Team messaging apps such as Slack, Google Chat, and Microsoft Teams are essential to modern workplaces. Particularly when many employees are working in a remote environment, team chat apps enable instant communication, organized conversations, and file storage. With emojis, gifs, and fun plugins, messaging apps can even create and reinforce a positive work culture.
