They purchased Yammer and progressively made it a slower, added bugs, continued to degrade the UI/UX and messed up the authentication system, it became a dumpster fire.
- nikolay 6y agoTrue, my point is that Slack robbed Yammer and now they complain that Microsoft robbed them back.
- smcleod 6y agoSlack is a chat application, Yammer was a Facebook clone for businesses.
- nikolay 6y agoA chat application? :) No, Slack is an email replacement, just like Yammer was/is.
- smcleod 6y agoInteresting you see it that way, across the companies and consultancies I've worked with it would only be a replacement for maybe 20% of emails, it's just replaced whatever chat systems were previously in place (IRC/Jabber/Skype etc...)
- nikolay 6y agoThat's even how Slack advertises their own service.
