What problems is Slack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Slack makes work so much easier by keeping all your team chats, files, and tools in one place, so you’re not juggling emails or switching between apps all the time. It helps you stay organized with channels for different projects, lets you quickly find past messages, and makes decisions faster with things like polls and reactions. Plus, it’s great for remote teams, with video calls and real-time chats to keep everyone connected. It’s secure, super easy to use, and just makes teamwork a lot less stressful and way more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Slack?

Being able to integrate with various other products as well as being able to collaborate with co-workers in a meaningful way.

It's very easy to use and all employeeds have been able to adopt using it without issues. Being abel to implement it throughout the company in all various departments has been helpful for depertmental work, but also for collaboration across the board.

We use it all day, everyday within the company having created channels for each department.

Having a dedicate Customer Support channel has helped both the support team as well as other departments have a broad overview of issues and jumping in where needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Slack solving and how is that benefiting you?

Slack solves intedepartmental collaboration. People from various departments who don't talk everyday or keep track of each other's schedules can have an overview of who is online and when they are not avalable such as when they're in huddles or meetings. Additionaly sharing documents and integrating into other tools the company uses has been a major benefit in this matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For in-person work environments, Slack helps limit interruptions. Rather than walking over to someone’s desk or having a lengthy in-person chat, a quick message on Slack can be just as effective, allowing people to stay in their flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
