Despite seemingly similar features, companies frequently use both. Team’s growth has not slowed or taken Slack’s customers from what I see. It seems they both attempt to solve different use cases. I might be wrong.
We use both but Teams sucks
Teams integrate nicely with other Microsoft suite. I think they both solve the same problem but different audience.
Slack is more intuitive however teams seems to have an ecosystem integration. Looks like teams will outshine slack in the long run.
Watch discord take over everything out of nowhere loooooooool
I wish we could dump them both in the garbage and be free to work in peace without any annoying chat grabbing our attention all the time.
Teams has the full MS integration advantage but I agree that they are not direct competitors. Slack’s Pros: I love the **editable**, text-rich messaging composing feature. I wish Whatsapp and other apps would allow that especially with autocorrect changing my typos to weird things. Slack has a fantastic search functionality including threads that allows tracking your relevant messages, files, docs, attachments and ignore irrelevant ones; pinning relevant messages; smart use of emoji to communicate with a lot less text (:done: or eyes-looking, JIRA, on a code review request means not everyone else needs to read the thread inside) or you can do the opposite: start your message with a giant red emoji when you need to get peoples attention; great notification options (channel-specific). Cons: the UI is very crowded. Also, when you subscribe to many channels you’ll experience the same “bulk email/reply to all” problems. Particularly when people don’t know how to use the @here and @channel.

For now we use both but I don’t see the need for both . Eventually Slack will be obsolete
