Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One notable feature is the "improvement training," which allows you to define groups, facilitate information sharing, enable participant rating, and establish rankings. This enables you to identify which participants are actively engaged and sharing information and which ones are less active."

More SAP Jam Pros →

"The huddle feature is valuable to me.""You can create channels between teams internally and externally, which is great. There is a lot of security with Slack internal, which is what I value.""Slack makes it easy for employees to contact each other and exchange documents or information.""The product is easy to use.""When we work with a platform like Slack, we can have one source without merging different document versions.""One thing I like about Slack is the ability to change the color of Slack. It depends on my mood. When I'm having a bright day, I just change the background color of my Slack, which is nice.""The most valuable features are video conferencing and sharing content during meetings.""The most valuable feature is that we can easily integrate different workloads and the alerts are reliable. Also because it allows us to use it as a monitoring tool sometimes."

Cons
"I'm hopeful for more integrations with SAP JAM in the future."

More SAP Jam Cons →

"The product crashes when I use it on the desktop.""The solution needs to improve its scalability.""I think Slack could add additional features without making the solution slower or more difficult to use.""Notifications are not as good as they could be (especially for mobile).""For me, the only thing I can say is that every time somebody sent me an attachment, the attachment was listed somewhere, and then I had to open the conversation and go to the individual to open it. So there is no handy repository or an easy way to quickly look at attachments. For me, that was a bit difficult.""The UI could be a little bit better.""The mobile app needs improvement. It consistently misses notifications.""There could be a read function so that when you send a message, instead of the other person having to add a reaction, you know that the message went through."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "You need to pay for additional languages. It is somewhat expensive and the payment frequency can be annual or monthly, depending on the choice. There are no extra costs beyond the standard license and implementation fees."
  • More SAP Jam Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We use the free version that does not have a license."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "It is less expensive than one of its competitors."
  • "It is an expensive tool. We pay 15 to 20 USD monthly per user."
  • "Slack is definitely worth the money."
  • "The pricing can range up to about twenty bucks a user. You can spend a lot of money, especially if you're talking about thousands of users. Generally speaking, Slack is less expensive than Teams. Slack doesn't include all the bells and whistles that Teams does. So you can go from a $6 license in Microsoft 365 to a $50 license per user per month, and there's a lot more you can do in the $50 license."
  • "I would rate the tool's pricing a four out of ten."
  • "The solution is cheap in my country."
