Pros

If you are a Microsoft fan or heavy user, then Share Point it is a good software for integration and share data and information between your people and clients.
I love how you can integrate Microsoft office. The large file support is great along with the ability to keep everything on your phone.
This software is great for the world of remote working and is a great solution to collaborating online. The program is user friendly and requires minimal training to understand.

Pros

The best features of Slack are its innovative interface and easy to use features. Slack makes it simple, and even kind of fun, to communicate with your coworkers quickly.
I like the different slack channels for various departments, tech-support, team, individual messaging, and celebrating my teams successes or helping each other out with account challenges.
Slack has been a winner for me no matter which role I am filling. Teams adopt it quickly it's easy to use, easy to set up, and has abundant opportunities for integrations.

Cons

Occassionally I will have errors when creating Sharepoint pages– such as the inability to change the column count, insert pictures, etc.
I would describe my overall expense as very poor and frustrating.
If there are too many documents that are not organized it can be hard to find what you need. I think that's mostly user error.

Cons

While they are only visible to me, I am always worried that I accidentally posted something wrong.
I disliked the inability to make a public group "private" after it's creation. Would occasionally lag and my.
I hate hate hate how often I struggle with using the video share and audio when someone calls me on slack. It almost never works for me.

This app is very good for sharing of documents amongst your team members for information and collaboration. I like the fact that it is web-based and yet still secure giving me peace of mind to share sensitive data.

Everything you need for data management

Reviewed 3 years ago

If it wasn't for the interface, I would probably say it's an A+ experience.

Pros

I started using Microsoft SharePoint when our team switched to Microsoft Teams from Slack. It's indeed handy when it comes to data management, sync, and collaboration. I like that we can work on the same document with my team, and there's a high level of integration between all Microsoft apps.

Cons

I still don't like the interface but it's a common problem for all Microsoft products. They need to add some freshness to their apps.

Microsoft's Most Retched Product Ever Made

Reviewed 6 years ago

Sharepoint is a complete waste of time and money.

Pros

The quintessential example of corporations buying terrible software simply because it was made Microsoft. While many companies still think that an "intranet" is a good idea, the simple fact is that they've never worked and aren't. Companies need two tools - Dropbox for sharing files and Slack for internal messaging - end of story.

Cons

Absolutely terrible user interface - hard to design with, hard to change and impossible to get anyone internally to actually use it.

Great collaboration tool

I love Slack. It's intuitive and easy to use but powerful at the same time. Yes, the fact that Microsoft Teams can integrate with the office suite seamlessly is convenient but I can live without that in exchange of a better and more reliable interface.

Pros

Great for working with distributed teams. Enables a digital workplace: people can feel as part of a team despite working remotely. Easy to use. Easy to organise projects into channels. Much better UX than Microsoft Teams.

Cons

It doesn't integrate with Microsoft Office like Microsoft Teams does (obviously).

Direct messaging is a must these days, with busy and remote workers. The different channels keep everything organized and ensure that the right people are getting the info they need, without bothering those it doesn't apply to.

Pros

I love the way Slack integrates with different apps like Google and Asana! It's very easy to share documents, coordinate calendars, and make sure everyone is up to date.

Cons

Unfortunately the cost is a challenge for our team, especially when Microsoft Teams is included already with our Microsoft subscription.

Pros

I love the ease of use, the many different options and plugins and customizations, and the integration of the desktop and mobile applications. Our devs adore it.

I wish the message history was easier to search. We have the paid product so we do have history save, but I still miss being able to search my conversation history from Skype for Business in Outlook. Also Skype for Business provides screen sharing which is useful in a corporate IT infrastructure environment, although I don't know how feasible it would be to add that to Slack.

Slack is very user friendly in terms of layout, and gives Microsoft Teams a run for its money. The ability to create groups for individual projects keeps clutter out of emails while also ensuring only relevant team members receive project communications for projects in which they're involved.

Slack is expensive compared to other collaboration services (Microsoft Teams, Skype, etc.). With Microsoft Teams included in our Office subscription, we're having a hard time justifying the cost of Slack.

Team and peer-to-peer communication has been so much easier compared to Microsoft products.

Pros

Search-ability: with other IM services we has no ability to search previous conversations. It made documenting problems that came up impossible. Channels: setting up channels has saved a lot of mass emails Screenshare: with employees in the US, India and Mexico we can easily communicate internationally, easily sharing screens

Cons

I really don't have any complaints. But the functionality does vary based on how much integration IT is willing to do.

Gets the job done, but not amazing

Reviewed 6 years ago

I wasn't too impressed with Slack overall. It's a good tool, but it isn't great. Microsoft Teams and Twist have come a long way to rival Slack (especially Microsoft Teams). Slack needs to make some changes to keep up.

Pros

The thing I enjoyed the most about Slack was the ability to integrate a large number of applications and services with it.

Cons

The Desktop Client is kind of slow and clunky compared to alternatives, and there are other paid (and free options) which provide more functionality nowadays.

Slack

Keeps us in constant communication

Reviewed 3 years ago

I stay in contact with my coworkers (and friends) and it's always so easy.

Pros

Slack is visually pleasing - I like that you can upload custom reactions and make it fun for everyone involved

Cons

Slack is great, but it's not quite as all-encompassing as Microsoft Teams.
