Slack Business - Enterprise Reviews

We use the product in the office for communication. It's our main channel for any communication.

Slack provides very fast communication. The communication is sent directly to me, so I do not miss out on anything. The product provides various channels to communicate. A channel is like a team, where all communication regarding a team is sent. The product gives the flexibility of having many channels. Communication is isolated and sent to the right person at the right time. Slack has a voice messaging feature.

The product crashes when I use it on the desktop. The product must improve user experience. It would be quite interesting if Slack works with Microsoft Teams.

I have been using the solution for six years.

The product crashes sometimes. I've never understood what the problem is. It happens intermittently. I don't know what really makes it crash, but it happens once in a very long time.

The solution is scalable. We are a huge team. We’re about 40 people. All of us use it seamlessly. It achieves our objective as a small team.

In 2006, we used IP Messenger. It worked the same way but could be used only in the office. We didn't have any visibility of the communication outside the office. It did not have channels. It had many drawbacks, and Slack solved a lot of those problems.

The solution is quite easy to set up. Anyone can easily set up the product, whether senior employees, junior employees, or professionals.

I use Slack on my desktop. I have it on my phone too. All communications reach me as soon as they are sent, whether I’m in the office or outside. I don't look at the product for improvement. I appreciate what the product is doing. I'm not an administrator. I am a typical user. I joined the Slack channel because I was invited. I have access to Slack as a user, not as an administrator. I used IP Messenger as a software developer for a medium-sized organization in Kenya. We could share files. We could send text messages and all of it. We couldn’t use IP Messenger outside the office. It did not have channels. 

For people who need constant communication and don’t want to rely on emails, Slack is the right tool for them. We can work on the mobile phone to communicate on the go. As long as we have internet connectivity, it is secure. We can create as many channels as we like and collaborate. We can also do voice calls and send voice notes. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.

I use the tool to communicate with my team because we work remotely since COVID. 

The solution has a great user interface and functionalities. It has good features that we can use. We can integrate any third-party application with Slack so that it provides you with insights and updates in real-time on Slack itself.

The solution needs to improve its scalability. 

I have been using the solution for four to five years. 

I would rate the product's stability a ten out of ten. 

I would rate the solution's scalability a nine out of ten. My company has 60 users for the product. 

The solution's initial setup is easy. You just have to sign up with your work email and you're good to go. We have deployed the solution on the cloud. 

The product is worth its money. 

The solution is expensive. 

You can use this solution if you want to give your employees a good experience in communication. 

We use it for internal communication, and we also use it for external communication or customer relations.

You can create channels between teams internally and externally, which is great. There is a lot of security with Slack internal, which is what I value. 

You can very easily share large files through Slack. Integration is easy.

Their notifications are generally not very prompt. There is a problem with their notification engine, and sometimes, I end up pressing on notifications. There are a few bugs there. 

It also tends to lag sometimes. It gets slow.

I would like to be able to do live streaming on Slack. Slack allows Slack huddle where you can do a group call, but it is not very well-designed. I'm not sure if it is going very well, but live streaming is one thing that I would definitely love to see. When you use Zoom, I like how you can run webinars. If we could do that through Slack, it would become an all-integrated platform. I would also like to be able to schedule meetings using Slack, similar to Zoom.

I would like to see better connectivity between Slack and Gmail where Slack can prompt me for some of the things from my Gmail. For example, there can be a prompt such as "This person has been mailed, and you can contact him through Slack." 

It should have an automated translator. It would be helpful for interacting with people who are multilingual. For example, I speak English, but the other person might not understand English. There should be an automated translator inbuilt into Slack for such situations. Instagram has a similar feature where for a caption, you can click the See Translation button, and it does the translation for you. This is something that Slack could add.

I have been using this solution for almost 18 months.

It is fairly stable.

It can be scaled very easily. We have about 20 people who use this solution.

I have not used their support so far.

It was straightforward. It took one day.

It is good. It is one of the best ones out there. You can definitely go for it. 

When you're partnering with teams outside your organization, you can't really do without Slack. It becomes a necessity. We chose this solution because Slack was the most widely used solution. A lot of companies that we partner with and a lot of our customers end up using Slack. So, for us to partner with them, we needed Slack.

I would rate it a nine out of ten. It is widely used, but they need to work on its features.

We use Slack for communication and announcements.

