Rock has all the basic features of Slack, but without charge.

The ability to add Topics, Notes, Files and team was easy to use. It is good to see that one can establish text and video conferencing from the platform using industry standard tools such as Zoom and Google chat. File upload native to the platform and then using other popular tools is also helpful.

Rock is a great messaging tool for small businesses or startups that work a lot with freelancers. It mixes the chat features from the well-known instant messaging platforms, like Teams or Slack, with project management tools like Notion, Trello, or Asana. This allows to include freelancers or part-time participants in the pipeline with no hassle, communicating in an asynchronous way and being aware of what is done, what's being done, and what should be tackle next.
