Overall Satisfaction with Slack
We use Slack almost entirely for internal and some client communication. These days, we use it more than we use email. It makes communication swift, simple, and organized. The search feature and thread capability are especially helpful for me. The thread feature helps ensure that people can have eyes on each other's conversations in case there's something that would be relevant to them, but it also keeps the chat from getting too busy.
We have numerous different channels for different functions at the company (marketing, creative, sales, general chat, random). It's a great way to connect with people in other departments, which can be particularly nice in an entirely remote company.

- Groups based on departments, entire companies, and other project groups so you can reach the right people
I would choose Slack a hundred times over Teams. I find the interface to be much friendlier and there are more robust features -- not to mention gifs and custom reactions.
