I disagree. Slack is so much more than a discussion app. With integrations you can monitor your whole app in one place: - sales - bizdev - ops - deploymen

I disagree.
Slack is so much more than a discussion app.
With integrations you can monitor your whole app in one place:
- sales
- bizdev
- ops
- deployment
- support
Same goes for Notion.
We pay $16 but it is an awesome bang for the buck:
- crm
- collaborating blog draft
- project management
- finance
- knowledge base
And again, in one place.

- parasubvert 7y agoI think you underestimate how pervasive and usable Slack is over email. Email is still fine and necessary but is mostly for long form asynchronous communication. Organizing email inboxes is a pain. Spam is a pain. Slack is pre-organized and automatically integrated with a dozen other tools. It’s the beating heart of a distributed organization.
- fnord77 7y agonothing to do with "cool". I could never go back to email after using slack-like software. It's so much more efficient.
- OOPMan 7y agoThat is debatable. For sending IMs, sure. For a lot of other stuff it's pretty noisy and even with search is still less organisable than email.
- hombre_fatal 7y agoIt's debatable which is why the snark of "guess email isn't cool anymore :(" is such tired commentary, suggesting everyone is just an idiot lemming for not having email enlightenment.
