Slack established itself as a leader in the collaboration platform tooling market with its innovative, persistent chat-based approach to teamwork. While Slack still successfully operates in this market, it is no longer the standalone dominant player.
Microsoft clearly recognized the value of this new productivity model and has made a significant investment in Microsoft Teams. The current feature comparison, continued roadmap of innovation, deep integration with Office 365 and the fact that this is already bundled with your current O365 licensing, makes a migration evaluation a no-brainer.
Why should you migrate from Slack to Microsoft Teams?
- Microsoft Teams builds off the Microsoft 365 platform, providing seamless and powerful integrated apps, as well as third-party apps
- Why pay high licensing costs separately for Slack, when Microsoft Teams is within Microsoft 365 suite and has all the features offered by Slack and much more
- In Microsoft Teams, the ability to create a structured ‘Team’ in the application adds extra security and data management capabilities by enhancing content structure
- Apart from data encryption, compliance certification such as ISO/IEC 27001 and two-factor authentication, Microsoft Teams is categorized as Tier D-compliant, meaning it’s at the highest level of compliance commitment, and all its services are enabled by default
