<\/figure><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWe do not use Slack in lieu of our calendar; we still keep a separate calendar for all dates. But we do post critical dates as reminders for the team. Also, Slack has a To Do feature that allows us to post assigned tasks to the case file.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Inasmuch as this is a cloud based application, we have access to it through our office and on our individual phones and laptops. The app. also allows us to send direct messages that are not linked to a particular file such as \u201cwanna have lunch\u201d type communications. We have also set up a general channel for non-client based communications or notifications affecting everyone on the team (e.g. we are having our Christmas party at\u2026)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Even if your office is two people, I strongly urge investigating this application. You will save countless time consuming internal emails and keep better track of case progress. It has improved our efficiency and case management 100%. The basic features is free but there is a cost for more advanced features or more memory. We use the paid version and it still is relatively inexpensive considering the value it provides. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
