Overall Satisfaction with Slack

We use Slack as an internal-team productivity management tool. It allows us to create groups on various topics of interest and write, comment stuff on them. We use it to discuss our design, deployments and more. We can also create threads with topics as well and it allows one-to-messaging.
  • Add multiple company domains and seamlessly switch between them
  • Thread Management in topics
  • Inter Team Communication
  • Mobile App
  • The topics or channel listing can be like Whatsapp
  • Automation of tasks, reminders, calendars
  • Channel / Topics and seemless people management on them
  • Threaded conversations
  • Multiple Domain logging and switching
  • Improved productivity by 25% to 30%
- MS teams Vs Slack - Slack athread View is incredible - API integration helps with our product - Multiple Domains Login is seemless - Google Chat Vs Slack - google is too messy. Great for chatting and productivity as individual tools. But as integrated productivity management is painful - Google is a disintegrated tool, challenging to manage information

Yes

Did implementation of Slack go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Slack again?

Yes

In my opinion, not super great for agile product management. In my opinion, it's too tedious. In my opinion, not great for documentation as the thread view is great for discussion but does not work wonderfully for documentation. In my opinion, documentation needs a Wikipedia kind of viewing
