Overall Satisfaction with Slack
As we are a global company, we use it to collaborate across many time zones when we aren't able to actually meet. It is most useful when we need to communicate with APAC, Europe and the America's at the same time as usually one of us will be offline at least. As we mostly work from home these days, it is also essential for just day to day communication when a Zoom meeting isn't really needed.
- Private groups specific to a task or sub-set of people.
- Integrates with other apps like Google calendars etc.
- Understands that people aren't available all the time and has tools that help people stay offline when they mean to be offline.
- The requirement to sign back in periodically always happens at a very inconvenient time.
- Threads can be difficult to follow as notifications could be better about new replies to certain thread.
- Slack is crucial to our business as it is what links us all globally
- Slack is much easier to collaborate with than email as it is instant
It has been so long since I have used anything else but I have never seen anything that does more than just instant messaging where as this will open up what possibilities and IM app can actually have.
