Case Study: a leading data science hub achieves compliance and better focus with Mattermost

Finding focus & data sovereignty: A leading data science hub moves from Slack to Mattermost

A leading data science hub was required to find a new messaging solution to comply with its parent organization's internal data sovereignty policies following an acquisition. They needed to replace Slack with a platform that could be self-hosted on their own infrastructure to maintain control over sensitive and proprietary data, while preserving their decade-long conversation history and collaborative culture.

The hub implemented Mattermost, a self-hosted collaboration platform. The solution allowed them to successfully migrate their entire history and custom emojis from Slack. By integrating Mattermost with automated tooling for instant alerting, they accelerated incident response. The move drastically reduced their reliance on email, exponentially increased team productivity, and provided a secure, agile environment where all daily work is now conducted.
