Description
Element is a communications platform with security at its core, built on Matrix: a decentralised and end-to-end encrypted protocol. Element brings your teams together, boosts productivity and workplace satisfaction, while enabling complete ownership of your data.
Easily collaborate with your partners, suppliers or clients with video calls and instant messaging: like email for the 21st century. You can even connect your Slack, MS Teams, WhatsApp accounts. On the other hand Element can be closed for high security environments using secure border and cross domain gateways, and even air-gapped deployments.
Being built on Matrix, there is no single point of failure for the network thanks to the decentralised network architecture, making it perfect for mission-critical environments.
For full data sovereignty, install Element into your own data centre or on-premise. Alternatively, let us manage your setup in our secure Element Cloud, in a region of your choice.
In Forrester’s words: Element is a great fit for: "...organizations that prioritize flexibility, federation, and data sovereignty".

Description
Threema is an instant messaging application meticulously crafted to minimize the collection of user data. Every communication within the platform is consistently protected through end-to-end encryption. Users create a unique Threema ID during the setup process, with the option to connect a phone number or email address. Unlike many free online services that rely on user data for advertising revenue, Threema operates on a paid model and refrains from gathering any personal information. In contrast to WhatsApp, which accumulates metadata that compromises privacy, Threema prioritizes user confidentiality. The app provides features to hide particularly sensitive conversations and secure them with a PIN or biometric authentication. It also allows users to make calls without disclosing their phone numbers, ensuring that these voice communications remain tap-proof due to end-to-end encryption. Furthermore, Threema boasts outstanding voice and video quality, enhancing the user experience. As a genuine Swiss enterprise, Threema manages its servers within Switzerland, ensuring a high level of data protection. All aspects of software development and customer support are conducted internally, reflecting a commitment to quality and privacy. Additionally, Threema is fully compliant with GDPR regulations, reinforcing its dedication to protecting user rights and data.
