You can easily defend that for only 6k with 'but we like it and we'll be more productive with it and we won't hate our jobs'

- 9dev 7mo agoyeah, but that wouldn't be honest. Slack is more pleasant to use, but not 6k more pleasant to use. I'd rather put up with Teams and get my devs a raise instead.
- craftkiller 7mo agoHow few devs do you have? Assuming a small startup of 12, you'd be able to give each dev a raise of $42 per month. Your devs would have to be severely underpaid to notice a $42/month raise.
- kstrauser 7mo agoAnd if you put it to a vote, "would you rather upgrade from Teams to Slack for $9 per month, or get $9 of taxable income more per month?", I think there's a very good chance you'd be switching that week. (I don't love Slack by any means. Still, I'd pay $9/mo out of my own pocket not to use Teams.)
