I really like these startup break downs. Personally I prefer watching you talk more than stock videos. Maybe even a whiteboard with simple figures and graphs. e.g. year, sales, users etc Keep it up awesome work slidebean!
As everyone continues to move towards work from home it will be interesting to see how the different online platforms start to segment the market with certain companies targeted specific industries like accounting or graphic design.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
Many people say that Microsoft Teams is a strong competitor to Slack, but in my personal experience Slack is way ahead of Teams in almost every aspect. Teams is slow, clunky and is intensive on memory and bandwidth. That being said, Teams has seen a 70+% increase in user base during the lockdown period. Would love to know your opinions on it
Funny enough, we migrated from slack to teams more than a year ago. And have never looked back. Teams is way ahead of slack in almost every aspect. 😅 different opinions.
A diarrhea poo on a sandwich bun is better than Slack in every single way, except for offensiveness. Slack does take the award for being more offensive. Their UI/UX is terrible, their notifications are inconsistent, their customer support is terrible, they're stuck in their ways when people point out how their UI/UX is broken, and, the final kick in the balls, their stock has almost always traded below their opening price.
Honestly, I've greatly appreciated the fact that you are sponsored by your own product. I would recommend you keep doing that, but that's your business (literally).
And now escalating to a hair under 200k!! Great growth for a great channel with brilliant content, presented in an easy to understand format. Well done!!
Did it tho? It was not meant to be super commercial anyways. It is a opensource product and quite actively participates in Google Summer of Code every year. Personally though, I feel its very cluttered and not user-friendly like Slack.

I thought this video would be about financials. Income statement, projected revenue growth, competition, followed by analysis of the stock value. This video was more an explanation of Slack’s features rather than anything resembling a valuation which is what the video title implies.
Idea noted, thanks! Maybe these videos help: ua-cam.com/video/dDqSubJTFr8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/kkeuCTfjBPg/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/J-9H_rXMlos/v-deo.html
This is accurate! slack sometimes takes up more time because there are multiple people tagging us into multiple things ad-hoc, this would result in a chaos of prioritizing, and instead of mails we get constant pings now and sometimes its hard to keep things in track and we get lost!
I tried to use it to collab with my local non-profit and was actually too complex for many to get with. Ended up using Discord, because it's mobile apps are way much easier and faster, plus have everything I needed like the pins and a robust multimedia sharing capability. A more professional Discord with native features, no command driven ones, might be perfect for small teams.
I truly enjoy your videos...very helpful insights for any CEO be it a startup or established company. I share with my team of upcoming managers and CEOs in Nigeria. Keep up the great work.
Great video. I used teams, slack and discord server professionally and to my surprise teams has the superior UX. I used slack for month and wasn't able to use all features intuitively and purposefully(project management). Felt it too playfull, lacking a clear purpose and bloated, its disruptive instead of helpful bot pop ups an example of this. I understood teams straight away, even transferred productivity strategies intuitively learned on teams back to slack to use it better. Teams also has the edge when talking with people outside of your organization cause it's used by many larger enterprises as part of their Microsoft stack. Part of this edge is that it has the better meeting software natively integrated to Outlook. Slack wins in file sharing and message search but overall I think teams will win long-term particularly if they amp up ease of file sharing while balancing the security of its SharePoint integration.
I might've missed it in the video, but has slack made a profit? Is it profitable or can it be? I know user numbers has increased, but I don't know if that means profit vs gaining market share.
Dear Caya, I am a loyal client of slidebean and really facing a big issue to pitch my idea in two minutes, could you please make a video about it. " How to pitch in two minutes" What to include and what to remove? How to deliver the idea in a simple explanation. Many Thanks, Love from Dubai
I have some acquaintance with Slack through past participation in a maker space. There are hundreds of messages per day with zero relevance to my business. Stopped looking at the messages and association with the maker space in 2015: the waste of time has negative value to my business.
Does slidebean use slack ? If so, for which teams use it and how ? The paid or the free version is enough for an organisation of your size ? Thanks Caya
Any comment on how their stock price, and mostly always has been, below their IPO price? Also, any comment on the people who say that Slack's user experience is terrible and inconsistent?
Yes, I had the problem of communication overflow in one company I worked for. They used it as WhatsApp. Most of their communication was an endless useless stream of bullshit. It was a mess and nobody professional was trying to put order. Add to the equation that they were extremely lazy arrogant and that didn't bother to check the work that I was doing and you have one huge problem.
As long as slack is charging an SSO Tax (sso.tax/) higher than a complete O365 license (which includes productivity apps) I think MS will continue to eat its market share.
As much as I hate M$ products, Teams is actually a good platform and, in some ways, better than Slack (especially in the area of video communication). My company switched from Slack to Teams because it was simply too expensive and Teams was offered for extremely cheap as part of the bundle that we had (we're already deeply invested in M$ technologies). I think Slack is going to lose a lot of edge if they don't cut prices and innovate.
MS Teams is hot pile of nothingness. Android apps never worked, Confusing UI stacks, Haphazard feature sets without consistent UI elements, EXTREMELY, and I mean, EXTREMELY heavy resource for the Desktop Version. Have no flexible open API/SDKs for admins to write their own automated tools. the list goes on. Not to mention the obligatory Office 365 (it's Microsoft 365 now I guess) integration. No thanks.
@@muhwyndham Only time will tell. Historically big bad Microsoft will enter and try to dominate until it decided it can't. Right now, I am the only Slack user within my friends, all are MS team users. Not sure maybe pricing is better and included with office 365?
@@tubarao1143 doubt what? Ms teams has grown to 75 million users (30 million in just the last month) while slack has 12 million. The numbers speak for themselves.
This video does not answer the question if Is Slack really worth $20 Billion? It just presents some facts but no analysis to answer the question! Waste!
Caya, something doesn't feel right. The product that you seem to be lauding is, for me, something to dread. Fun? Easy to use? Like a game? It sounds like a totally different user experience, especially when someone needs to maintain an entire spreadsheet of there multiple user log-ins and emails just to sign on to different workspaces. A chore instead of something to look forward to using. Sorry, but Slack is a productivity sink for this seasoned user. 😟
Don't understand all these $billions websites/platforms, all it take just a few coding monkeys. Older industries like airline, shipbuilding, mining require massive capitals, engineers, materials etc. etc., what do the old Industrialist think ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no. there, saved you 10 minutes... all useful functionality is gone... and well... at ipo time 80k paying users@10 billion valuation. is the subscription 500usd a month?
Slack? Seriously? I was "forced' to work with that anti-social pointless nonsense once. Never again!. It is a solution for a problem that does not exist. The worst, most pointless online software I have ever had the displeasure of having to interact with. It is not needed if people learn to properly communicate and think before they do.
That's only slightly above the PE ratio of the entire Nasdaq composite (~27). Pretty typical for a tech company. Microsoft and Apple are at around 30 too, for reference.

