Why teams look around

Why teams look beyond Slack

Slack is the standard for team chat. These are the common reasons small teams look for chat somewhere else.

  • Chat is only part of the work

    Tasks, docs and meetings live in other tools, connected by apps and links.

  • Several per-seat bills

    Chat, tasks and docs each charge per user, so a small team pays for the same people several times.

  • History on the free plan

    Some teams want the whole workspace free for a small team, not a time-limited message history.

The board is one click away

When a thread ends in a decision, the board, the spec and the calendar are already in the same place to act on it.

  • A board and a list for every project
  • Pages and whiteboards
  • A shared calendar with booking links
