For example, there\u2019s Discord: a platform that rose to popularity thanks to the gamer community. Conversations are organized into channels by topic, with options for voice, text, and even video chatting. It turns out, the gamers were onto something, and now businesses are looking into this tool for their own teams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But every small business is different, and no <a href=\"https:\/\/newrcblog.wpengine.com\/us\/en\/blog\/team-communication-app\/\">team communication app<\/a> is one-size-fits-all. It\u2019s possible Discord isn\u2019t the right fit for your business; after all, it was built for gaming, not professional use. The interface might not be as intuitive as you need for non-gamer team members, and file sharing is pretty limited, depending on the pricing tier you choose. Plus, you might find some other platforms offer a more professional look and feel for clients and other external guests on calls and messaging threads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, how do you know which team messaging software is right for your small business?

Or had a day so full of back-to-back meetings you weren\u2019t able to get any work done?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re not alone. How many hours do we lose every day digging through our inboxes and wasting time in unnecessary meetings that could\u2019ve been a quick message or email?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While online communications tools probably won\u2019t eliminate <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> emails or meetings, they can help you work with other people more efficiently. For example, group messaging and chat tools let you fire off quick messages, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/contact-center\/workforce-management.html\">workforce management<\/a> tools help employers monitor projects and quickly prioritize tasks without calling meetings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Team messaging has become doubly important as small businesses have needed to pivot their operations online and away from in-person communication. In the age of distributed teams, instant messaging is the new \u201cstopping by so-and-so\u2019s desk.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these facts in mind, it\u2019s understandable why there are so many apps out there designed to help us communicate faster, collaborate better, and ultimately get more work done in less time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading h2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"two\"><\/a>How to choose the best team messaging tools for your business\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be overwhelming to find the right communication tool for your unique business, but we have a few tips to help you in your search:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look for an all-in-one solution\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are some powerful, multifunctional options on the list below, and they\u2019re worth a second look. Why? Having all of your communication needs in one place\u2014file sharing, team messaging, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/how-does-a-virtual-phone-call-work.html\">virtual calls<\/a>, for example\u2014cuts down on toggling between different apps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techrepublic.com\/article\/employees-switch-apps-more-than-1100-times-a-day-decreasing-productivity\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recent research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, employees jump between different applications over 1,000 times a day. This kind of inefficiency might seem small at first, but it adds up to time lost, tasks missed, and mistakes made.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In short: the more features in one place, the better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find tools the whole team will love<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chances are good that your team members range in age and tech savviness. When shopping for your new communication tool, consider everyone\u2019s abilities. Clean, simple platforms that offer truly intuitive functionality can go a long way toward enthusiastic adoption by employees of all abilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A gentler learning curve is good for your team and your business. It means less time spent on training and frustrations, and more time spent doing the work that matters. It might be a good idea to involve your less tech-happy team members in the test drives to ensure you find a product that makes their lives easier, not more stressful.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Security is key<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ever heard of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/how-to-avoid-zoombombs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>\u201cZoombombing\u201d<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? Remote teams of all sizes have learned the importance of a secure connection this year. This goes double if your business handles sensitive information: think finance, education, healthcare, insurance, and high tech.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If confidentiality is important to your team and customers, find out how many layers of security are offered by the communication tools you research. (For example, RingCentral offers seven layers of security, which seems hard to beat.)<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think (and ask) about scalability<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We wager a main goal for your business is growth. More customers means more tasks for your team, and maybe even the need to expand your ranks. This could mean growing pains for your communication tool of choice if you don\u2019t think far enough into the future as you shop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a good idea to find a communication tool that will grow with you, instead of capping out. That way you can carry the platform into the next phases of your business for greater continuity, with no need to retrain everyone on a new tool as you scale up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading h2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"three\"><\/a>The top 6 Discord alternatives for small businesses<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. <a href=\"http:\/\/glip.com\">Glip by RingCentral<\/a>: Powerful, feature rich, and free<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45792 size-large\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/03-OG-1200x627-Twitter-adapted-1024x535.png\" alt=\"Discord alternatives - Glip free team messaging\" width=\"1024\" height=\"535\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glip<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00ae<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a unified communications platform that offers team chats, file sharing, and task management\u2014all in the same app. Plus, <a href=\"http:\/\/glip.com\/\">Glip Pro is totally free<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along with unlimited one-to-one and group messaging, Glip Pro comes with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/ways-to-use-free-file-sharing-in-your-ringcentral-app\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">file sharing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and task management capabilities.

