Hipchat had no problems so we went ahead and created a new slack clone from scratch ~ Atlassian 2017

👋 Hey Hunters! Cameron from the Atlassian Stride team here. @nick beat me to posting. Quick hunting, sir! Stride is the complete communication solution that empowers teams to talk less and do more. It's everything you need to stay connected and keep moving. Let's hit the highlights: *Express yourself with a kickass messaging experience* The foundation of a strong communications tool today is a strong messaging tool. We've built a lightweight, powerful, messaging experience to help you and your team communicate effectively. It starts with putting your ideas into words, and our full-featured editor provides you the tools you need – text formatting, code markdown, files and links, previews, and of course message editing. But sending messages is only half of it, you have full control over what messages you are notified about so you keep track of what matters, and our powerful Search makes sure you can always find what you need. *Connect to anyone, anywhere with Meetings* The easiest way to talk face-to-face with your teammates is just a click (or tap!) away. Jump into an impromptu video meeting and add your coworkers by name, dial out, or share a link. Share your screen to show off your latest genius, or grant a teammate control of your desktop when you can't figure out how to configure your company's VPN. *Move things forward with integrated Actions and Decisions* Isolate important follow-ups by marking any message as an Action or Decision, or create one of your own to summarize a longer discussion. Rather than getting buried in your message history, Actions and Decisions live neatly in your sidebar, accessible any time — it’s like having a built in TL;DR for every conversation! *Turn down distractions with Focus Mode* Focus Mode makes it simple to step away from the action of the workday and dive into deep work. With one click, Focus Mode mutes notifications and incoming messages and lets your team know you’re heads down on that important project. Most of this is FREE for all teams – including Stride's Video Meetings. Our paid tier is just $3 / User / Month – less than your morning latte, and far less than the combined cost of what three different products might be (smile) We’re stoked to finally get to share what we’ve been working so hard on for you, our users, and this is just the beginning for Stride — expect to see a lot from us in the coming months! I’ll be sticking around to answer any questions from y’all. – Cameron PS You can sign up for our early access program here: https://www.stride.com
