"More casual take on discussion protocols" 4 out of 5 stars Posted 2021-09-04
Pros: Laid back software designed more for friends and gaming than serious business organizations, but has the adaptability to fill that niche as well.
Cons: No ability to create truly private rooms within a server, forcing outside discussions. Limited emoji without boosts
Overall: Discord is the fun, quirky brother of the chat protocols, and it works well for that. Being able to jump between many different discords and link them together is very useful, but for a serious business, it wouldn't be my first choice.

"No longer just for gamers-- a great way to build community" 5 out of 5 stars Edited 2021-05-24
Pros: Discord is a surprisingly versatile platform that allows brands to build actual communities with their users. This has been especially useful during COVID isolation, but should continue to be useful as we move beyond isolation. Between hosting live events that users can watch, creating an interactive forum to work with users on problems, and to encouraging relationships to grow among the community of users, Discord provides the potential for businesses to be more engaged and accessible to their users than ever.
Discord also functions as a collaboration tool internally as well, similar to Zoom, Teams, and even Slack. For a small company, Discord could really do everything needed for collaboration internally and externally.Cons: The fact that Discord was initially intended as a way for people to chat while playing video games has limited its application in the eyes of many users. While they've recently rebranded themselves slightly, their icon still looks like a gaming controller. They should consider a more significant rebrand to grow their appeal to other industries.
As Discord continues to grow, they should add a feature that allows users to be logged into more than one account at once (similar to how you can switch easily between email accounts). Users are starting to have personal and professional accounts on the platform, and currently you have to log out all the way to switch.Overall: A great platform that is easy to use! It can just as easily be used for industry as it can be used for fun, remote hangouts with friends.

"One of the best communication apps on the internet" 5 out of 5 stars Posted 2021-05-20
Pros: Discord is packed with features that work well. Instant voice messaging, screen sharing, media file sharing - everything can be done seamlessly. There are thousands of servers and group discussions in not just gaming, but practically every field. It is the best app to ask for help or support from experienced users, with schoolwork, technology, blogging, or gaming as it was originally intended for. I love the bots that make managing channels easier, and the variety of gifs, stickers and messaging options outshine all other messaging apps. It works equally well across all devices - PCs and mobile. Simple and powerful.
Cons: It took me a while to get used to the technicalities of the app, even though there isn't much. The bots and multiple channels and access rights can be intimidating for a beginner.
Overall: Discord is like the biggest social media platform nobody talks about. It's like reddit, but more of an instant-messaging app than a forum-based community. Either way, it is very helpful and convenient. Plus, it's free and multi-platform.
