Boring - It's messaging without any kind of twist
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Twist for project-related communication. Team members are assigned to project chats to help keep conversations focused and on track. This provides for an archive of relevant conversation.
Each project gets its own channel, and the appropriate team members are assigned.
We can post text, share images, and attach files as needed to keep a project on track.
Within each channel, we can have separate conversations for different issues/tasks.
