For a start it is free, the UI is better, cleaner, easier to assign permissions, you can post links and get to preview what it is, think facebook timeline feed but with an in-built talk function similar to TS.

You can either download the app, or you can run Discord via the browser.

You can have as many talk and text chat only channels as you want, you can have as many servers as you want.

I have had a few issues with it but tweeted the dev team and got a response within 5mins each time.

The usage on cpu is very low and it can be minimised to run in the background if you are not interested in having the UI open.

You can mute other players from talking, you can also set a different volume for each user.

The voice recognition comes through clearly and imo better than TS.

Sometimes you can suffer random dropouts but they last seconds before you get reconnected.

We have had around 15-20 people using it at one stage and it doesnt seem to suffer any negative side effects.

Ive not really come across any distinct disadvantages apart from it having no soundboard option, but I believe that will come soon although maybe in a paid for feature per user.

I would recommend spinning up a discord server of your own, literally takes a few minutes via the website and playing around with the settings.

Members is where you create new users and also assign them to specific roles a member can be apart of multiple roles Hope the above helps.

On Teamspeak I could set up a user that would just play music to everyone in the channel but it would seem to be impossible on discord as you can only have 1 instance.

Is Discord here to stay Im trying to maintain a community and for me the stability of the server into the distant future is very important for me.

Its nice for members to go AWOL but can easily come back because the ip doesnt change and TS is quite user friendly, for me at least.

We found most TS hosting companies were very unreliable, I eventually hosted one at work and was stable for that time.

Since changing jobs we had to get rid of it, and since found Discord.

Discord is a lot more polished than TS in the way you do pretty much everything in it.

The only area Ive noticed TS being better than Discord is that the audio quality isnt quite as good as TS.
