On-premise collaboration.

Element provides on-premise end-to-end encrypted messaging, as well as voice and video.

It's ideally suited to nationwide deployments and enterprises with substantial security requirements, as well as smaller organisations with technical expertise.

On-premise use demands in-house resources, and knowledge of both Element and Matrix.

Element provides support, bridging and an admin app for on-premise deployments with more than 250 users.

Support starts at $3 per user, per month.
