Nadella has transformed Microsoft from the evil kid, to the cool kid, everyone wants to be around. It is really impressive how well Nadella executed that transformation and still is. The move to become part of Atlassian was very good but with Microsoft going full on 360 armoring themselves from every possible angle with the acquisitions of Github and linkedIn the future seems grim for a lot of competing companies.
@digiryde4 жыл бұрын
So, more of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. Just with open source used against open source. What happens when enough extinguishing has been done? Is Nadella really in charge of MS or is he just the CEO de jour? The ultimate bosses of MS are the shareholders. For this to be happening there has to be something that the true owners are getting which they want. In the past, Microsoft has done this. It eventually led to the anti-trust suit that GW Bush put an end to. History often repeats itself. As much respect as I have for what I see coming out or Nadella's term, I also know that he is ultimately only in charge at the leisure of the shareholders. The shareholders tend to go through cycles and eventually they swing from altruism and cooperation with the world, in general, to grabbing profits as the 1000 lb gorilla. The question becomes, where are we when the pendulum swings back and Microsoft owns IP in everything? So, I see this as a double-edged sword. I am only waiting for it to swing back again the other direction. I really do hope I am proven wrong over forever.

Microsoft's Teams, LinkedIn, GitHub are great (not sure what the "slowly killing off" refers to (self irony?)) MS is a different company since Nadella became CEO. He rocks, and it shows everywhere, including their stock price.
Having used Slack and now Teams. Microsoft has really pushed the development of Teams' integration into the O365 product ecosystem. MS has already ported over just about all features from Skype for Business into Teams and now the integration into Office/OneDrive/SharePoint is nearly seamless and getting better by the day. A few years ago Teams had very few features to justify using it over Skype for Business and/or Slack but that has changed drastically. It does feel like the Netscape vs IE days again. Slack will still have a place among smaller firms, especially those that aren't already subscribed to O365, but I can't see Slack realistically competing with Teams in the long term for dominate market share. Like Scott said, there is very little incentive to move from Teams to Slack, but there is going to be a ton of incentive for firms currently on Slack to move to Teams, especially if they use O365 (most companies do). I definitely wouldn't hold on to Slack stock long term.

Professor, there is another factor at play. In big enterprises there are many teams that don't really get along with the "cool tools" like Slack. Think legal, accounting, finance, HR, etc. People from these functions are still using things like Lync or Skype for Business and they are more likely to adopt a MS product, which looks and feels like what they already know, than the cool solution. In my experience, it was been way easier to convince a coworker from these functions to use Teams. HR doesn't really care about connecting apps or bots that order lunch, they need something that is easy to use and allows them to chat with other people from around the org.

Slack Pros: 1. Cool UI (This is very important to keep-up employees' productivity) 2. Reply/ Quote feature for individual chat 3. Global Search 4. Better Support 5. Drawing feature in screenshare Slack Cons: 1. Low Call Connectivity (We fixed this by using free Zoom subscription, do you know that you can replace default call button with zoom) 2. Remote access in video - This too taken care by Zoom 3. Cost (Just try asking them in ticket to reduce the cost, they will do it. We have had experience) Teams Pros: 1. Together mode in Video 2. Video & Call Quality 3. Office files editing & One Drive integration Teams Cons: 1. Worst UI/UX - Coming from slack makes teams look like Windows 98 2. Restrictions - For example: if you make a channel private, you cannot move it to public again. vice versa. 3. Conversations - Still many features like direct reply is missing. 4. Half baked Integrations without bots. 5. Remote access feature is not stable. Their support accepted this flaw and still not fixed. Final Comments: If you are not a windows person, don't even think of Teams. Its still not matured enough as Slack. The only disadvantage of Slack is on the video/call, this can be replaced by Zoom . Our vote is for SLACK!

I've always said Slack needs a buyer. The cost of running Slack on its own without being bundled with any other productivity software, including the lack of conferencing will give too many reasons for many orgs pick Teams.

