Overall Satisfaction with Slack
Slack is used by my organization to coordinate ongoing tours and communicate among team members where we are and provide updates to tour coordinators. It helps us to manage where groups are and manage different locations where there may be too many groups, or where we have to manage building occupancy.
- I really like that you can easily manage different groups of people for chatting. It is super useful when working with groups of people you may not know particularly well. It's more useful than other messenger apps as they are full of other distractions (games, etc).
- It has a really easy to use interface that is easily understood by most people.
- There is plenty of message storage, which is really useful when going back through messages to find information.
- When there are a lot of groups going it can get confusing which one is which. You can end up with tons of notifications from people messaging.
- There aren't a lot of customizable options. While this isn't super necessary and makes the app simpler, it would be a nice feature to be able to use.
- We use it to coordinate free tours to engage with high school students and their families about post-secondary options. We've received plenty of positive feedback about how organized and well-done our tours are.
This is the first product like Slack we've used in a professional setting.
