Ryver over Slack

Why I’m moving away from Slack

I have been a long time Slack user.  I got on the Slack bandwagon not to long after it came into existence.  But I’m leaving Slack and moving over to Ryver.  I still like Slack.  The biggest problem I have with it is that I’m bored and quite frankly just done with it.

I have used it very successfully for my business as well as a simple communication tool for personal use.  Now that I have started ByronDoss.com I want to try something different.  I don’t want to do the same ole’ Slack communication.  And this is where Ryver comes in.

First, it is 100% free.  That is always a nice thing for any company or start-up.  Second, there isn’t a limitation on the number of posts.  In Slack, if you are using the free version, then there is a 10,000 post limit.  After that, the older posts are archived and you can’t access them unless you are a paid subscriber.  In Ryver, there isn’t that issue.  Third, there isn’t a limit on data.  Which is nice.  For ByronDoss.com I want to make sure that those who participate in discussions don’t need to worry about how much data or space their conversations are taking up.  Finally, I just like the look a little better.  Things seem to be laid out in a better way.

Is Slack going away.  heck no!  It’s going to be around for a very long time.  But for me and what I want to do in the future, I think Ryver is a better way to do it.
