As companies get bigger and bigger, the sheer amount of information that ends up in it will grow faster and faster
That means that the right information will generally be more difficult to access, and if Slack is going to stick to its roots as a simple
The company says search is now 70 percent faster on the back end.Users in Slack will now be able to filter search results by channels and
also the kinds of results they are looking for, like files
Slack threads, for example, were in development for more than a year before the company finally rolled out the long-awaited feature
(Whether that feature successfully changed things for the better is still not known.)Slack now has around 8 million daily active users, with
3 million paid users, and is still clearly pretty popular with smaller companies that are looking for something simpler than the more robust
But there are startups trying to pick away at other parts of the employee communications channels, like Slite, which aims to be a simpler
notes tool in the same vein as Slack but for different parts of the employee experience