You can even invite external guests into the groups you create, for greater collaboration with your stakeholders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45850\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/glip-file-sharing-1024x640.png\" alt=\"glip file sharing\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s also a team calendar available so you can assign tasks and create events that are visible to different teams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to all of the powerful team collaboration and messaging features, RingCentral Glip includes high-def video conferencing at the free and paid levels\u2014one-on-one and for teams (up to 100 participants on the free plan!). There\u2019s even text chat available right in the <a class=\"waffle-rich-text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/video-call.html\">video call<\/a>, so you can drop questions for presenters without interrupting: <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45844 size-large\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/glip-screen-share-1024x640.png\" alt=\"Discord alternatives - Glip screen sharing\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the Pro+ level (the paid tier), Glip integrates seamlessly with Outlook and Google calendars. That means you\u2019re automatically marked as \u201cBusy\u201d during meetings, with the option to turn on Do Not Disturb to silence chats that come through.

Slack: Fun like Discord, with a free option included<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44151\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/slack-chat-app-1024x659.jpg\" alt=\"slack free messaging\" width=\"1024\" height=\"659\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upsides<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slack is probably the messaging tool on this list that\u2019s most similar to Discord. So if you like the setup of Discord\u2014conversation channels organized by topic\u2014Slack might be worth checking out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slack is wildly popular with tech startups and other fast-paced, collaborative teams. It even played a huge role in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/qz.com\/work\/1662134\/elizabeth-warren-uses-slack-cory-booker-uses-docusign-heres-what-presidential-candidates-are-spending-on-office-software\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">certain presidential candidates\u2019 volunteer coordination<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That\u2019s because Slack allows for both public and private channels and ways to keep folks on task while having fun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The drawbacks<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re looking to have all of your communication tools in one place, Slack might fall short for you on the voice and video front. Unlike Glip, Slack only allows one-to-one voice and video calls at this time. You\u2019ll need to set up integrations with more powerful video <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/free-conference-call.html\">conference call services<\/a> to have group meetings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another huge restriction is that Slack\u2019s free version only stores 10,000 messages at once, forcing users to manually or automatically delete messages once the limit is reached. Even a small team could hit 5,000 fairly fast, so this limit makes it too easy for information to get lost.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h2 h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Zoho Cliq: Powerful free communication tool for smaller teams<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45514\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/zoho-cliq-free-messaging-1024x591.png\" alt=\"zoho cliq free messaging\" width=\"1024\" height=\"591\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upsides<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cliq is the messaging app from Zoho, a web-based office suite competing with Microsoft\u2019s Office 365.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a free messaging app, Cliq has a lot to offer: individual and team chats, channels, and a whopping 100 GB of storage per company. You can set up reminders in-app, as well as integrate most types of calendars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cliq comes with one-on-one and group audio or video calls, which is a great perk for a free messaging platform\u2014and the limit is a very generous 100 people per call. Their free version even comes with Single Sign-on for added security.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The drawbacks<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cliq\u2019s free version only lets users search through the most recent 10,000 messages, which can be limiting, especially for bigger teams. It also won\u2019t let you create private chats, which can be very necessary at times, depending on how big your company is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, if you aren\u2019t a huge fan of the Discord and Slack layout and functionality, Cliq might look familiar, and not in a good way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Google Chat: Good for Google Workspace users<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45781\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/image2-5-1024x767.png\" alt=\"discord alternatives - google chat\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upsides<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Chat has some pretty unique features, including Smart Replies, which\u2014just like Gmail\u2014automatically gives you suggested responses. You also get a Do Not Disturb mode and the ability to view files stored in your Google Drive or Google Docs directly in Chat. Google Chat is also available in a whopping 28 languages. Plus, it\u2019s another tool with a free option!