to be fair, teams has more users than slack because they effectively give away teams with o365, and then claim all the people who have o365 use teams. Lots of companies use o365 (so get counted for teams) then, use slack as there actual chat app.

With that said, our company recently switched from slack to teams, and its been a fairly annoying change. Teams is miles behind slack in terms of usability.

Since coronavirus Microsoft has the NHS (~1.7M employees) on teams.

I use both Teams and Slack and almost did a spit take at the idea of "switching" from Slack to Teams. I had noticed that Teams has more chat functionality than a meeting tool really needs, but I didn't imagine that it was intended to be usable as a company's primary chat system.

Yeah slack is definitely the superior product, I think it was a great strategy by Microsoft to give the free 1 year subscription. Gives them some time to catch up to slack.
