Summary

Qovery, a remote-first startup, switched from Slack to Discord for their communication needs, primarily due to Discord's pricing model and superior voice communication features. Slack's message history limit and per-user payment model were not cost-effective for Qovery's growing community, while Discord offers no history limit and better audio quality at a lower cost. Despite Discord's lack of some integrations and threaded messages, which Slack excels in, its smooth performance and responsiveness were surprising advantages. While Discord's interface is more gamer-focused, it has been increasingly incorporating features beneficial to IT teams, suggesting a potential shift towards a more business-oriented tool. The switch to Discord has been generally positive, with its strengths in voice communication outweighing the drawbacks in chat functionality.
