Overall Satisfaction with Slack

The entire HuffPost organization uses Slack. We have separate channels for editorial, products, and engineering. It is a great way to communicate with multiple people in various departments or a group of people in one department. The Slack integrations for Github are very useful to the engineers. We also have a bot built in that communicates any known technical issues with internal systems to the other departments.
  • GitHub integrations
  • Private channels vs public channels
  • The mobile app is amazing!
  • Threads are sometimes confusing
  • Better communication
  • Better productivity
Any business can use it as a very effective and easy tool.
