Zulip

Comparisons anchored on Zulip, the Apache-2.0 team chat with topic-based threading, covering Zulip Cloud, self-hosted plans and Matrix.

Zulip Cloud vs self-hosted Zulip

The same software on Zulip Cloud or on your own servers: published Cloud and self-hosted plan prices, storage and search limits, mobile push notifications, data residency and the effort to operate the server.

Zulip self-hosted free vs paid plans

What the free Community plan includes (every feature, push notifications for up to 10 users for most organizations) and what Basic, Business and Enterprise add in support and notifications, with the published per-user prices.

Zulip vs Matrix

Topic-threaded team chat on one server against a federated protocol with Synapse and Element: SSO and data import, federation, end-to-end encryption, bridging between the two and the operating effort for each.
