Connect

Connect is a location-powered messaging app that brings together friends from your phone and social media. The job it does: replacing internal email with channels and direct messages.

It makes the most sense for every team. Related areas on their profile: Local, Messaging, Mobile and Social. As a very small product team themselves (1 to 10 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Connect is based in San Francisco, California and founded in 2012. More on connect.com.

Before you commit, look at search, retention policies, and external guest access. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with Connect, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
