Need a convenient way to communicate with your team at work, no matter where they are? Slack can help. It puts all those different services that you need in the office into one place. Instant messaging, file transfers, group search and archiving so everyone can find what they need when they need it. Slack also hooks up with many tools that you use in the office such as Asana project management, Dropbox, Twitter and Zendesk.
Slack syncs across all devices so employees can seamlessly go from their devices back to their computers and then to their tablets all in the same conversation. The best part - slack is free, unlike most workplace apps that are paid services or freemium. No limits on how many employees or how long you can use it for! Just start communicating, it's that easy.
