Mattermost is an open-source chat application that you self-host where you have the option of file sharing, searching chats, and integrations with applications. In short, it is an alternative to Slack. You gather all your communication in one place and you can create integrations via webhooks or use the over 400 applications already integrated such as Jira, Gitlab, Jenkins, Jitsi and Zoom. Mattermost applications are available for Android, iOS, Windows, Linux and Mac.
