Integration with third-party software: Slack has the advantage
Teams and Slack offer many integrations, but Slack wins hands down by offering more than 1,500 third-party applications to its users: particularly useful for simplifying your employees' daily work.

Teams vs Slack in a few words
Teams is a team messaging app launched by Microsoft in November 2016, modelled on Slack. The service integrates with the Microsoft Office 365 suite and Skype and offers extensions / integrations to third-party tools. It is owned by U.S. giant Microsoft.
Slack is the collaborative platform created in 2014. It facilitates teamwork through hundreds of integrations with third-party tools. It is owned by the American giant Salesforce, following its acquisition in December 2020.
Both American solutions, Slack and Teams are often the obvious choice for companies looking for a collaborative platform. In our opinion, other non-U.S. solutions, such as Talkspirit, should be explored as the above comparison shows.

The way your data is hosted has an impact on its security
The Cloud Act is a 2018 US federal law that allows the Department of Justice to order a US internet service provider (including any SaaS publisher) to access data stored on its servers, even on those located outside the US. A law to which Talkspirit, a French publisher, is obviously not subject.
Internal communication is the key to successful collaboration.
Is a collaborative messaging system sufficient to ensure the cohesion of your team and the involvement of each employee? Surely not. Internal communication has a key up-to-date role in individual engagement. This is why Talkspirit not only encourages collaborative work , but also enables you to maintain effective internal communication with ALL your employees—even those who do not have a professional email account!
User-friendliness facilitates the adoption a new tool
The watchword of a good collaborative tool? Simplicity, of course. Indeed, a platform that is easy to use is more quickly adopted by teams. At Talkspirit, we place particular importance on theuser experience (as Capterra, Appvizer, Getapp and Lecko have noted). No training is required to start using the platform. Thanks to its intuitive and ergonomic interface, Talkspirit allows all employees to be quickly operational.