Slidebean are super sloppy with their presentations. Kind of ironic regarding what kind of product they're selling.

Good job 👍 guys, You guy's are really nailing down the company forensics series. Kudos to the work.
Thank you so much 😀
The value is marketing. There is a free, open-source alternative to slack called Riot messenger but no one knows about it..
@Larry Byrd because originizations want something that just work, and leave the job of maintenance and security to the company that built it
Congrats on the 100k @slidebean 👏🎉🙌😉
Thank you, Ari! 💙
We use MatterMost, the Slack open, self-hosted alternative to Slack. And it works perfectly.
Shit name
This was just an ad for slack. There was nothing in the form of valuation analysis. Clickbait.
100K congrats ❤u guys ✌
Yeahhhh! Thank you!
Always quality content Caya!
Thanks, James!
With Caya's video is a fun day ahead!!
Yay!
You should also do a video on Canva. Trust me Caya we will appreciate it. You guys are amazing. I reckon you won't take it in competitive sense.
Thanks, Nakul!

Please review Asana and Basecamp. They are similar to Slack.
Can you do a video on Boston Dynamics ? 👍👍
Noted! Good suggestion 😉
The question arises,does slidebean use slack? XD. Btw can you guys also make a video on box the software company?
We absolutely use Slack!
Damn did I make a mistake purchasing microsoft teams for my org
As long as slack is charging an SSO Tax (sso.tax/) higher than a complete O365 license (which includes productivity apps) I think MS will continue to eat its market share.
how come Slack isn't profitable already?
Slack is extremely sticky. Once your company is on it good luck leaving it. Maybe Slack is the Facebook of business...then 20B market cap is cheap.
As much as I hate M$ products, Teams is actually a good platform and, in some ways, better than Slack (especially in the area of video communication). My company switched from Slack to Teams because it was simply too expensive and Teams was offered for extremely cheap as part of the bundle that we had (we're already deeply invested in M$ technologies).

the hacked IRC could never
Emotes. that's the main reason
So basically, Slack is for businesses as Discord is for Gamers?
The title of the video was a question which never got answered in the video. I take it as a click bait. Not cool.
1 million users counted in USD
I saw that too but honest mistake, unless that was the joke
Microsoft teams: I'm coming for you Slack ;)
Both shit, but Slack is better than MS Teams by wide margin.
MS Teams is hot pile of nothingness. Android apps never worked, Confusing UI stacks, Haphazard feature sets without consistent UI elements, EXTREMELY, and I mean, EXTREMELY heavy resource for the Desktop Version. Have no flexible open API/SDKs for admins to write their own automated tools. the list goes on. Not to mention the obligatory Office 365 (it's Microsoft 365 now I guess) integration. No thanks.

Short sellers are rubbing their hands together
Slack is worth nothing when there are open-source alternatives that are better
MS Teams has absolutely crushed slack in 2020. Another video about that would be interesting.
Yes, by offering to all 365 users for free:) People will ultimately switch to Slack due to network effects.
@@Yomamaissoo MS Teams has the network effect. Literally all businesses are on teams

IS IT ACTUALLY HOLY
No.
$71bn zoom madness.
slack aka discord(corporate version).
No word about competitors?
Ironically, their IP name it’s WORK, what the hell???!!!
Click bait! Title has nothing to do with the content
Can a 21 year old become a CEO of a public company on the NYSE or NASDAQ???
Yes

No reputable company I know has used slack during these last months of pandemic shutdown
Not sure what real companies are using this
$1M USERS! haha! Great vid though!
Not a chance .. no ways it is "worth" $20 Billio
Isn’t Slack basically a paid social media platform branded for productivity?
No
Well, given that you are a basic human being. Yes, it is.
No
Personally. I hate Slack. It's just crappy Discord.
DISCORD
Nope.
Slack? Seriously? I was "forced' to work with that anti-social pointless nonsense once. Never again!. It is a solution for a problem that does not exist. The worst, most pointless online software I have ever had the displeasure of having to interact with.
It is not needed if people learn to properly communicate and think before they do.
it looks dead ass like a rip off discord just me
the premieres are getting annoying in my subscription feed, please stop it.
No deep insight at all
Their stock trades like 30 times their earnings which is absolutely insane and overrated.
That's only slightly above the PE ratio of the entire Nasdaq composite (~27). Pretty typical for a tech company. Microsoft and Apple are at around 30 too, for reference.
