Threads vs. Slack
So, how is Threads a full Slack replacement?
We've built an all-in-one communication platform designed for makers. With the help of our growing community, we've been able to fully and repeatedly replace tools like Slack for companies looking to get more done.
With Threads, avoid constant interruptions, the pain of keeping up / catching up, and encourage motion over progress as your company scales.
Here are the top 3 pain points we hear about Slack and how Threads addresses them:
"It's hard to keep up with discussions on Slack"
- The block format that makes up a thread keeps discussions organized by enabling people to respond directly to a specific block or to the thread itself.
- The inbox is home to all of your notifications on Threads, so it's easy to see the latest in any thread that you're a part of.
"Messages gets lost in discussions on Slack"
"There's so much information all at once that it's distracting and chaotic"
Threads is designed to keep information structured and organized.
