📝 Our Take on Slack Pricing
Slack’s biggest weakness is also its moat: everyone uses it. The 90-day message history limit on free tier is genuinely painful — critical context vanishes. But the 2,000+ integration ecosystem is unmatched. Huddles have become surprisingly good for quick audio conversations, replacing many scheduled meetings.
The free tier is viable for tiny teams (under 5) who back up important decisions elsewhere. Pro at $8.75/user/month is the sweet spot for most teams — unlimited history alone justifies the cost. For budget-conscious teams, Discord offers 90% of features for free.
