Have you ever wondered how big businesses stay in contact with each other? With technology today, there are many ways for people to communicate, but what if you need to talk to multiple people at your office? There's iMessage but some people find it to be annoying being in multiple group chats. Well, there's a solution and it's called "Slack".
Slack is a new more productive way for teams/ businesses to communicate to get things done. It is available free on all platforms and has been proven to transform the way people work together. It has real- time messaging, you are able to file share and it is also possible to integrate with other apps such as twitter, dropbox, and Google Drive.
So how is it good for companies ? According to Matt Mansfield slack is considered the " collaboration for the 21st Century!" With all of its useful features, you have to be crazy to pass this up.