Software developers are by far the biggest champions of Slack, but I'm sure there are orgs out there that Teams is simply the better fit particularity where Office integration is core.

How stupid(Hipchat is gone btw), both Slack and MS Teams are build on Electron. And Microsoft has extensive experience with building Electron apps for example Visual Studio Code. They both have the same limitations of Electron. (Which is just a browser, actually) So they have both the same UI/UX speed limitations. Also i think when you use Teams now, it's alot faster i think. Also: Microsoft OWNS Electron. (The foundation which Slack is leaning on) So Microsoft can increase performance of Electron, and Slack cannot. Otherwise they have to fork that MASSIVE project. (They can't, don't have enough cash for that) Electron came from Github, and Microsoft aquired Github. Slack will slowly dissapear.

The thing that will save slack if anything can it’s development shops that use non-Microsoft solutions. MS shops tend to stick to MS just because the billing is easier and development moves faster. Why use Jira, AWS, Slack and Gmail when developing .NET code if MS can handle all of it for you with one payment and give you Azure, Teams and O365. Places that develop code based on Python and Java are going to be Slack’s Luke Skywalker. If Microsoft wants to Alderan Slack the easiest way to do it is to make it a free add on to any of their other business solutions. Are you a dev shop who wants MSDN to get your developers Visual Studio? Here, have Teams. Are you a small law firm looking to handle documents, email and presentations on O365? Here, have teams. Easy way to knock them out. Slack is nice, I’ve used both, but Teams is going to just become embedded into everything MS.

few misconceptions in video by the author that never worked in big corp using Ms services: - instead of thinking as MS tries to kill competitors in NEW martet, it merely tries to catch up it's own market of Skype For Business/Lync that IS a part of office business plans and IS long due for renovation in everything that is not direct calls or meetings. that's like telling that Win 10 tries to kill Os X, while it's natural upgrade path for Win 7/8/8.1 - slack is good at two things - compact messaging platform, like chats in the IRC era were, and sending pictures. even though it has some annoying integrations for viewing docs/pdf, it's still easier to click on doc, click download, click open folder, and finally see document in native app. - teams shines in calls, collaborations, sharing content during video calls, AND having design match the behavior: in slack each message look like a chat message but behave like post(you can create a thread on it), though notification wise it's more like message (imagine Folks A B and C discussing something on top level, than comes D and asks something page up as a thread on message of B. there wont be any notification for A and C, and thread itself is only showing as a link, one page above, expanding in sidebar.) teams treats and displays each message as a separate post, so if it has newer replies than post after it - it gets pushed down as most recent one, immediately displaying few most recent/unread replies under it, and having the ability to expand it there. it also has chats tab, where everything looks and behaves as... chat :D

Teams with Outlook integrated everything including creating forms, power apps, tabs, and a slew of other capabilities that Slack just can't provide. The choice was made because some of our partners used slack, but as an enterprise tool Teams is just better to manage and has better control. Once Teams gets private channel security and our contract is up, I'm going to make the argument that we should move to teams and dump all of these other services.

Teams = loved by business users => key bundle is the office suite Slack = loved by developers => key bundle would be the developer suite Good fit with Atlassian, but Microsoft acquired GitHub. That would have been a key piece

as a Teams user, I much prefer Slack. Both Slack and Teams have the same annoying problem, if I'm in a channel and something occurs in another channel, I get nothing. Also, notifications on my phone from Slack work inconsistently. I have to be running Slack in the foreground for some strange reason.

Using Teams with Office 365 in a small business at the moment - 12 staff. We're finding Teams rather clunky to use and with low uptake with the staff. Usability is key and if it was more usable I am sure there would be high uptake. Has anyone used both Teams and Slack? How do they compare to actually use? Having lots of features isn't enough.

I don’t know how it works in the US but in Europe, lots of enterprises has Office and the just choose Teams because it easy and quick to add to there accounts. So Slack will have to fight till blood is behind there eyes, to win this in Europe. Can someone please end this Microsoft terror!

