  Platform risk is always there, but we see this as a highly targeted use-case outside of their core competency. The Salesforce acquisition spices things up a bit, but Slack's been great at supporting developers in the same way Apple did with the App Store

  That's not as much of a risk as people make it out to be. Being successful is a good thing, even if you are dependent on another platform. As long as you are adding something of value, you are more likely to get bought out by Slack than get ripped off by them.
