I worked at a place where employees lobbied for Slack endlessly until we got rid of HipChat because -- and I am being completely serious here -- you can't upload as many custom smilies in HipChat.

On the other hand you have to manually resize things for Slack, whereas Hipchat would autoscale and let you crop too. So annoying.~

That was one concern we had where I work, but Slack does many things better—not just unlimited custom emoji.
