# Setting up your organization
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Use this as a checklist to get your organization off to a great start.
|
Welcome to Zulip! This page will guide you through trying out Zulip,
|
||||||
|
migrating your organization from other team chat tools (if needed),
|
||||||
|
getting everything set up, and inviting others to join.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Organization settings
|
If you are joining an existing organization, we recommend checking out
|
||||||
|
our guide to [Getting started with Zulip][getting-started].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Add an organization [icon and description](/help/create-your-organization-profile) to
|
[getting-started]: /help/getting-started-with-zulip
|
||||||
customize your login/registration pages as well as how your
|
|
||||||
organization appears in the desktop and mobile apps.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Do a [quick review](/help/review-your-organization-settings)
|
If you encounter any problems as you're getting started, please drop
|
||||||
of all the organization settings available.
|
by our [friendly developer community](/developer-community/) and let
|

|
us know!

## Choosing between Zulip Cloud and self-hosting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Whether [signing up for Zulip Cloud](/new/) or [self-hosting
|
||||||
|
Zulip][install-self-hosted] is the right choice for you depends on the
|
||||||
|
needs of your organization.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you aren’t sure what you need, our high quality export and import
|
||||||
|
tools ([cloud][export-cloud], [self-hosted][export-self-hosted])
|
||||||
|
ensure you can always move from our hosting to yours (and back).

## Create streams
|

|
|

Most messages in Zulip are sent to streams. Streams are similar to chat
|
{!create-streams-intro.md!}
|
||||||
rooms, email lists, and IRC/Slack channels, in that they determine who
|
|
||||||
receives a message. A few suggestions:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* It's often better to start with fewer streams, and let the number of
|
### How to create a stream
|
||||||
streams grow organically. For small teams, you can start with the default
|
|
||||||
streams and iterate from there.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* For large organizations, we recommend using a consistent naming
|
{start_tabs}
|
||||||
scheme, like `#marketing/<name>` or `#mk/<name>` for all streams
|
|
||||||
pertaining to the marketing team, `#help/<team name>` for
|
|
||||||
`<team name>`'s internal support stream, etc.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* A `#zulip help` stream can be useful for providing internal Zulip support
|
{relative|stream|all}
|
||||||
and answering questions about Zulip.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* For open source projects or other volunteer organizations, consider
|
1. Click **Create stream** on the right.
|
||||||
adding default streams like `#announce` for announcements, `#new
|
|
||||||
members` for new members to introduce themselves and be welcomed,
|
|
||||||
and `#help` so that there's a clear place users stopping by with
|
|
||||||
just a single question can post.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Add clear descriptions to your streams (especially public streams).

## Invite users and onboard your community

and [invite users](/help/invite-new-users).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* If you have an existing chat tool, make sure everyone knows that the
|
|
||||||
team is switching, and why. The team should commit to use Zulip
|
|
||||||
exclusively **for at least a week** to make an effective trial;
|
|
||||||
stragglers will result in everyone having a bad experience.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* If [everyone is allowed to edit topics](/help/configure-who-can-edit-topics),
|
|
||||||
encourage a few people to help rename topics for the first few days, while
|
|
||||||
everyone is still getting used to the new conversation model.

* It's often best to start with just a few streams, and add more as

needed. For small teams, you can start with the default streams and

go from there.

* For large organizations, we recommend using a consistent naming

scheme, like `#marketing/<name>` or `#mk/<name>` for all streams

pertaining to the marketing team, `#help/<team name>` for

`<team name>`'s internal support stream, etc.

support and answering questions about Zulip.
|

|

* For open source projects or other volunteer organizations, consider
|

|
adding default streams like `#announce` for announcements, `#new
|

|
members` for new members to introduce themselves and be welcomed,
|

|
and `#help` so that there's a clear place users stopping by with
