Slack is a collaboration app for teams to organize communication across different channels, structure data with tags, and run virtual meetings with built-in conferencing tools. It's an ideal solution for communicating with others for personal, freelance, company, or cross-company use. Create channels for people in or outside your organization to collaborate, keep in touch with clients, or for personal use to connect with friends and family. Customize your channels with user access controls, custom apps, and many other helpful features.

You should consider Slack if...

• You need a way to instant message others through a private messaging tool
• You need to share files and other content with others over chat, and find them in a single place
• You want to create channels to organize team communication in central spaces based on a topic, project, or any category you can think of
• You need to automate routine tasks, like posting your weekly status update or sending a ticket for approval with a custom trigger
• You want to pair Slack with your favorite work tools, like Jira, Outlook, or Asana
