This is now the key consideration for community managers considering using, or staying with, Slack. The key question… how important is your community content older than 90 days? So if you start on the free plan, but then needed to pay $17,400 in order to get access to your data to migrate elsewhere to avoid paying the $17,400… you’re in a chicken and egg problem. If you have a community of just 200 that would mean going from free to $17,400 per year even with the annual discount.Īnd the only way to get your data out of Slack is to be on a paid plan. The real problem for anyone running a community on Slack is that now you have to pay to access messages older than 3 months. If you do need to pay for Slack, monthly Pro subscriptions have increased from $8 USD to $8.75 USD per user per month, a rise of almost 10%. And the price increase only affects users on their Pro subscription.įurthermore, the free plan now includes some new features, like clips.įinally, if you have a very chatty team who don’t need access to messages older than 3 months then you’re now less likely to need to pay for Slack. So, what are the implications if you’re running a community on Slack? The good newsĪs Slack point out, this is the first price increase they’ve made since they launched in 2014. Slack recently announced a price increase and changes to its free plan that came into effect on 1 September 2022.
