1. The GUI - Slack has one of the best User- friendly interfaces I've seen on a messaging app. It's very compact, lightweight, and well organized. 2. Integration with other Apps - Slack offers the option to integrate with other apps such as Google Calendar, drive, and Zoom. Now I never have to miss a meeting :-) 3. Mobile Platform - Slack has a mobile application that works just as well as the desktop wone. Simila features 4.File sharing - File sharing and attachments have never been easier as it the case with slack 5. Calling Feature - That's right, it has a call feature integrated right within the app ( for both audio and video ) 6. Notification system - It has a nice notification system. Never miss a message or a mention. You can also customize the type of notification you want to receive. you can even set the DND mode to turn off notifications 7. You can create drafts that you can send out later

- hard to customize to explicit company brands across the entire platform - When there is an error, it can be hard to troubleshoot from a IT point of view. - Doesn't have as many options for screen share / collaboration offers as other platforms
