I really like the fact that Microsoft stresses the security of this product:
Broad compliance standards support
Data encryption at all times, at-rest and in-transit
Multi-factor authentication for enhanced identity protection
The only other thing I think they didn't mention in the feature set that Slack is much better is 3rd party API integrations.
- artursapek 10y agoI've found Slack's API integrations to be mostly used as distractions from work, but that may just speak to the team more so than Slack
- krisdol 10y agoIf you don't find its API integrations useful, then why use slack over just about any other communication software? For us, the API integrations are huge. Slack is our one-stop hub for finding out what's happening throughout the company with integrations for PM tools, Monitoring, Alerting, Deployments, Build Systems, Support Emails, AnswerHub, GitHub, etc. And of course, giphys.

- monkmartinez 10y agoI am guessing here, but outside of "developer teams" how many businesses and people give a crap about 3rd party API integrations? They wouldn't really have a use for them unless someone happened to be a hobby programmer on the side or something. I guess MSFT could create a marketplace for said bots/integrations....
- WorldMaker 10y agoMicrosoft is definitely building a marketplace for bots and integrations.
