Overall Satisfaction with Slack

Before Slack, fragmented communication and the volume of emails exchanged internally created a problem that needed to be nipped in the bud. As the company grew, with new offices opening around the world, we needed to respect different time zones and integrate separate tools and solutions to streamline work. So, we adopted Slack

Pros

  • With the JIRA integration, our folks can pick a ticket and respond instantly. This saves time and prevents delays caused by email, which is how the team used to operate’. The team now responds much more quickly. What’s more, the person raising the ticket is automatically notified when the problem is solved, removing the need for lengthy back-and-forth communication.
  • The company culture feeds off the sense of connectedness that starts with channels and Huddles – an audio-first way to communicate – used by employees each day. ‘Huddles is a big part of our every day
  • Slack analytics to measure engagement and sentiment, while multiple wellness surveys each month provide the necessary data

Cons

  • More visiblity into Channel level Analatics
  • Fine-grained admin roles & premissions
  • Slack helped in the vendors and partners participate in a culture of collaboration, as channels are shared to save time and allow for real-time communication with external contributors.
Slack is a huge part of daily operations to collaborate internally or externally.
  • Google Hangouts (Classic)
not much function as Slack offering. Public & Private Groups creation not available in Hangout

Slack permeates MiQ’s systems and allows the company to use it for almost everything, from fast employee onboarding and vendor communication, to support of remote work, to analysing and contributing to employee wellness and engagement. It’s akin to a village square where the company can find their voice, share clear communication, get work done, take part in celebrations and connect with external collaborators.
