Discord has allowed us to connect to students when typical email & text would not work.
• Discord has allowed easy creation and communication for small group leaders and their students.
• Discord is free and so many students have access to it.

• Definitely. Got more features than expected for the price plan. Props to the team for that.
