I think it depends on the type of conversation you want to have. Using project and team conversations takes a little bit of practice I think because we’re less used to the format (in opposition to instant messaging we also use in our private life). But very often I find project conversations (with follow-up in comments) more organised and efficient than a lengthy, disorganized conversation in Slack; not to mention it is a lot easier to find weeks later if you need to review it.
We just launched a new Project Status last week (you can check out the announcement here). This new format allows you among other things to illustrate your project update with milestones, tasks and approvals, so your teammate can read your update and dive into more details right from the update. I hope we can apply a similar recipe to project and team conversation in the future to help make your conversations more compelling and efficient. I don’t believe this is on the cards for the near future, but I’ll be sure to keep you posted in the Forum when I know more!
