If you aren’t familiar with Band, it’s a tool often used for coordinating kids’ sports teams, school bands, and similar small groups. You invite people to a private workspace which contains a post feed, events calendar, file repository (for permission forms or injury waivers or whatever), and a chat interface for 1-on-1 or group chats among workspace members.
Is anyone familiar with a similar tool that can be self-hosted?
My kids’ groups have tried using a mix of chat/SMS, email, and Google Drive in the past, but fractured communication leads to massive confusion. It’s really nice to have all group communication in one place.
Free is good, of course. But I also have some gripes about how Band functions so I’m interested to see what else is out there. Thanks for the Campfire recommendation; I will check it out.
