Likelihood to Recommend
Slack is well suited with it's ability to connect with external applications. Our team uses this to link / preview external documents (such as Google Docs) on our canvas. This is especially useful for us collating ideas or building up the runbook which requires us to link to the documents of other teams' due to linked processes.
