Anyone using Slack or Teams or any team chat app for client work? How is the experience so far?
Thread
Slack hasn’t let me down so far. There’s a bit of discipline required to not be always available if that’s not your thing, and to organise your channels (we use ‘client-xyz, and ‘studio-abc’) to keep things separated nicely.
Ah, I see. Simply invite them to your channel, and they'll accept it. I haven't used it for client work yet, so curious if there are any clients who don't utilize Slack. So you just use any method of communication they choose, right?
I have clients who didn’t use Slack before engaging us. But it’s just part of onboarding now. I choose to avoid some client communication tools (eg WhatsApp as I hate the organisation, it’s a terrible tool to stay organised and integrations are crap).
Email. Phone. Slack. GoogleMeet. Occasionally Zoom (but it’s shit too) and very rarely Teams (the worst platform on Earth). Lots of options really to communicate but best to have a core toolset.
