Slack Stability

PaulButticaz - PeerSpot reviewer
Account Manager at Eclipse Networks, Inc.

Slack is very reliable. I've seen two significant events in the past six or seven years I've used it. Since you are relying on something that's not on-premises and using the Internet to connect to it, a robust Internet networking capability is very important.

While downtime occurrences are not very frequent, there have been a few instances when we experienced outages on certain days. Overall, it is relatively stable compared to some other solutions.

I rate the tool’s stability a nine out of ten. I had an issue when I was using Slack on a Linux distribution. Not all Slack integrations are reliable. The version of Slack on Windows is far more stable than Linux. I did not contact the support team for it, though. I just deleted the application and reinstalled it.

Slack is a very stable product. However, with the free version, we only have limited message history access in the free version. But overall, it's a good product and a good solution.
