## Working at the time of Covid19
|
||||
|
||||
So looks like 2020 is the year of remote working for the whole lot of people. Welcome to the club! Our team has been working remotely since 2013 and now we are distributed in 5 time zones. So, yes, we have our set of know-hows built by trials, errors and success. We obviously couldn't do it without the digital infrstructure, and that's what we're going to share here. Remote work, but what do we use as technology for supporting that? We got you. Here's a practical list of tech stack we use in our daily business: remote working chez ungleich. Check it out.

## 1. Chat: Zero carbon chat - Mattermost, Matrix
|
||||
|
||||
You definitely need a chat system when working remotely with your team, and you need it to be secure and hassle-free. We used to be on Slack at the very beginning, but we did not like the fact that Slack is hosted with AWS: from our point of view AWS datacenters are not sustainable compared to our own renewable energy datacenter, so we moved away from Slack into hosting our own chat.

|
||||
|
||||
Now we have two chat systems, [Mattermost](https://ungleich.ch/u/products/zero-carbon-chat/) and [Matrix.](https://ungleich.ch/u/products/hosted-matrix-chat/)
|
||||
Mattermost offers an extremely easy and smooth team communication for people with all kinds of backgrounds. Most of our team talk happens on this platform. [Our chat](https://chat.ungleich.ch) is open for public and we invite anybody who's looking for a team chat to dive into it to experience it.

[Zero Carbon Matrix](https://ungleich.ch/u/products/hosted-matrix-chat/), on the other hand, offers end-to-end encryption and federation, which makes it very attractive for people with high sensitivity for privacy and security. It also allows us to be more open.

## 2. Cloud storage - Nextcloud
|
||||
|
||||
We are using hosted [Nextcloud](https://ungleich.ch/u/products/zero-carbon-cloud) for data storage and sharing. It supports cloud storage, file sharing between teams and real-time collaboration for document editing. It's pretty easy and we like to save data in Switzerland and not somewhere we don't trust the authorities.

## 4. Code hosting - Gitlab
|
||||
|
||||
We used GitHub before, but we decided to move to our own Gitlab in 2018 due to GitHub's lack of #IPv6 support and some other issues. It turned out to be a very good idea, and we're hosting Gitlab for our customers too.
