Anyone know if there are go-to servers to use? Looking to try Matrix for a team of around 20 where client information can be shared privately
EDIT: mainly I was seeing if any of the public servers listed on joinmatrix.org/servers/ would be more recommended than others
Are we talking about a company?
Element provides hosted and on-premise solutions for companies: https://element.io/
Synapse is the server that's normally used and can be installed pretty easily: https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html
There's a list of public servers here: https://joinmatrix.org/servers/
But be careful if it's for a company, public servers might go down.
As frontend you can also use the Element clients or web interface, they are completely free.
No Windows server solutions? Synapse has Docker but I’ve had a hell of a time getting it up on my Win Server 2016 install.
I don't think Windows server is officially supported by Synapse so Docker, WSL or a Linux VM are probably your only chances.
