"Great communication platform"

What do you like best about Zulip?

Channels and conversation threads are very useful for compartmentalizing various conversations. The web/desktop interface is pleasant and intuitive. The support and documentation are very effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zulip?

The interface of the mobile application is a bit confusing and not very intuitive. But these problems seem to be fixed in the new version of the app, currently in beta version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zulip solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a small association, and we used WhatsApp for management before switching to Zulip. This solved several problems.

Firstly, Zulip is more "asynchronous," each volunteer can respond when they have time, whereas WhatsApp is instantaneous, requiring the message to be managed as soon as it is received and is also used for personal purposes, mixing the association's work with daily life.

Next, information is not compartmentalized in a WhatsApp group. The structure of conversations in Zulip allows us to be informed only about topics that concern us.

Finally, Zulip's search (coupled with the conversation structure) allows us to better find information when we need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
