# Setting up your organization

|
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.

|
If you are joining an existing organization, we recommend checking out
|
|
our guide to [Getting started with Zulip][getting-started].
