Welcome to Slack
Key Features
💬 Organized conversations
In Slack, work happens in channels. You can create channels based on teams, projects, or even office locations. Members of a workspace or org can join and leave channels as needed.
🔎 Searchable history
When messages and files are shared in public channels, information flows transparently throughout Slack. Search is how you can narrow down and find what you need. Learn how to search for messages and files.
*Currently, in our free plan, we have a strict limit of 10,000 total messages & files. If you have something very important to keep, it would be best if you also saved it to Drive or your computer as well as uploading into Slack.
