Discord

Great UI/UX overall.
Best servers and channels management system.

Cons: The servers have issues sometimes connecting or streaming.

Overall: The best communicating tool for gaming and non gaming users as well, some features are paid but the free to use features are more than enough for any average user.

Pros: Free to Use.
Can create multiple servers each with multiple text and voice channels.
Can share screen and web cam stream.

Cons: Sometimes the servers are down.
The server needs to be boosted for extra features.

Overall: By far the best software for communicating via text and voice text.
UI/UX is great.
The Management of channels is also great.

Pros: Free of cost
Cross platform
720p streaming on free tier
Can chat, chat, talk, video conference, stream, share files and what more
Is secure
Can add bots to help and manage the server

Cons: Using for around 7 to 8 hrs everyday and could not find any cons. But yes sometime crashes if quickly open as I turn on my PC.

Overall: Without this I don't think I could survive this lockdown. Firstly its free. You can chat, talk, video conference, stream, share files and what more do you need. This helped me in making new friend from my class to whom I had never talked in my class before. And we sit hours and hours from morning till night on Discord. This i just awesome.

Pros: It's easy to set up channels, moderate content and users. Audio is alright, video quality is acceptable. There's a light and dark mode, and it's compatible across all devices, making it useful to use on the go. You can have a large number of users per server and plenty of channels. There is a channel limit, but most users would not likely hit it. Channels can be organized by categories as well.

Cons: The character limit on this isn't great. You can't get much out before you've hit the limit. Basic things like uploading gifs and anything but the smallest of files require a paid account. There are other software out there that let you do those things for free. Sorting through information and keeping track of anything is a pain, even with pins. Screen sharing isn't all that great either, which is ironic given the software's original purpose. No threaded comments either. Not a big deal, but having them would be nice.

Overall: I've used this for over a year now. It worked well for what I needed it to do then, but I've moved on to other software since then that have more features. Discord was originally intended as a program for gamers to share content and chat, and it shows. While many are working toward expanding features as more and more people have to work or go to school from home, Discord lags behind in features and quality. It's still decent, but it doesn't compare to what else is out there now. It's best suited for what it was made for, and that's not really a bad thing. Could be better with some minor tweaks and added features, but it's decent as is.

Pros: I love that I can set up a server and have different chat rooms for different projects and so everyone is on the same page.

Cons: I wish more people would use it instead of fighting change.

Overall: Overall this is a great software and works well when people want to take the time to use it. A must have for group projects.

Pros: - I like how Discord can be a suitable tool for everything from multiplayer gaming to a professional team setting.

Cons: - Honestly, Discord's UI can be very confusing for a complete beginner.

Overall: Discord is one of those platforms that you never would have thought will gain traction. But it's quite popular and helps you collaborate quite well.

Pros: Discord is a great platform to create a community group. It has multi-platform support. Clear voice conferencing is also an excellent feature. It offers an intuitive tool to add bot command for an auto-reply.

Cons: It worked great for me. Nothing to share about cons.

Overall: Discord is a very handy community chatting and voice conferencing tool. It offers very easy to create discord server. It works as a platform to stay connected with the business community. Easy to add the user role and power in the group. It's a great app.

Pros: - It is open source!
- Default dark mode (go easy on your eyes)
- Great voice chat quality and VoIP calls.
- One can even stream their games on their servers.
- One can find a variety of community servers on here.

Cons: - Recently I heard about some malware that steals users password.
Honestly, I cant think of any other cons.

Overall: Its a great way to co ordinate with your gaming partners in an online multiplayer games. I met a lot of funny people from around the world on this app.

Pros: The creation of servers is quite simple to do.
It provides voice channels, so it is possible to talk to others while playing your game, watching a movie or just chilling out.
Text channels are available, so it's possible to message with text, images, gifs and videos.
Private messaging is available for chating to other users privately without worrying about other people seeing it.
There's an option to share the game screen, so other users can see the game. This is useful for games like Kahoot and Jackbox Party.

Cons: No theme customization, other than dark theme and light theme.
There is no end-to-end encryption for messages.

Overall: Discord is a great platform to chat with other gamers throughout the world. It's the best alternative to Skype, because of its features.

Pros: Beautiful, functional design.
Good audio quality with Noise suppression feature.
Free to use.
Extensive admin control.
Twitch integration.

Cons: Lack of joint voice and text channel.
File upload limit.

Overall: Discord is the perfect voice chat app for gamers. Apart from great sound quality it provides a social platform aspect which is missing from most of its competitors.

Pros: It is super easy to use and user friendly. It is a breeze to communicate with your team mates. It also looks very pretty.

Cons: The notification system - that small white dot - is irritating. If I disable popups I need to look carefully for indication that someone, somewhere wrote something.

Overall: It is a fantastic tool for communication. It is not only for gamers although voice chat is not only helpful but it is working!

Pros: UI Friendly, Make a server is so damn easy, Friendly Community
