Swift and intuitive configuration

In terms of initial setup, after the quick and uneventful installation, the tool launches automatically, and you will need to input your team’s domain, or define one if it doesn’t exist already.
Subsequently, accounts can be created, and all employees with an email address from the same domain can register and confirm their address, then connect to it and begin exchanging information.

Being a multi-platform application, Slack can be used from mobile phones, tablets, iOS devices and Mac computers, as well as from the web browser, as you need only specify the account credentials to login.
The ‘Team Directory’ will display all members while, on the left-side panel, you can find available ‘Channels’ and ‘Private Groups’, or create new ones. At the same time, you can view the coworkers available for ‘Direct Messages’.
In the ‘All Files’ section, you can find the documents that have been shared by team members, on various channels, allowing you to leave comments for them. Similarly, you can upload files yourself, being able to find them in the ‘Your Files’ area.
Moreover, Slack supports integration with several popular Cloud storage services, such as Dropbox or Google Drive, enabling large file exchange to undergo without a problem.

A flexible messaging tool for teams and coworkers
