    Reviews & Ratings

    Review Summary

    User reviews of Mattermost highlight its strengths as a self-hosted, open-source Slack alternative, particularly for teams that prioritize data security and control. Users praise its ease of use, robust file-sharing features, and integration with tools like GitLab and Jira. However, some users express concerns about the mobile app's stability, limited search functionality, and the absence of built-in video conferencing. While Mattermost offers a powerful platform for internal communication, addressing these limitations would further enhance its user experience.
