"ejabberd allows me to create applications in a fairly simple way"
What do you like best about ejabberd?

Its main attraction turns out to be its ease of use that allows me to create applications in a fairly simple way, the fact that it has a wide variety of plugins is a very useful tool to configure and customize my developments to the maximum, the quantity and the quality of the documentation that is achieved is very good, not to mention the fact that the support community is quite quick when responding to any request or requirement that may arise regarding the use of the application, creating my ejabberd applications is quite a simple task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ejabberd?

None, despite the fact that I have only been using this tool for a short time, it has been working perfectly for me, which for me was a big surprise since I did not think it would be helpful after my previous experiences with other similar applications. . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Scaling this requires a great amount work in OPS"
What do you like best about ejabberd?

Used it extensively for 1 year for one of client and built an app similar to Whatsapp with media, location, and more.

It is best if you have tech skills in the team and time to go that extra mile.

It scales pretty well but you must have the right setup, time, and monitoring for sure.

The easiest way is to go with ProcessOne hosted solution.

There are lots of plugins out there to support you. and the code is well written, easy to understand too if you know the basics so creating your own plugin should not be a concern.

Core developers are very easily accessible through GitHub issues, All and all great community support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ejabberd?

The hosted solution by ProcessOne is costly.

Without that, it requires a lot of effort and skill to setup server and client integration to see basic chat functionality.

Not easy to find good talent in it. So it creates a dependency on the team member who handles it.

Nowadays there are better and cheaper solutions out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easiest Way to Get You Chat Server within hours"
What do you like best about ejabberd?

The best thing I like is the setup. All you need to do is clone the code and configure the file. That's ALL.

Also, their development team are too supportive on IRC. The response is like within 1-2 hours. Whenever i encounter any error or got stuck somewhere with their guidance i would able to solve them with in the same day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ejabberd?

There are some features which are available in others paid server. But I guess that ok cause you can always contribute to the community to make it better. The second and most important is security, we have to add a feature to encrypt our chat in database so that no one can read them through database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
