Slack and Microsoft Teams are both leading chat collaboration platforms offering a comprehensive list of features for businesses and organizations to help the team to continue to connect and collaborate during this difficult time. The choice between the two ultimately comes down to what you're looking for in a collaborative app.

Slack vs Teams: Which one to choose?

There are several reasons why Teams is chosen over Slack. One of the reasons includes that Microsoft Teams comes bundled with Office 365 applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, OneDrive, SharePoint, Outlook, and more which are essential for your everyday business whereas Slack comes as a standalone product.

Microsoft Teams is the best choice if your company is already using Office 365 or has a dedicated team that needs more advanced features to collaborate with the team easily and effectively.

If you have decided to move your business from Slack to Teams, the first thing that bothers you is the data that you want to move.
