Overall Satisfaction with Slack

With my team, we used Slack as a communication channel for events and announcements. Last-minute or quick changes would be handled on Slack. I would say this is not for the planning of large events or the preparation of tasks that need to be done.

Pros

  • Channels
  • Attachments
  • Adding people into chats.

Cons

  • Connecting to email service.
  • Make tagging people easier.
  • Cleaner user interface.
  • Communication is faster.
  • Brings team together with various fun channels.
  • Has a quick response.
I would say Slack is fairly easy to use. When you start, you can find channels easily and pick up a conversation easily with team members when you get onto Slack. The mobile interface is quite nice and has a simple visual design. I like the way you can comment on other members' comments.
My organization/company decided to move everything to MS Teams over Slack. The reason is the connection with MS Outlook and the way you can tag and search for co-workers throughout our national organization. This is what Slack is lacking, and that makes sense because it is not integrated into the larger system like MS Teams is. I do enjoy the casual nature of Slack and the variety of channels, as I mentioned before.

Do you think Slack delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Slack's feature set?

Yes

Did Slack live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Slack go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Slack again?

No

As mentioned before, Slack excels at facilitating the quick decision-making process that teams need. The conversations that need to be had during and after an event are what Slack is good at. I would not recommend Slack as a work application for planning processes, and where you constantly need to go back and forth between documents like Google Docs, Outlook, OneDrive, etc.
