It has a web-based chat client which allows for simultaneous editing, viewing, and discussion of messages. Zulip also has native clients for Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux, Windows Phone, and the command line.

It’s free, open-source software released under the Apache License. Zulip is funded by Y Combinator, General Catalyst, and Andreessen Horowitz.

Zulip mobile app usability

Zulip is a communication software designed for teams to discuss code. It is a chat system with an interface that appears more like a social media site.

The app is organised with a threaded conversation view and can do private, one-on-one chats and broadcast messages. The app also has a robust feature of editing conversations that allows you to delete individual messages or entire conversations. Unlike Slack, Zulip does not have a desktop version. Still, it simultaneously syncs with the chat on the desktop, so any messages typed on the desktop are automatically synced to the mobile.

Users like:

  • Free Plan
  • Easy to Use
  • Effective Conversation Thread Algorithms

Users don't like:

  • Billing Can Be a Little Confusing

Why to choose/Best for:

  • Without code getting in the way and breaking the chat, users can make bulleted lists and small-time HTML to organize their thoughts
  • If math needs to be discussed, Zulip can display formulas without the coding breaking it
  • You receive notifications of important messages that were missed
  • Create To-Do lists for optimization and to ensure that you don’t miss anything important
  • To ensure that only your team or desired guests can see what is being discussed, only those invited can see the conversation
  • If the desired feature is not listed, Zulip can create and implement it just for you

    • Awesome and open source! If one were to run into any problems, the community is very responsive and fast-acting.

    • There’s no ability to share anything from another app to it. Also video can’t be played directly. And the list of users I have chatted with disappear I have to search for the User again to write to him

    • One of the best tools for collaboration!

    • So buggy; it is completely unuseable.

    • Great on desktop, buggy on phone. Needs more feature control.
