Slack, a collaborative communication startup, is set to launch a brand new way to be able to download third-party apps. This move will surely help bring the company out of its ‘charming new entry’ shell and focus on its development into ‘potential powerhouse’ status. The inclusion of third-party apps provides the company with the ability to publicize and highlight top use cases for Slack within tools that are at the top of the service.
It is not difficult to picture what sits at the top of Slack. The service is already considered a go-to in Silicon Valley and earlier in the year, it’s been reported that 750,000 employees are already making use of it on a daily basis. Given that numerous companies are already using Slack, it can be easy to see why it might open itself to more tools that various other companies might need.
