This is the point. People keep saying "it is just IRC" but the thing they forget is it is IRC+ with practically no setup. If you want Enterprise or consumer adoption, you must make it easy. Just like what you said with Dropbox. Install client, data automatically available everywhere I log in. That is the product and it actually solves a problem people have.
However, as we have already seen Dropbox has already been commoditized and is looking for a reboot. I see the same thing happening with Slack. It will be the king for a while but it has no moat.
