NextPlane requires complex DNS federation and on-premise infrastructure. SyncRivo is 100% cloud-native — connect Slack, Teams, Google Chat, Zoom, and Webex in under 15 minutes with OAuth2. No SIP trunks, no firewall changes, no IT rearchitecture.
Why Teams Switch from NextPlane to SyncRivo
Four areas where SyncRivo's modern cloud-native approach outperforms NextPlane's legacy federation model.
Deploy in 15 minutes, not weeks
NextPlane requires DNS federation records, SIP trunk configuration, and network changes. SyncRivo is OAuth2-based and cloud-native — connect two platforms from your browser in under 15 minutes, no IT infrastructure changes.
Modern platform support
SyncRivo natively supports the 5 platforms enterprises actually use: Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Zoom, and Cisco Webex. NextPlane's legacy federation approach wasn't designed for modern cloud-native messaging apps.
Straightforward enterprise pricing
SyncRivo is a single Enterprise plan with custom pricing, validated through a guided proof-of-concept. NextPlane requires a custom quote for every customer.
Cloud-native security
SOC 2 Type II certified, HIPAA-ready with BAA, zero message persistence, OAuth2 per integration, and per-tenant isolation — purpose-built for modern enterprise security requirements.
