Discord is "Burning Man for Gamers."" — 5.0/5 > **Brendan** | *04 May 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to create a customized server for specific purposes or various different purposes. > > **Cons**: The monthly cost is quite expensive for what it offers, i.e., value for money is not quite there. > > Overall positive. I use it daily for gaming communication, professional networking, and personal communication. ----- ### "Discord for team communication" — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *31 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Team collaboration, video chats and ability to create channels. > > **Cons**: Keeps prompting me to switch audio devices, but I can simply dismiss this dialog. > > We rely on Discord for team communications. Its been wonderful. ----- ### "Discord - Collaboration Central\!" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *15 June 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Discord is an excellent solution for team messaging and collaboration. It has an a number of great features to make remote work seamless and is incredibly easy to use at a great price point. > > **Cons**: Discord has slight customer support concerns, members of my organization have had their accounts breached and struggle to get swift and clear customer support. ----- ### "One of the best messaging apps that continues to impress me" — 5.0/5 > **Alex** | *31 August 2026* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Discord has been one of the greatest messaging apps to come around in the last 20 years. Not only has it revolutionized communication between gamers but also expanded to the professional world as well. > > **Cons**: The ease of use and interface of Discord is by far the best out of all the messaging apps. Being able to create a server in a matter of seconds and manage it with really no experience in running one, just goes to show you how good this app is. > > I've been using Discord since it first came around and the amount of work and development that has gone into it has truly molded it into a team collab giant and an actual competitor to its competition. I'm always excited to see what they bring out next. ----- ### "Discord Review" — 3.0/5 > **Void** | *10 July 2025* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Discord is widely used so most clients and collaborators I need to speak with already have accounts. It has all the basic functions I need for communication - direct messaging, calls, group messaging, file sending, and a great server system. > > **Cons**: The program has so many issues and glitches, in particular the mobile version. The devs regularly make updates to the program that don't make much sense, while neglecting real issues. The addition of an integrated AI that cannot be removed or opted out of also makes it very frustrating to use as an artist. > > Overall it's still a program that I use every day, however that is more due to the lack of real competitors than loyalty. It used to be a program I loved, but it feels like every year it gets worse. ----- Page: 1 / 23\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/1022442/discord?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/1022442/discord) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
