Ratings and reviews

WHAT I LIKE: The ability to have an overarching structure with subchannels and the ability for private channels The ability to do video and audio chat (although I have not tested) Ability to mute channels or entire organization during set times. The ability to quickly sort messages & channels by unread messages. WHAT I DON'T LIKE: CLUNKY ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS! especially for removing members from channels. I HAVE FOUND THE DIRECT MESSAGES SECTION IS NOT WELL ORGANIZED

Great for communicating and having separate channels and everything. The thing I absolutely hate about the app is if I'm typing a long message and I stop to think about what I'm typing to make sure I'm being proffessional and to the point and the screen turns of for even a second my entire message gets deleted when I turn my screen back on. It is the most annoying thing. You really need to fix this, please. I'm going to pitch switching to another similar app because of it.

This app is unreliable garbage. Sometimes it won't load messages, other times it won't send messages, other times it'll send messages but not show that they were sent, and sometimes it'll send messages multiple times. Impossible to know which function of the app will work at any given time. For a service relied upon by companies for employee communication, this is an embarrassing attempt.
