Slack is a though sell for a enterprise organisation with a large suite of Microsoft tools. Of course Slack is better than Teams the person making the decision doesn't care. Also Teams is good enough.

This is really the key here. Teams and bing search come free as part of the package so big corporations use it dispite not being very good

The idea that Teams is not very good is BS. Is it not as good as Slsck. I disagree. I find it better than slack for my usage. However, there are enough people I know who use both that have said it’s not as good as Slack.

But that does not mean Teams itself is not excellent software. It just means Slack is slightly more excellent.

And once you throw in how rapidly Teams has been improving, I think it’s a matter of months before Teams surpasses slack in almost every way.
