Rocket.Chat als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Teams (legacy)
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Rocket.Chat is a solid replacement for Microsoft Teams (legacy) for organizations prioritizing self-hosting, open-source software, and data control. It covers core collaboration needs: persistent chat, video conferencing, file sharing, and team workspaces. While the interface is less polished than Teams, it’s stable and feature-complete for most use cases. Best suited for technical teams or privacy-focused organizations willing to manage their own server. Avoid if you rely heavily on deep Microsoft 365 integration or advanced meeting features like live captions or breakout rooms.

Ihre Microsoft Teams (legacy)-Dateien öffnen
Rocket.Chat allows file uploads and sharing, but does not natively open or convert Microsoft Teams-specific formats like .teams files or meeting artifacts. Shared documents (PDF, DOCX, PPTX) can be uploaded and viewed, but version history is limited to file replacements, not document-level revisions like in OneDrive. Exporting chat history includes attached files, but no direct import into Teams. Migration of historical files requires manual download and re-upload.
