We’ve seen increasing interest in our ESS Community distribution from those looking for a free-use replacement of Mattermost Entry. Back in October 2025, Mattermost announced limitations as from Mattermost v11 for both of its free-use tiers (Mattermost Team Edition and Mattermost Entry).

Teams expect smooth collaboration. Regulators expect strong data protection. So, how can BFSI organizations keep up? One important part of this transformation is how people communicate.

But being both a user and builder gives me a unique perspective on what works. I’ve developed a system with Asana that keeps me focused on outcomes, not just shipping features. Given it’s January, I wanted to share three tips for how I approach roadmapping and OKR planning in Asana.

Business process standardization helps you run work in a consistent, repeatable way that supports scalability as teams grow. Instead of each team handling the same work differently, you rely on shared workflows and clear expectations to manage time, capacity, performance, and new processes more reliably.
