Withmore than 10 million daily active users,Slack已成为许多(许多)公司的首选通信工具。

The easy-to-use, well-designed app makes it easy for teams to communicate regardless of if they work in-office or remotely.

But, over the years, Slack has become much more than just a chat tool. With more than 1,500 third-party apps in their ecosystem, Slack has become a hub where teams can connect all of the software that they use in one place.

In fact, over 90% of the marketers we surveyed have connected at least two apps to their Slack workspace.


In this post, we’re taking a look at the top Slack integrations that marketers can’t live without, including:

  1. beplay体育appios
  2. Zapier
  3. Stripe
  4. Giphy
  5. Typeform
  6. 盒子
  7. Pokerbot
  8. Github
  9. Buzzsumo
  10. CloudApp
  11. Google Drive
  12. Google Calendar
  13. Gmail
  14. Google Hangouts
  15. Donut
  16. 飞涨
  17. Marker
  18. 体式
  19. Trello
  20. 吉拉
  21. Bonusly
  22. Twitter
  23. Dropbox
  24. Standuply

1. Databox

Okay, we might be a little biased here. You can get all of your metrics delivered right into your Company’s Slack channelusing our Slack integration.

尼克·蒙塔古(Nick Montagu)Alphawhalesays this is his top Slack integration.

“It alerts us to issues and keeps the team focused on outcomes,” says Montagu.

Editor’s Note: If your company uses Stripe as your payment gateway, you cantrack MRR growth and monitor your churn rate using this dashboard。You can also receive alerts directly in Slack.

2. Zapier

“I couldn’t live without the integrations between Slack and Zapier,” says Nick Moore of动物。“I couldn’t count the number of ways Zapier is feeding into Slack. Right now, for instance, I log onto slack Monday morning and not only check notifications from my colleagues, but also notifications from a Slack/Zapier bot updating me on all the goings-on of my favorite communities and influencers.”

Jeremy Cross of团队建设西雅图says, “The Slack integration that is most critical to our business success is Zapier, which is an online tool for automating tasks. For example, when a lead signs up on our website we use Zapier to bring that contact information into Slack so that our sales team can follow up. We also use Zapier to set recurring reminders in Slack that serve as triggers for actions like reviewing analytics and improving content.”

Stephane Gringer ofChameleon Collective补充说:“当我的通信生活在Slack中时,我的文件和任务却没有。将事物从松弛到Evernote或Todoist的出口最好是用ZAPS完成。我可以播放一条消息,这变成了笔记。当业务信号泡泡时,我还使用Zapier提醒我。新的潜在客户,销售,分配给我的Asana任务等。有时我需要关闭我的电子邮件客户端,以专注于Slack中的协作工作。如果我有紧急情况需要注意,我很快就为适合我条件的电子邮件设置了一个松弛的警报,以便我倾向于解决这个问题。我还将松弛消息发送到Asana中,因此在对话中,我可以创建行动项目以委派或照顾之后。”

例如,尼克·罗伯茨(Nick Roberts)全球应用程序测试说:“我们用它来跟踪新的交易,转换,潜在客户,活动与会者 - 一切!它使我们能够从业务的几乎所有角落都使每个人都了解所有人的业务。这使Zapier可以跟踪我们的工作不可或缺。”

3. Stripe

“The Stripe integration is the most crucial and helpful for our business,” says David Denning ofJumpstart Go。“我们通过我们的网站为保险代理商出售多种产品和服务,而条纹集成使我们的整个团队都可以看到我们有了新客户,他们购买的东西,收取了多少费用,付款失败等等。因此,我们可以立即进行下一个动作步骤。对我们的业务绝对至关重要!”

Tom Zsomborgi ofKinstaadds, “Working for a SaaS business is exciting especially when your marketing and sales campaigns are working and driving results. We are all day long on Slack and adding the Stripe integration just makes perfect sense. You can get immediate notification of the new signups or upgrades and have a real sense of business growth. This can be extremely motivating, especially when it is providing 100% live feedback that you and your team are on the right track.”

4. Giphy

“Giphy,” says Jake Fisher ofBridges Strategies & Digital Marketing。“Because sometimes you need a GIF to fully express your true sentiment.”

Jered Martin ofOnePitchsays, “It is one of the most frequently used apps that we all use on a daily basis. There’s something about using a GIF that text nor an emoji can capture.”

“Sometimes during the working day, you need something to lighten the mood,” adds Lee Savery ofRicemedia。“Words and emojis don’t convey a reaction enough which is why we can’t live without Giphy. A shake of the head, a dance, or just one with a cute cat in, we can’t be without them.”

Erin Barr ofKiwi Creativepoints out, “Why say something with words if you can say it with a GIF?! At Kiwi Creative, we could not live without our Giphy Slack integration. Working in marketing can be stressful, so our GIFs fill our office with humor and happiness.

