Corporate
chat platform

In-house chat platform for a multidisciplinary Russian IT company with extensive experience in digitalization

IM platform is an environment that combines the chat functionality (channels, groups, P2P chats, bots) and tight integration with the customer's corporate landscape

The DCloud team developed an 'in house' solution similar to a chat platform for a well-known Russian company from scratch

In addition to p2p messaging, as well as communication in groups and channels, extension mechanisms have been implemented that allow you to interact with corporate systems directly from chats, build user interfaces, create chats/groups and channels based on the company's regular structure

Minimal revisions and refactorings
