Self host a private Campfire chat for your team or organization

Campfire is a web-based chat application you can host for your own team or organization.

If you run a small business, chat is where day-to-day work actually happens: quick questions, sharing files, and keeping decisions from getting lost in email. Campfire gives you a private, company-owned place for those conversations.

Campfire lets you self-host a modern chat for each group or organization, so your conversations, files, and team history stay under your control. Compare Campfire with Mattermost when evaluating what self hosted chat solution fits your team best.
