LumApps + Slack for employee communication

Slack is a leading and well-known chat tool that may already feature in your roster of work applications. If it’s part of your employees’ daily work, integrating Slack can boost the adoption of your communication platform.

Furthermore, Slack integration creates new use cases inside the Employee Communication Platform, to let employees share information in real time and improve social connection.

Collect instant feedback

Create a Slack Chat widget to be displayed anywhere inside LumApps, to give employees a channel for live conversations. This is a great option for a these specific use cases:

Enrich virtual events with Q&A
Display a Slack channel during a live stream such as a Virtual Town Hall or All-Hands meeting, so that employees can chat, react and ask questions live during the event.

Enable employee support
Display a Slack channel inside a team’s page, to better connect employees who are looking for information. By enabling this inside an HR Portal or IT portal for instance, employees can reach the referent team more easily if they can’t find what they need and receive a quick answer.

LumApps + Slack for team and project collaboration

What’s more, LumApps integrates Slack to enhance team collaboration inside LumApps communities, making it easier to work on projects with less tool confusion.

You can associate a LumApps community with a Slack channel, reinforcing two complementary usages for team collaboration:

• Data Repository: LumApps community acts as a data repository for reference information (docs, calendar, official updates)
• Real-time discussions: Associated Slack channel enables real-time discussions

This associated Slack channel can be displayed directly in LumApps communities as a chat window overlay.
