Not a single one with end to end encrypted DM's...
I use mumble for voice (encrypted to server, server is weakpoint), irc for chat on open networks (do it from a VPS, and use screen/tmux with irssi/emacs-erc for persistence), and am using bitmessage more and more. Haven't tried tor chat yet.
Tried Slack, and even for business purposes, adoption was horrible and it ended up being a wasteland. Honestly, I think this statement from the Slack twitter sums it up: "The idea is to have a public-facing channel that a user can participate in without being a team member!"
To me, webchat plugins for IRC accomplish this just fine, and to me, is more likely to get a user directly connected with a dev/engineer.
Maybe I'm just a leftover of the 90's though... I mean usenet is disappearing so fast, even though I still love it... but as a FOSS proponent, I will use a GPL product over proprietary even if it's harder, unless absolutely necessary.
