1 vs 5 Million - no lifestyle change
How does the company stay afloat if Microsoft can give Teams away for free (even if Teams isn’t quite as polished, functionally it has parity wirh Slack and the video conferencing capabilities are even better). Any Slack folks have some sense of what’s going on over there?
Some companies don't buy Microsoft products
As long as teams sucks it doesn't really matter how free it is
I think they are not supposed to sell it for free. They will face serious anti trust charges if they do it.
Teams is not free, it’s bundled in with O365. Slack costs more per head than GSuite or E1, which is probably not going to be sustainable
Same as other tech companies who have survived and flourished ....Zoom, WebEx, Symantec and other security companies. Microsoft products are free/ discounted ( via bundling) but people choose or stay on competitive products because either rhey are better, more polished or existed before someone tried to copy them...
My previous company used g-suit and Slack
Microsoft software is nothing but derivative garbage. It must be insanely boring to work at a company that innovates literally never.
Hey they have edge and the zune lmfao
What is Microsoft software derivative of? Other Microsoft software? Office Suite is one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century. Microsoft has crap pay and hires some dumb people but Windows and Office are some of the greatest pieces of software ever written.
A company that lets you send messages and party parrots IPO’d at 25 BILLION DOLLARS. A company that’s not needed and no lives/productivity will be changed if the said company ceased to exist tomorrow. It’s so weird people can’t see that this tech bubble will cause the next massive recession. 25 billion
Slack needs to lower costs so devs don't have to use the piece of crap that is teams
To the OP's point, when Microsoft includes Teams in Office 365, what is Slack supposed to do? They can't lower the price to free, they'd go out of business
Slack should build their own Microsoft office
