Everyone is talking about how this won't be a good chat app, but isn't this more like Jira than Slack? If it's a good alternative to Jira, I'd be glad try it out. I personally can't stand Jira, and not able to use VSOnline. I just never have a suitable alternative to suggest when I found out a team needs to use it.
- ProAm 9y agoExcept you only have 18 months to use it before it's abandoned.
- oldcynic 9y ago...and 3-6 before they release a new Hangout Business Chat or some such that's better because.
- AgentME 9y agoIt's like Slack, but with a slightly different conversation threading model (and more Google integrations). Ostensibly its conversation model is better at keeping different conversations separate within the same room.
- mirhagk 9y agoI'm curious, why can't you use VSOnline?
- Pigo 9y agoBecause the place I'm at now doesn't have msdn and a lot of Microsoft buy-in by the developers. It probably works with other tools, but I know it's tied into VS very nicely. If it were my choice, that's what I'd like to use. I think it works great and is intuitive.
