It’s hard to ignore the fact that Salesforce is acquiring a popular enterprise chat tool in a time in which reliance on collaboration tools is extraordinarily high. This deal makes Salesforce a stronger competitor against Microsoft, and has the potential to shape the future of collaboration. Computerworld senior writer Matthew Finnegan joins Juliet to discuss the details of the acquisition, how the deal benefits Salesforce and Slack and how it may affect smaller collaboration and chat startups.\n
