I agree re: Netflix and Dropbox. Salesforce acquired Slack though.
The main issue with a thesis about Slack is that for some completely unknown to me reason, nobody has even attempted to make a competitor. Discord is the closest but using both I don’t think I could use Discord for work at all. It’s just off.
- maxerickson 5y agoIs this a Teams joke?
- WaffleIronMaker 5y agoNo, Teams is a joke.
- sofixa 5y agoA bad joke.
- usrn 5y agoXMPP still exists.
- hotpotamus 5y agoIRC still exists even. I was recently told that it's basically Dischord for old people and I can't really disagree with that perspective from the eyes of a kid today.
- altdataseller 5y agoTeams and Mattermost are competitors
- onphonenow 5y agoZoom is trying to compete in that space and doing pretty ok
- ericmay 5y agoYea Zoom has a chance to make some inroads here. It's not even close as of today but that doesn't mean it can't get better.