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Chat is also one of the most secure instant messaging platforms available, with enterprise-grade security and features like two-factor authentication, admin settings, mobile device management, and Single Sign-on. Plus, you\u2019ll get great file storage and organization courtesy of Google Drive.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The drawbacks\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Chat is really best for teams that are using Google for just about everything. Otherwise, this option falls short of the all-in-one ideal. All users will need to create a free Google account in order to join or host a meeting, which could present a barrier to seamless use, especially if your teams collaborate often with external partners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(On the other hand, <a href=\"http:\/\/glip.com\">Glip Pro<\/a> allows direct browser access to any meetings or messaging teams without having to create an account or download anything.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might also feel the pinch when it comes to scalability if you\u2019re on a tight budget. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smaller companies could get away with using Google Chat\u2019s free tier but may find it doesn\u2019t have enough advanced features or integrations as the business grows.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Microsoft Teams: Good for businesses on Windows<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-45519\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/microsoft-teams-messaging-1024x576.png\" alt=\"microsoft teams messaging\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upsides<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Microsoft Teams is another free option that has a good amount of bells and whistles on par with Glip Pro. In addition to their video conferencing tool, Teams (like Glip Pro) boasts a lot of third-party integrations, especially in the realm of project management. These tools allow project teams to collaborate on documents and check off tasks toward their goals, so everyone is on the same page.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The drawbacks<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some people might find a few of the Teams features less than ideal from a business perspective, though. For instance, the interface can be clunky for users and guests. TechRadar said the file collaboration portal, OneDrive, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/microsoft-onedrive-for-office-365\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lacks the polish<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of other similar services and doesn\u2019t always feel intuitive or easy to navigate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for working with external clients and stakeholders on video conferencing, there is a browser-based option, but only on Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> There\u2019s also no video calling at all if you\u2019re using the free version on iOS. Requiring your guests to download a new browser or the Windows app before a meeting can create snags in the seamlessness of your brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6.

The free version of Webex Teams comes with voice and video calls for up to 100 participants, with file sharing, unlimited messaging and message searching, and message threads for more segmented discussions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Webex Teams also supports various calendar integrations. Its mobile app supports mobile screen sharing, a relatively rare feature, and it is supported on every major device type.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The drawbacks\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The free version of Webex Teams, while full of good features, suffers from one major drawback: meeting length is capped at 50 minutes. Since hour-long meetings are fairly standard, this hobbles the free version, as nobody\u2019s going to choose this app when so many other free apps don\u2019t put time restrictions on video calls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, Webex Teams is heavily integrated with other Cisco technology. If your business has already invested in Cisco legacy hardware, it could be a good choice, but otherwise, its integrations are limited compared to other apps we discuss in this article.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading h2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which Discord alternative is best for your business?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After doing the research and writing up this rundown, it\u2019s clear that the team-communication space has been hurting for an app like <a href=\"http:\/\/glip.com\">Glip Pro<\/a>. Hardly anyone else provides the same quality video and audio for free, and our feature-rich team messaging tool is a real asset to businesses looking to streamline internal and external communications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you go with Glip Pro or another communication tool on this list, here\u2019s our biggest piece of advice: keep your clients in mind while you decide. Be sure to choose a product that offers the professional, reliable experience you hope to provide them in every interaction, with as few hiccups as possible. Reading product reviews is a great way to get a feel for how these tools work in the real world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The best news: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because all of the platforms we reviewed offer a solid free option, there\u2019s zero risk involved in trying them. Give them a whirl and upgrade your team\u2019s communication.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a rundown of powerful yet free Discord alternatives, you&#8217;ve come to the right blog.
