In today’s world information spreads so quickly that it changed the way companies compete. We, at the Standuply team, believe that for an online company the most crucial thing is the product’s quality. And therefore, one of the most important persons in a company is the Product Manager. Being fans of Slack, we decided to investigate

what can Slack offer to Product Managers?

It turns out that managers can satisfy almost all their needs using Slack and its apps. Some of the apps are still raw, others are just plain integrations with 3rd party services. But there are already a lot of well made, useful products designed purely for Slack, for example Growbot, and we too are doing our best with Standuply to be among the best as well.

Here is our choice of the Top-10 👑 Slack apps that cover most areas of a Product Manager at work.

Polly — for team surveys.

Standuply — for daily stand-ups.

Meekan — for scheduling meetings.

To-do bot — for to-do lists creation.

Trello — for team task management.

Pipedrive — for CRM.

Revealbot — for online marketing.

Lucidchart — for mind-maps.

Zendesk — for customer support.

Intercom — for a live chat.

We have categorized all the apps and provided a brief description for each of them focusing on the value an app brings to an end user. The list includes bots and apps for:

— agile development, meetings, and communications;

— task management and team management;

— sales, marketing, and customer communications;

— design and content management.
