Collaboration with external people is clearly digitized and cloud-based in the work environment. In addition, there is frequent collaboration and communication with people outside the company itself, such as partners, suppliers and customers. Accordingly, the shared channel feature facilitates seamless collaboration across team and organizational boundaries to work efficiently and effectively. Thus, multiple organizations have the ability to collaborate through the individual shared channels in a collective space. Stakeholders have the option to have conversations, schedule meetings, share and collaborate on data without changing tenants.
