Overall Satisfaction with Slack

I was intriduced to Slack to be part of several irtual communities. I loved the concept and I then started to use Slack to create clients' communities for my different projects.
I always introduce de the platform during my live event and invite my clients to join the Slack group afterwards. Easy to set up and quite efficient.

Pros

  • Keep track of members
  • Conversations are well organized
  • Easy to set up
  • Easy to use
  • Possible to ga back in time to follow threads
  • Conversaiton Threads are amazing

Cons

  • Although Threads are amazing, some people do notuse them spontanously : improve threads Response bubbles?
  • Sometimes a bit confusing to see the diference in Threads vs regular conversations
  • Notification for specific Slack groups? Or I might have missed this
  • Inviting new members on the free accounts ...not obvious
  • Notification to archive conversation before they are areased automaticall
  • + Allowed efficient conversation between clients
  • + excellent tools to follow up on projects
  • - some clients did not register and thought it was too much
  • - some clients could not register becuase of company policies
Still some obstacles for some clients to complete the registratiosn due to company policy ou technolitteracy.
Overall a great app to sue and easy to use however.
As I do not add members to my salck channel frequently I find the methods a bit difficult to find but I always find it. The distinction between memeber of my organisation and from outside is still nto clear to me ..why diferentiate between the two?
Overall I strongly recommand it to my clients and to my colleagues!
Favourably compare to all other tools I use.
The fact that LinkedIn and Facebook now have so much advertisment make Slack a much better choice.
Mighty Networks is amazing but way more difficult to set up and administer!!!
The functionalities of Slack ( even for the free version) are simply amazing and shoud help anyone desiring to seup a voncersation with a group.!

LinkedIn Learning (Lynda.com), LinkedIn Publishing Platform, Apple Keynote, Apple Numbers, Vimeo, YouTube Mentions, Final Cut Pro, iMovie, MindNode, Dropbox, Apple iCloud, Google Drive, Microsoft 365
Amazing tools for most group work.
Better than email of Facebook groups.
Maybe add to targeted notification (from specific people in a conversation)(because when the group is numerous, we start receiving too many notifications.
Slack might benefit form listing the diference bewteen it and other communication platform ( Teams, Facebook etc) to intive people to use it
