What is Matrix?

+ +

Matrix is a modern and decentralised, +open-source chat solution backed by a dynamic community. It provides many +advanced user-focused features such as end-to-end encryption, bridging or audio +& video calls.

+ +
+
+
+ +
+
+
    +
  • + The strongest point of Matrix is *federation*: a Matrix homeserver - which is + what we offer - allows to manage your own community... and to join the whole + Matrix network. You will be able to exchange with users on any other Matrix + server without any special configuration! +
    • +
  • + End-to-end encryption (E2EE) means that - when enabled - only the sender and + intended receiver(s) will be able to read the messages: even ungleich, who + manages the matrix server, will not be able to access the content of E2EE + messages. +
    • +
  • + Our Matrix servers are provided with a TURN server, meaning that you'll be + able to use voice and video calls out of the box. +
    • +
  • + We support bridging to other networks such as Mattermost instances, IRC, + Slack, Telegram and more via Matterbridge. +

Growing fast!

+

As of February 2020, the Matrix network supports ~13.5M visible + accounts, ~5.0M messages a day, ~40.000 federated servers and even governments!

-When you book a Matrix chat that is running in our [Data Center -Light](https://datacenterlight.ch), you pay for a virtual machine and -a maintenance fee, according to the VM size. +

A lot of privacy, security and usability work is going on... which + means that Matrix will get even more awesome in the coming months!

-That's it. No artifical user or room limit. +

You can follow the Matrix.org + blog to get frequent updates on Matrix's development, and chat with + us on #matrix:ungleich.ch! +

Hosted Matrix Chat

+ +

We will provide you with your own dedicated Matrix 'Home Server', as well as + a hosted web client. Matrix requires a domain name in order to join the global + networks, which will appear in your username (e.g. + @penguin:example.0co2.cloud): you can either use a subdomain of + 0co2.cloud (e.g. example.0co2.cloud) or your own domain name. We + will deploy a Matterbridge) + instance (bridging to Mattermost, IRC, Slack, Telegram, ...) on demand. +

+ +

There are many Matrix + clients, although we strongly recommend Riot which is the most + advanced at the moment. Be aware, however, that you might be a bit + confused with its UI/UX at first (there is ongoing work to improve + onboarding): we encourage you to try + Riot/Matrix first if your are not already familiar with it. +

+ +
+
+

Transparent Costs

+ +

The cost of our Matrix-as-a-Service offer is divided between a base maintenance + fee and the price of the dedicated Virtual Machine (VM) we deploy for you in + our own datacenter. There is no artifical + restriction on the number of users or size of rooms: the only limit is the + resources we allocate to your node. We will extend them on demand, following + the pricing model (CPU, RAM, Disk) of our VM + offer.

+ +
+ We also offer custom-sized deployment. You can discuss our offer with us by + email or even on matrix, via #matrix:ungleich.ch! +
+
+
+ +

You will find more details +on our Matrix-as-a-Service FAQ and on Matrix's official documentation. +

+ +
+You might be also interested in our [Mattermost-based chat +offer](../zero-carbon-chat), which might be closer to what you expect for a +enterprise team chat at the moment. We use both at ungleich, since Matrix is +especially convenient to reach out to the world! +
-If you need more resources, because you are using the chat -intensively, you can upgrade your VM to a bigger model. --- offer1_title: Matrix-S 36 CHF/Month --- @@ -110,4 +212,3 @@ offer3_text: --- offer3_link: https://ungleich.ch/product/hosted-matrix-l/ ---- diff --git a/content/u/products/zero-carbon-chat/contents.lr b/content/u/products/zero-carbon-chat/contents.lr index 628979c..c0cfebe 100644 --- a/content/u/products/zero-carbon-chat/contents.lr +++ b/content/u/products/zero-carbon-chat/contents.lr @@ -45,6 +45,12 @@ suitable for the following use case. * If you are dealing with sensitive data over your chat that needs to be protected against the unstable political situation * If your team needs a communication platform that does not betray the team's values: in other words, if your team values protecting the environment. +
