What is Slack?

Slack is the operating system for work. By bringing together people, processes, data, agents and AI into one conversational interface, Slack transforms how organisations accomplish their goals.

Working in Slack

Slack keeps teams aligned and operating smoothly. 

Centralised

By centralising your projects, information and data in Slack, everyone can find what they need to collaborate in a secure environment. Work in Slack happens in channels, dedicated spaces that bring together the right internal and external people. When everyone has access to the same shared and searchable information, along with native productivity tools, work gets done more quickly.

Comprehensive

With all of the information you need in Slack, your team has the context they need to make data-driven decisions. Choose from more than 2,600 enterprise-ready apps in the Slack Marketplace to integrate third-party services, or use Slack APIs to connect your own internal tools and customise Slack for your business.

Integrated

With your people and apps in Slack, bring in your data to make Slack the best place to get work done. With Salesforce Customer 360 data woven into Slack through Salesforce Channels, Sales Elevate and Agentforce, Slack AI has all the information available to produce highly relevant results. People and agents can operate with the full picture from anywhere, whether that’s at their desks or on the go.
