Messagenius: A Microsoft Teams Alternative Designed for Enterprises
Self-hosted Microsoft Teams alternative for secure communication and collaboration across your entire team
Messagenius is the most comprehensive and secure enterprise messaging tool available. It provides more security, better user access control, and improved administrative features. Your company can choose the best installation option because the cloud is not always safest.
Why Does Your Company Need a Microsoft Teams Alternative?
Use of Microsoft Teams has more than quadrupled since the period prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. Millions of users are turning to Microsoft Teams for their collaboration on a daily basis. So, why does your business need to look for a better alternative to Microsoft Teams?
Let us show you three simple reasons why Teams is not your best choice.
More Security
The most significant problem with Teams, and similar, is loss of data ownership. Microsoft and its employees have access to your data because it is stored on their premises.
For truly secure enterprise messaging, you need an on-premises solution. You can, and should, own your data and no one else should have access to it.
More Functionality
Here are the things everyone expects from their messaging app: video conferencing, document sharing, file sharing, team chats, collaboration tools.
While Microsoft Teams delivers these, Messagenius helps your team function better with a wider range of features.
More Customisation
Your employees do not work for Microsoft, so why do they need to spend their time in a Microsoft environment? Other collaboration apps offer far more customisation and integration options than Microsoft Teams.
Being a tailored corporate white-label app, Messagenius gets fully customised for your use case, and provides your colleagues with a tailored app.

White-Label App

Customisable Encryption Settings
Messagenius offers highly granular security settings. This means you can customise the encryption, user access, and file sharing according to your business needs for every member. Learn more
Messagenius is Your Best Alternative to Microsoft Teams
Messagenius is the winner of multiple cybersecurity awards for enterprise messaging. We offer the best in security, functionality, and customization because your business works better when everyone works together.
Here is what Messagenius offers organizations that are ready to upgrade from Microsoft Teams.
Private On-Premises or Cloud Installation
No matter what type of installation you choose, Messagenius guarantees that your enterprise data is safe. We focus on clear data ownership, security, and enterprise privacy.
Choose from three private hosting options:
On-premise
on your enterprise private server for total data ownership and physical security.

where you retain data ownership and enjoy the efficiency of cloud operations.
Messagenius cloud server
created and dedicated for your sole enterprise use.
Own Your Data with
Private Encryption Keys
Messagenius operates a unique encryption key system. We hand over the encryption keys to you, and from then on, no one has access to your data except you.
As an extra layer of protection, we allow enterprises to have multiple holders of encryption keys. Splitting control minimizes the risk for data leak.
Secure Your Chats with Advanced Conversation Protection Features
Some people, meetings, and content need an extra level of protection. When your organization needs to move to a higher level of privacy, we have two kinds of chats to protect your people.
Black Box Chats
FULLY TRACKED & INDELIBLE
Know when, what, and to whom all the conversations have been sent within your enterprise. Messagenius Black Box Chats are always certified between sender and recipient. All messages are time stamped and come with a mandatory proof-of-receipt.
Black Hole Chats
TEMPORARY & SELF-DESTRUCTING
Protect your most sensitive data with Black Hole chats. Messagenius Black Hole conversations do not pass through any servers and leave no trace of their existence. Set up a timer, and once your message is open, the message always self-destructs and cannot be recalled from the server.
Achieve GDPR Compliance with Full Data Ownership and Clear Data Sovereignty
Messagenius is 100% compliant with GDPR and leak proof. We do not involve third parties to store, access or use your data. Even the team at Messagenius itself does not have access to your data. The requirements include:
Privacy by design
From the beginning, Messagenius has been designed to protect your data at the individual and enterprise level.
Transfer of data
Messagenius gives you complete control over where and how your data is stored.
Messagenius gives organizations a platform for secure business storage of data and compliance with every GDPR statute.

F.A.Q
Are there free alternatives to teams?
Yes, there are over 100 free alternatives to Teams. However, a large enterprise needs more than a small alternative. The completely free options lack key features, and the alternatives with all the features are not free.
Can you use Microsoft teams as an intranet?
Microsoft Teams is trying to achieve more intranet functionality, but it is not there yet. Third party apps are still being used to fulfill intranet functions alongside the collaboration tools offered by Teams.
Can external parties use Microsoft teams?
Yes, team leaders can invite guest attendees to meetings or to join a team. Guest users gain access to the chats and files being shared by your team members. While guests can view meetings, they could also gain access to sensitive information or private communication.
Are Microsoft teams self-hosted?
No, Microsoft Teams is not available as a self-hosted solution. For the ultimate in data ownership and privacy, you need a self-hosted solution such as Messagenius.
Is Microsoft teams available on premise?
No, Microsoft Teams is designed to function with SharePoint Online and the Azure Active Directory. While it may be possible to gain some functionality in a hybrid environment, the full features of Microsoft Teams are not available in an on-premises installation.
Can Microsoft teams be hosted locally?
No, Microsoft Teams works with Exchange and SharePoint Online. These are cloud hosted apps and not available as on-premise tools. This is because Teams aims to work together with Skype, Outlook, OneDrive for Business, and all the standard Microsoft Office apps.
Does teams use Active Directory?
Yes, Teams works through Azure Active Directory. This provides the necessary sync function for keeping people and workflows in sync.
