We checked out ichat last year as a possible alternative to digichat, but their platform wasn't compatible with our inhouse systems. They also don't have a hosting option... our internal ISP is even moodier than our webhost.

I've been swapping emails with ichat lately to see if they've changed anything with their backend technology, though.

Kremmen, what other chat systems can you recommend that allow moderated chats? We searched a few times last year, but other than digichat and ichat, all the non-java solutions were just front-ends on IRC servers.

TalkCity was one that we used to use, and they're pretty accessible, but they're ungodly expensive.

We'd be interested in a hosted solution that doesn't require the user to download any plugins and has a solid moderator system.
