Self-hosted instant messaging | Workadi - An instant messaging solution for healthcare, business and people

Take complete control over company data. Workadi Server is the best solution for organizations that require or prefer self-hosted instant messaging.

Workadi Server is a complete software-based solution for company instant messaging

, and makes a great alternative to Skype for Business, alternative to Microsoft Teams, and alternative to Openfire deployments. Install it on company-controlled hardware to take complete control over your company's instant messaging environment. Your users will connect directly to a Workadi Server deployed behind your firewall instead of the public Workadi cloud.

Group chats can be user-initiated or fully company-controlled, and include the ability to automatically populate group chats based on OUs in Active Directory.

Retention Periods

Strictly control how long Workadi Server holds on to chat history and user-shared media, ensuring compliance with company policies.

Federation

Self-hosting doesn't mean you need to be lonely. Workadi's decentralized architecture means you can opt to federate with other businesses or the public Workadi cloud to keep your company connected while maintaining control over your data.