The solution is deployed on-premises. We have around 65 people using this solution in our company.

It's valuable for announcements and communicating between team members.

It also gives you the ability to have video calls and share your screen. 

There could be a read function so that when you send a message, instead of the other person having to add a reaction, you know that the message went through.

I have been using Slack for roughly three and a half years.

It has not crashed once in three years, so I would say it's pretty good.

The scalability is okay.

We haven't had any issues, so we haven't needed to contact technical support.

It's very simple. You just use your work email, sign in, and that's about it.

I would rate this solution 8 out of 10.

My advice is to use both the mobile and desktop versions.

We use it with our clients for sharing files and for communication.

We use thread-based communication. So that if a new person comes to look into a problem for a particular task, they can easily go and look into the particular thread it is discussed in.

We also send/download multiple files at a time.

It's also helpful that we can do group and individual calls on Slack.

There is a great search functionality.

 Sometimes there are login issues.

I have experience using Slack. 

It is stable. 

Slack is east to scale.

It is an affordable solution. 

Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten. 

I use Slack for team collaboration.

Tasks and team huddles are the most valuable features of Slack.

When I share any file with my colleagues, that file remains in Slack storage even after I delete the message. I need to manually delete them one by one. It would be better if Slack had a 'select all' option to delete all the files.

I have been using Slack for four years.

Slack is a stable solution.

I rate Slack ten out of ten for stability.

Around 20 users are using Slack in our organization, and we have plans to increase the usage.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy, I rate Slack a seven out of ten for the ease of its initial setup.

The solution’s pricing is cheap.

Overall, I rate Slack a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for basic communication such as chatting. 

Slack helps me to read bulk messages. 

The tool has stability issues that need to be improved. We are not native English speakers and Slack needs to integrate grammar checks. 

I have been working with the product for five to six years. 

I would rate the product's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has 5000 users on Slack. 

I haven't encountered any outages and hence never contacted the support. 

Slack's setup is simple. 

I would rate Slack a nine out of ten. 

Slack is a collaboration tool where you can create specific topic-related channels and manage different threads on different talks so people can interact and maintain a chat. You can use the solution to share files and to do a one-on-one or a group conversation. It's a multilateral functional collaboration platform.

Slack is difficult to scale. When scaled on a large scale, the solution's cost becomes a matter of concern for organizations. It is a large project to migrate from Slack to Microsoft Teams or any other platform.

Slack is a pretty stable solution. I rate Slack an eight or nine out of ten for stability.

Slack is a scalable solution, but not every organization can afford to maintain it. I rate Slack an eight out of ten for scalability.

The solution’s initial setup is complex.

It's up to the organization whether it wants to use Slack or not. Some people like the solution, while others don't.

Overall, I rate Slack eight out of ten.

The solution makes it easy to create groups, share documents, and communicate. 

Slack feels clustered and hence it should improve its design and UI. 

I have been working with the solution for six months. 

Slack is stable. 

I would rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has 30 users for Slack and we plan to increase the usage in the future. 

Slack's setup is easy and takes only a few minutes to complete. 

I would rate the tool's pricing a four out of ten. 

I would rate Slack an eight out of ten. I recommend the solution since it covers all the basic needs. 

We use Slack for communication, file sharing, meetings, text messages, etc. Slack has been so helpful for us.

Slack has made communication much easier in our company. I can text someone in the company or send a message. I can also have an audio call with a couple of team members on the go without needing to start setting up calls on Zoom or Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams. I can have that voice or video call right away on Slack.

The huddle feature that allows you to get on a call with a colleague is one of the best features of Slack. You can call someone on the go with the huddle feature and save the time of having to set up Zoom calls or Google Meet.

Slack should add a feature to schedule meetings. Users should get notifications or prompts regarding the meeting time so they can attend that meeting.

Sometimes, when Slack is down, there is a delay in messages being delivered. Such delays also need to be improved in Slack.

I have been using Slack for the past five years.

I rate Slack a six out of ten for stability.

I rate Slack a seven out of ten for scalability.

Slack’s initial setup was not difficult.

I use the latest version of Slack. Slack is deployed on-cloud in our organization.

I highly recommend Slack for teams that want to communicate and collaborate. Slack can integrate with other apps like Google Calendar and Loom for voice and video recording. I recommend Slack for teams that want to scale and collaborate.

Overall, I rate Slack a seven out of ten.
