Otta's take

Theo Margolius headshot

Theo Margolius

COO of Otta

Internal collaboration tools that foster virtual working have never been in higher demand. The shift to virtual working environments have changed remote working forever. Mattermost's key product is well-positioned to meet this surge in demand: it is essentially a collaboration platform which offers secure messaging across web, desktop and native mobile devices.

It runs as a server install in your own data centre and can be accessed remotely or locked down so that it only runs internally. That’s a major benefit for any company that needs to comply with industry regulations. Hospitals, law firms, and even government agencies will be drawn to the enterprise-level security features that make the platform nearly impossible to access over the public Internet. This is what sets Mattermost apart from other collaboration platforms like Slack, Zoom and Microsoft Teams.

Currently, Mattermost is powering messaging and collaboration for companies like Samsung, Daimler, SAP and Cigna. With solid foundations and a big prospective customer base, therefore, Mattermost is well set to achieve big things.
