"Gitter is a way to go!"
What do you like best about Gitter?

Gitter supports real-time chat, which is ideal for quick discussions, problem-solving, and brainstorming within developer communities. This immediacy helps teams. Gitter is free to use, which is particularly beneficial for open-source projects and communities that rely on accessible tools for collaboration. Gitter is tightly integrated with GitHub and GitLab, allowing developers to link repositories, pull requests, issues, and code discussions directly in chat rooms! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gitter?

The search functionality in Gitter is not as robust as it could be. Finding specific past messages or content can be difficult, especially in large rooms with extensive chat histories. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Revolutionization in team interaction and instant messaging solution by Gitter"
What do you like best about Gitter?

The best part about gitter is the seamless integration with github repository. It helped my fellow developers in code reviews and resolving code conflicts. It is very easy to use and implement on local systems. The accessibility for gitter is available on both the desktop and web application. The user interface is quite intuitive and made the user journey very easy. The customer support is very helpful and it addresses majority of the issues. We are frequently using gitter as compared to other collaboration tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gitter?

The least helpful about gitter is that it is solely for developers and cannot be used by other departments such as PMO if they want to interact with development issues and prepare logs. It is much more dependent on github and it does not allow other repos. It does not provide offline feature as the user needs to be connected to internet and once there is no internet connectivity then all the changes are lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Gitter is generally user-friendly, but newcomers might find the interface a bit less intuitive compared to more mainstream chat applications.
