What I like most about Slack is how easy it makes it to be part of a technical community. I've used an open-source community's workspace, and it is great having discussions, questions, updates, and knowledge shared by people in the same field and in the same org all in one place. I can follow conversations that are relevant to me, learn from what others are working on, and participate whenever I have something to contribute. The channels and threads are some of the features I really like, as they make it easier to keep track of discussions without getting lost in one big chat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I don't have many major complaints. If I had to pick something, it would be that Slack can feel a little overwhelming in very active communities. With so many ongoing discussions and notifications, it's easy to miss something interesting or lose track of conversations you want to revisit. I would also like to have a bit better search experience when it comes to bringing up old discussions when looking for a specific topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
