About Zulip

Zulip organizes chat messages by topic within channels. Try using one channel for a project and separate topics for decisions, questions and updates. This can make it easier to return later and read a whole conversation without sorting through unrelated messages. The approach works best when team members name topics clearly and keep discussions in the appropriate place. Zulip offers hosted and self-hosted options, so compare their administration and retention settings with your needs. Test integrations, notifications and search with a small group before migrating an entire team. Include both asynchronous work and urgent communication in the trial.
