What advantages does Slack have over Zoom? Microsoft Teams seems to compete more with the latter than the former.

Zoom and Slack are very different products.

99% of value of Slack for our team is in the text-related features.

Yes, I know, but it seems most of the value Microsoft Teams provide is in its video conferencing capabilities. Why is Slack said to be competing with one and not the other?
