Slack Reviews

We're using Slack to communicate with other partners outside of our company. In most of the cases, it's for external communication.

Basically, it’s great for getting different kinds of groups with different partners - let's say one with the IT, one with the payment solution, into one place. It’s used just to communicate and nothing more than that. It's just a better solution to use instead of Skype or any other standard application.

It is easy to set up.

The solution is stable.

The product has the ability to scale.

The last time I tried to work with some other partners on the same document, we couldn't figure out a way to work on the same one. We actually have to have one person gather all the documents and then prepare one. It was actually taking way much longer than usual. We’d like it to have more capability for everyone to work on one doc in real time all at once.

I’ve been using Slack for three or four years.

The solution is very stable. It doesn’t have bugs or glitches. It doesn’t crash or freeze. It’s reliable.

I haven’t seen a lack of scalability. It seems like it would be easy to expand.

Most of our colleagues use the solution. We have around 100 people on the solution.

I haven’t used technical support. I can’t speak to how helpful or responsive they are.

We’ve also used Skype.

It's easy to set up. The IT team didn’t take that long to install it. There’s nothing wrong with that.

I don’t deal with the licensing aspect of the solution.

I'm not sure about the version I'm using. IT is taking responsibility for that.

I’d recommend the solution. It's easy to use. You just kind of need to use it more often just to get used to it and see how it works. It's nothing hard to figure out. It's easy to start.

I’d rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I use the solution to communicate with the developer community. If I have any issues, I reach out to them for troubleshooting. I also use the product to know about upcoming tool upgrades. We use the solution as a community to reach out.

We use Dependency Track. I had multiple issues during the configuration. I contact the tool developer using Slack to identify the issue. The developer provided me with a resolution, and the issue was resolved.

Sometimes, someone has already faced issues similar to what we are facing. Instead of asking the question again, we can search the question and look for the remediation that is already mentioned. The portal is at its best version now. There shouldn't be any changes. The solution provides two-factor authentication. The integrations are good.

Sometimes, the servers are not available. It is rare, but it happens.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I rate the tool’s stability a ten out of ten.

The tool is scalable. We have 20 users in our organization. Only some people in the organization do R&D work.

Overall, I rate the product a ten out of ten.

I use the solution mainly for chat. I go on spontaneous calls with colleagues. We also have channels for specific topics or customers and share workspaces with partners. Some of our partners also use Slack. So, we use shared workspaces and channels, which is a very good way to stay in contact with them.

The product is easy to use. It provides an easy way to stay in contact with partners and create workspaces. We can exchange information, have discussions, and search for information. We create channels for technical topics. It is quite useful to find answers because others in the team might have the answers to our questions.

The integration with SharePoint doesn’t work properly. It might be due to an access issue in the company. It is quite annoying. Sometimes, we cannot copy a shared document, but it might be because of the settings.

I have been using the solution for four years.

The tool is super stable.

The tool is perfectly scalable. The whole company uses it. We have around 1000 users. My colleagues at IBM have an even larger installation that works quite well.

Our organization has multiple tools, like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Webex. I can choose the one I like. I chose Slack because it is easy to use, and the spontaneous communications and channels are very useful. I prefer Slack for chats, channels, and exchanges with partners, but I prefer Teams or Zoom for web meetings, training, and webinars.

The product is easy to set up. The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I recommend people to start using the solution. And make sure you use the status feature and synchronize it with Outlook, so that people can see when you are busy. Overall, I rate the tool a ten out of ten.

I use the solution for communicating with all the teams. We can communicate with people from other countries.

The product is user-friendly. It is easy to use. The colors, the menu, and the sidebar on the interface are good. Push notifications work well on mobile devices. It is what I need. It is helpful and useful for me. I am happy with the video calls.

It is difficult to navigate the tool when I log in to two devices and start a video call. If I log in to two devices, I get logged out of video calls.

I have been using the solution for the last four months.

The product is stable.

Almost ten to fifteen people in my organization are using the solution. The product is scalable.

It is easy to set up the tool.

The solution is cheap in my country.

I have not used live streaming. I use the tool on both my desktop and on my mobile device. It works better than Trello. I would recommend the solution to others. Overall, I rate the product a nine 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.

I rate Slack an eight out of ten for scalability.

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.

I use Slack on the cloud as a SaaS service. I recommend Slack for better conversations in a product team.

Overall, I 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 product makes communication seamless. There are around 200 employees in my organization. If the HR personnel want to reach us, they use the channels to put up messages, posters, and banners for workplace events or blood donation drives. They use the channels whenever they want to spread information about anything.

Slack is a really good solution. We can see whether our colleagues are available or away. If we need to share any information within our team, we can create a channel and share the information. We can share technical and non-technical information like, HR information using the product. Information sharing is the feature I like the most. The product allows us to update our status to communicate whether we are away or out for lunch. We can also make notes to ourselves using the solution. It functions quite well.

The UI could be a little bit better.

I have been using the solution consistently for the last year.

The tool is stable. Many employees in the organization are happy to use the product.

The solution is scalable. As more and more people join the organization, they are able to use the tool.

The initial setup was easy. The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I work from home. I do not use the on-premises product. If people use it consistently, they will understand how to use it and communicate with their teams properly. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

The tool helped us with collaboration. Another use case for us was ticketing, where people who needed to take action could be informed immediately on Slack rather than over the conventional mechanism of emails. You need to look over hundreds of emails and then realize that there is a ticket. You can also collaborate to get document reviews done and avail feedback immediately rather than exchanging and putting it in our systems. 

I am impressed with the product's calls and screen share features which are very useful. 

I want a feature in the solution that will help me share documents only with the set of people that I prefer rather than all of them. I would also like the solution to have a feature similar to Microsoft SharePoint where you can group all your documents. 

I have been working with the product for one year. 

I haven't encountered any issues with stability. 

The solution is scalable and can accommodate thousands of users. I didn't see any problem with scaling. My company has 1500 users for the product. 

We use the solution's cloud version. 

I would rate the product a nine out of ten. The tool is a great collaborative tool that works well with teams spread across different locations. It helps them to come together and have a common workspace to work efficiently. Slack is a productivity improvement tool as well. My company has migrated to Teams since we subscribed to the Office 365 suite and switched to a standard communication channel.
