Hi Tom,
What are the external users' limitations (if any)?
Seems strange to only charge for same email domain if that's so easy to
spoof.
If that's the case, why do you even bother to pay for two members and not
just one?
Thanks!

Bear in mind that even if their policy has changed, you can get away with
using Podio with very few chargeable users. We have 10 users as part of
our agreement with them, and despite having over 50 people on Podio across
the various workspaces, we only use 2 'paid' accounts as we have two
members of staff running the hub- Podio doesn't charge for 'external users'
which it defines as those with different email domains as the 'paid users',
so if there are two of you running a hub with 100 members, you only need
two paid users at $5/month each.

Tom,
How long ago did Podio do that? I believe their website (now, anyways)
specifically states that they don't do special nonprofit pricing. I wanted
to get in touch with them recently about exactly that until I saw their
site.
Thanks!

Hi there- we use Podio, and hugely recommend it. It's similar to
Yammer, but you can build your own drag and drop apps (or use thousands of
community built ones for free), so you can customize it to your particular
space/workflow. We have tens of workspaces on it- and used it for our
redevelopment, for our staff onboarding/training/HR, for our marketing and
brand library, our press cuttings, and yes, even for our members
intranet/chat (it's got a great built in chat client as well as campfire
style commenting chat/likes/voting buttons etc.
If you are a not for profit (as we are) then it's worth getting in touch
with Podio- I think it's $5 a user per month but they waived that for us in
return for a link on our site.
Cheers

Hello everyone,
We are a coworking space in Jersey City, NJ area and seeking a platform
that helps our members communicate/chat and also start some discussions
between them. This would help them to collaborate, socialize and help each
other with any needs.
For example, they could be able to post some requests based on their
needs as well as just share some useful information about anything.
Based on some research we came up with Hipchat, Campfire and some other
IRC platforms. However, we are not just looking for chat softwares. As I
mentioned above, the conversation should remain permanently instead of
disappearing chat windows.
We also have found Alche.my and requested from them to try demo but
they didn't contact with us yet.
Hope you understand what we need and come up with a solution or idea
for us!
Thanks!..
