Overall Satisfaction with Slack

Slack is being used for direct messaging and for team communications. It helps in communicating with large group of users while keeping the conversation focussed (when required) by tagging the relevant individuals in the slack channel. Mobile app is also very user friendly and notifications feature is pretty handy. Huddle feature allows for quick group meetings for adhoc/on-the -spur meetings.
  • Slack Channels for different groups of individuals for different initiatives.
  • It is very easy to sign up for and use as a tool - Intuitive.
  • The "Threads" feature is very helpful in NOT missing out any replies
  • Ability to Save convos that you might want to return to is very helpful
  • Screensharing with zero overhead
  • Connectivity with external vendors over slack
  • Reflecting the availability status of an individual based off of integration with other products e.g., Microsoft Outlook. Currently, it does indicate that there is a meeting on Outlook but syncing the status takes it a step further.
  • Search feature can be made better with the ability to search based on a certain criteria like a Person etc. This feature is not as mature as it can be.
  • Slack Channels
  • Screensharing
  • Huddles
  • Positive -> Easier collaboration as and when required with the ease of use of the tool.
  • Negative -> Too much communication (partly because of the ease of use) which might result in introducing a lack of structure and makeing it overly informal.
Easy to setup and use compared to other similar products.

Screen sharing makes the discussions a lot more effective.