Been working with Slack for the past year. Before that, at a previous job, we were using the early stages of Microsoft Teams. Even with early stages experience, there is not a single day I wish the new company I now work for switches to Teams. It's that good. IMO

Hello guys, I will talk from tech perspective and as a software engineer who works in MSFT. To be truthful, I hate Teams and so is with many colleagues. And because we don't have any choice, we hope that Teams will eventually become as good as slack someday. But trust me that day seems far away.

Amazing as always! Just a bit of extra sauce: Slack has not evolved as a product since ages, their calls feature is awful, and it's not designed to scale as a company does. Those three points are exactly the opposite with Teams. I'm using both at work and we consider them products that yes, overlap, but have quite different purposes in practice. I've used and loved Slack for ages, eg for integrations, but ended up hating that the interface enhances noise instead of reducing it and that the admin tools are a mess and the help docs are Never up to date. I arrived to Teams just months ago and definitely not a fan on some of its features, but having used Zoom, Hangouts, Skype, and almost all other videoconference tools under the sun, in that area Teams is spectacularly ahead. That's the superpower of Teams itself, beyond its placement on the MS ecosystem. Also I think Steward, despite being a wonderful leader in many aspects, is reaching his competence limit. I don't think he is ready to take Slack, both as product and as company, forward from this point on. Eg product not evolving despite hiring an army and him investing on WeWork are really bad points on his record. With Teams... Time will tell. They must be really careful with how they evolve the product at this point, eg chat features that could turn it into a new lame HipChat, and avoid overcomplicating it.

I don't get people. If Microsoft doesn't introduce a similar service, people would say they are falling behind and outdated. When they do introduce something similar they should be hated. I tried Slack couldn't get a handle of it. It seems for developer-friendly with all those shortcuts etc. For the most part, it was fine, but takes a lot of effort to integrate with other tools. Microsoft Teams work out of the box. There are a few weird things about it similar to Slack but it's rare in my experience.

Teams is great, much better than Slack. There are more tools to be used with Teams. File storage, Microsoft Projects, Video Calling, Voice Calling. To be fair I haven't used slack since January but I never really liked it even when I started using it two years ago.

There is one big difference between Teams and Slack. Slack is made for small teams. Teams is made for companies with thousands of people. When your company use Teams, they can mandate you to be a part of few (or many) noisy group, in which you can't leave. And oh, the company may also mandate, if you want to made a reply in a channel, on whether you can reply outside the office vicinity. That's right, you can use your own mobile phone, but it may be geofenced. Teams is made for it to be able to handle the whole company top down. Have a single IT department to handle overseas all the Teams usage in the company. Make policies that applies to everyone, without the possible chaos of everyone managing their own group, possibly increasing support cost. Slack is made for small teams. If you have a different teams, create your own. It is made to also allow multiple Slack groups on a single client, all with different owners/admins. This way, the teams manages themselves, which is very different principle when compared to Teams.

Sorry to be that guy.....but in my opinion, Teams is JUST BETTER than Slack. Actual integrated video chat, far more integration with Office365, and a smoother....less cluttered UI. Teams is just the superior enterprise option.

kudos to M$, but I just don't see them actually forcing out their competition in these spaces. Whatever the bean counters think, devs generally AREN'T in favor of being stuck within the walls of some vendor-specific ecosystem. I'm not saying it doesn't happen of course, but you will always have pressure from the bottom up to diversify, and that pressure is probably greatest whenever your tech talent has more power than "business" side of things.

I find Microsoft Teams to be more of a Zoom than a Slack competitor. It's screen sharing feature is nifty and most likely, you or your company is already paying for an office subscription. Zoom's advantage is its better tech than others such as Webex (where it came from) or GoToMeeting. But when the rest is good enough and you already suscribe to Microsoft, why use Zoom?
