Case Study: a leading data science company improves compliance, focus, and productivity with Mattermost

A leading data science hub moves from Slack to Mattermost

A leading data science company, a community-powered organization with more than 20 million members, needed a secure messaging platform after being acquired by a parent company with strict internal policies requiring sensitive data to stay on infrastructure they control. It had previously relied on Slack, but needed an on-premises alternative that would preserve team communication while reducing context switching and keeping proprietary conversations in-house.

Mattermost provided the self-hosted collaboration platform, along with Slack migration tools and integrations for automated alerting. The company migrated more than a decade of message history and custom emojis, moved critical work and incident response into Mattermost, and integrated notifications from its tooling directly into channels. As a result, the team reduced reliance on email, improved agility and focus, and said Mattermost increased productivity exponentially while enabling faster responses to project launches and incidents.
