Slack is a collaboration tool that enhances work group communications. It provides a platform for individual groups to chat live online and keep conversations organized and accessible from anywhere, anytime. Lehigh Enterprise Slack is the enterprise version of Slack. It allows teams within Lehigh University to have separate, but connected, workspaces across the university.
