* Mattermost - for group collaboration, instead of Slack

Mattermost is the most feature compatible with Slack I have ever used. I haven't used it as an administrator just a user. Also checkout Let's Chat (which is developed in Toronto) and Rocket.Chat.

* Wekan - for task/project management, instead of Trello or Asana

I was going to switch from Trello to Wekan until I saw it's powered by MongoDB. I'm not really a fan of that database. I'm going to probably move to it once I learn how to backup and secure MongoDB. -- Have an awesome day, and happy open-sourcing :-).

The team here likes tuleap for agile project management. Odoo has an app like Slack, and also basic project management. There is an extensive suite of module that converts it into a Student Information System (SIS), called OpenEduCat. On 2017-05-05 03:21 PM, Evan Leibovitch via talk wrote:

Hey all,

A group I'm working with is looking to see if the following self-hosted FOSS tools are a worthwhile migration from their closed alternatives:

* Mattermost - for group collaboration, instead of Slack * Wekan - for task/project management, instead of Trello or Asana * BigBlueButton - for webinars, instead of Adobe Connect or GoToWebinar

​Any reviews, war stories ​or other advice is welcome.

​PS: Not software related, but we're also looking for an auditor familiar with Canadian nonprofit ​experience.

Thanks!

I host this for a team. Haven't used it (or Slack) really myself, but as far as hosting and admin goes, it's quite easy to set up and use.

[...] * BigBlueButton - for webinars, instead of Adobe Connect or GoToWebinar

I've hosted this for several years. Biggest reason I don't use it myself is that the client requires Flash. Also a bit awkward to have to integrate with another web application as a front-end. I find it had a lot of potential, but feels kind of awkward to use and admin, and doesn't seem to have grown much over the last 5 years (unless I just haven't been paying attention). It did serve our team well for several years though in terms of screen sharing remote meetings.
