We tried out slack calls as a potential SfB replacement. They worked well unless we had a participant on a low-bandwidth connection, in which case it fell apart for everyone. Or possibly high-latency, we never did track down the precise trigger. Unfortunately the person most likely to be on the slow connection was the boss.
- Normal_gaussian 7y agosurely that is fortunate? Too many businesses end up making random employees suffer greatly because senior management are blind to the reality of their struggle.
- regularfry 7y agoUnfortunate in that we couldn't then recommend it as a Skype replacement. The boss in this case was middle management, not senior. It left us with no other options which had already gone through our internal compliance team, and their stance is fairly firmly "we've already got a tool which does X, another one increases the attack surface".
