Overall Satisfaction with Slack

Daily communication for a remote organization is maintained via Slack, we live and breathe by it and could not live without it. The only improvement I see Slack could offer is confirmation when a message has been viewed by someone. Although I understand that viewed does not always mean it's been read and received, so a confirmation or acknowledged feature might also be necessary along with that.
  • Moment by moment chatting
  • Groups
  • Emoticons
  • Acknowledments
  • Threads
  • When has someone seen a message
  • Has seeing a message mean it's been viewed? Not necessarily
I was not part of the decision

Do you think Slack delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Slack's feature set?

Yes

Did Slack live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Slack go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Slack again?

Yes

It's well suited for daily communications among remote colleagues across the globe. It falls short where I do not know if a colleague has actually received or seen a message yet and there is no acknowledged functionality or 'viewed' indicator. This would be helpful, in my opinion, and something Microsoft Teams has as a feature.
