Organise your work
Channels bring order and clarity to work – you can create them for every project, topic or team. When there’s a channel for everything, you can focus on the conversations and work that matters most to you.

Create alignment
Channels provide you and your team with a shared view into the work being done. With access to the same information, everyone in the channel can work in sync, and new members have full context when they join. And whenever you want to talk, simply use Slack huddles to start a live voice conversation.

Be more productive
As you work in channels, your conversations and files become a searchable archive that gets more useful with time. Find answers, get context and make better decisions without having to chase down people or information.
Public channels
These channels are open for anyone at your company to join or find in search. Increase transparency while allowing everyone to benefit from the context of your conversations.
Private channels
For sensitive or confidential conversations, you can use private channels. Only those who are invited can view the channel or find its contents in search.
Slack Connect
Work with multiple organisations in a channel. Speed up communication with clients, vendors, agencies and more.
