# Element

> Run team conversations on an open messaging network.

Element provides messaging and calling through Matrix, an open communications standard. Individuals can use its apps for conversations, while organizations can run a managed workspace for staff and partners. Matrix federation allows participating servers to communicate, including servers operated by separate organizations.

Deployment choices include self-hosted infrastructure and configurations for isolated or air-gapped networks. Desktop and mobile clients give people access to their conversations from their usual devices. For an organization choosing how to operate its communication systems, Element combines the app experience with control over deployment and a shared protocol for connecting with others.
