“The only platform that made communication possible”

Rocket.Chat was, more often than not, the ONLY way that my Special Operations Task Force intel team and I could coordinate with our interagency counterparts. It always worked, it was universally used and respected, and it made otherwise-impossible cross-domain and cross-organizational communication possible.
