Chanty review

Chanty fits small teams that want task boards inside their chat app instead of a separate project tool. Its pricing page lists a free plan for up to 5 team members with unlimited public and private chats, unlimited searchable history, scheduled and disappearing messages, unlimited one-on-one audio and video calls, built-in task management and 20 GB of file storage per team. The Business plan adds unlimited group chats and group calls, unlimited screen sharing, to-do lists and task boards, calendar and events, polls and forms, 20 GB of storage per user and 3 guest seats per member. Business also lists HIPAA compliance with a BAA, SSO, 2FA, IP allowlists, a 24x7 support line and a 99.9% uptime guarantee, which is unusual at this price level. Enterprise adds SCIM provisioning, white labeling and US, EU and APAC data residency. From our location the page showed euro prices only, so the US dollar price is pending. The free plan's 5 member cap is the main limit.
