Collaboration solution platform

Riot.im allows multiple groupware accounts to be used simultaneously. Instant messaging service Riot.im combines all your files, IMs, and other information into one platform that is protected with end-to-end encryption. Riot chat is ideal for programmers, developers, and other advanced users. You will need to own your own server. All Riot users will be able to access its crypto ratchet technology which creates a secure, decentralized WiFi connection. You can also access the official Riot.im sourcecode via GitHub. You can modify the code to make your chat room fit as many people as you want.

Capabilities

Riot is available under the Apache License 2.0. It includes a federated Matrix protocol that allows you to create your own servers. Although Riot developers encourage you modify their code, this should not discourage beginners from using the platform. The Matrix React SDK allows you to add plug-ins or other tools to Riot. It is a React-based software developer kit that can automatically identify and fix bugs in your code. It also uses Electron software framework to create desktop applications within Riot.

Once you have created your Riot account, it's possible to share files, videos, and messages with your colleagues, partners, as well as other contacts. Riot allows you to see who has read your content by sending read receipts. It also allows you to communicate with your colleagues via its VoIP features. It supports video and audio calling for one-on-one and group discussions. However, the groupware Riot is embedded with will determine the call's capacity.

Innovative collaboration tool

Riot is useful for people who have multiple accounts on groupware programs. This platform allows you to quickly respond to your team members without having to switch accounts. You will need to have some programming experience to use this program. The server and chat rooms can be configured to suit your needs. However, it can also be embedded with collaboration tools immediately. Riot can be used on any Windows device with Windows 7 or higher to meet your coworkers and group mates.
