Cloud Wars Live with Bob Evans
Why Slack’s Whiny Lawsuit vs. Microsoft Will Backfire
The Big Themes:
· The New York Times ad begins, “Dear Microsoft, big news and congratulations on today’s announcements. We’re genuinely excited to have some competition.”
· The ad reeks of arrogance. And Slack is saying to the European Union, “it’s just not fair the way Microsoft is treating us.”
· It’s time for Slack to be part of a different enterprise company, and maybe it’s Oracle, Salesforce – or maybe Microsoft will have pity on them and gobble them up.
· The cloud space is only going to get more interesting over the next 12 months, as we rush to reinvent these industries and businesses and reimagine them.
· Slack and Microsoft Teams are not anywhere near the same. Sean says, “when I get a link from a company that I’m working with, I grimace. It’s an absolutely terrible product.”
The Big Quote:
“The sad reality is Slack is worth more inside somebody else's enterprise today than it is alone.”
