Yay for more fragementation and bloatware in the Enterprise
Oh, fantastic. Yet another piece of crap process slowing down my already slow corporate laptop. It can barely function as it is with all the McCrappie/Windows Bloatware they've managed to cram on it.
I work for a large retailer in the UK, and Slack has really taken off (for some reason) with some of the development teams/individuals. In my eyes, it just serves as yet another distraction and place to communicate potentially sensitive company information "off the grid". How use of it got past the higher-ups in the various security departments at this place is beyond my comprehension.
Is anyone else just plain sick of the fragmentation of communication platforms these days, not only for home use but now creeping into the enterprise? Should we really just be jumping on the next shiny POC purely because it's fashionable despite having full O365 subscriptions available? Skype for Business and Outlook isn’t perfect, don’t get me wrong – but it’s at least tried, tested and true.
Rant over :P
