Overall Satisfaction with Slack

In our office, we use Slack for all internal communication, work updates, status reports, audio and video calls (huddles), and for various other tasks. We use it as one and only team messaging application daily. We can create a channel very easily here. Its so easy to use for our new members and also Integrates with many other collaboration and office tools. What i love most in this app is the customizable features. For birthdays, Work anniversaries, inductions related update all at one place. From new joiner induction programs to farewells, we use Slack exclusively for all occasions to send wishes. It’s very helpful for us to maintain smooth communication and complete projects efficiently. I think it’s not just for tech member like me but works brilliantly for marketing, HR, and even our remote colleagues.

Pros

  • Team Communication with Channels
  • Quick and Smooth Huddles
  • Notifications and Workflows Customization
  • Integration with Third-Party Tools

Cons

  • The audio and video quality is low, needs an improvement
  • Need some Offline Functionality
  • Sometimes the app is too slow
  • It crashed also multiple times
  • Increased Productivity of Employees
  • Cost Reduction through Smooth Operations
  • Employee Satisfaction Improvement
It has channel-based design simplifies communication(chat, huddles) and the powerful search lets me find anything instantly, while mobile apps keep me connected anywhere. Customizable notifications and Slackbot is also responsible of my rating. Its Easy-to-use interface also attracts me to use it daily in office. It also saves me time by automating routine tasks and processes, which reduces manual work.
our team's current non-Microsoft(Google) tech stack, hard-coded into our workflow. It's infinitely more customizable than Teams, easily meeting our requirements. Additionally, Slack has unlimited external users, whereas Teams has limitation, so Slack is the obvious choice for our company. For interview anyone can join just using an email address but for using teams must need a Microsoft email address.

Quick Team Projects: Our remote development team members can see updates in real-time, sharing files, and huddles in order to meet our target. Team Updates & Fun: HR shares in #announcements, team bonds in #shoutouts with emojis and birthday bots. Video Call Quality : Training 150 member via huddles lags, video quality also not so good all time.