无论我们是在谈论特定项目还是一般帖子,找到适合心情的理想GIF的刺激性。只是当心!通过建立Giphy集成的方式,您必须循环浏览选项,而无需返回。因此,不要跳过自己喜欢的人,否则您可能会永远丢失它!”

5. Typeform

“The Typeform integration is extremely important for us,” says Dorian Reeves ofSH1FT。“Since we send a lot of surveys to clients and people from our Facebook groups, it allows us to have all the answers directly sent to us in our primary means of communication (Slack) without having to go on the Typeform website. This saves us a lot of time.”

乔什·克拉科尔(Josh Krakauer)Sculpt补充说:“必不可少的集成是我们日常工作流程的一部分,尤其是新业务的一部分。

以typeform <> Slack为例。

When a prospective client fills out our discovery survey through Typeform, a Google Doc is auto-generated with their answers and sent in our #newbiz channel as a Slackbot message. The text asks our team to comment/reply to the inquiry-based on our definition of fitment.

As a result, our whole team gets full visibility when a lead reaches the qualification stage. They have a chance to voice their opinion and offer feedback at a critical stage in the sales process.”

6. Box

“One Slack integration that I can’t live without is Box,” adds Lisamarie Monaco ofInsuranceForBurial.com。“盒子可以帮助我保持井井有条,并找到文件,卡和任何已发布的文件。您的Slack频道中的所有Slack用户也可以共享这一点。”

7. PokerBot

Brian Ng ofAlltimePower说:“我们在1周的敏捷冲刺中工作,Pokerbot允许我们有效举办计划或临时扑克会议。”

8. Github

“绝对是Github,” Cierra Flythe说BoardActive。“跟上当前的产品项目,可以使营销缩小更多颗粒状的截止日期,并需要前进。”

9. Buzzsumo

“I can set alerts to Slack where I’m notified every time a backlink goes live to any page on my website,” says Matt Zajechowski of数字第三海岸。“This is incredibly useful for tracking the results of our outreach and link building efforts for both our company and our clients.”

10. CloudApp

“With CloudApp, you capture or create content (screenshot, screen recording, GIF) and then have an instantly shareable link that unfurls nicely in Slack,” says Joe Martin ofCloudApp。“I used it so much when I was working at Adobe that I decided to join the company.”

11. Google Drive

“毫无疑问,我无法没有的一个松弛整合是Google Drive,因为我高度依赖Google Drive来获取数据,” Jitendra Vaswani说博客gersideas.com。“我可以直接回复从Slack内部的评论通知。

Sumitra senapatyWOW Club说:“虽然它可能是最常见的集成之一,但也是最有用的。老实说,有时会很容易错过Google警报,甚至在您无法立即采取行动时忘记了它。有了Slack Notification,以及轻松访问Google Drive,可以确保您及时完成工作或对编辑或评论做出反应。”

“Slack’s Google Drive integration is tremendously helpful,” says John Donnachie ofClydeBank Media。“I know it is one of the less flashy integrations but it is an absolute workhorse. We do a lot of work in Google Docs and Sheets and the stream of Slack messages that keep me informed of changes. It is an easy way for me to keep track of multiple projects without having to message members of my team to check-in.”

摩根·泰勒(Morgan Taylor)LetMeBank补充说:“对于内容计划,没有什么比将Google驱动器集成到您的Slack对话中了。这样,您就不会问作家:“嘿,您是否在Slack Integrations上写了这篇文章?”相反,您是在说:“嘿,您是否检查了此[insert doc link]在列表之外吗?''''''

例如,菲尔·格雷戈里(Phil Gregory)Peak District SEO说:“如果有人需要访问共享文件,我可以立即授予它,从而使他们有效地继续工作。我已经设定了电子邮件,因此如果没有这种集成,人们将等待我长期访问他们。”

12. Google Calendar

“没有Google日历集成,我将无法生活。”一个火。“Through Slack, Google Calendar sends me a reminder of all my daily events. Plus, it reminds me right before I need to head into a meeting!”

13. Gmail

“The Slack integration I couldn’t live without is undoubtedly the integration with Gmail,” says Vimal Bharadwaj ofAutomate.io。在我们公司,Slack已更换电子邮件以进行所有内部通信。但是对于任何外部交流,我们都会使用Gmail。

I work in the marketing team at our company. As a result, a good part of my job involves talking to editors, writers, marketers, etc. from other companies. Rather than continuously checking my email for new messages from them, I’ve simply connected Gmail to Slack using our tool (we often eat our own dog food). With that setup, I get notified of each new email with the email subject, preview, and sender. That information is enough for me to decide if an email is important or not. I don’t have to compulsively check my email every 10 minutes, and that gives me a lot of peace of mind.”

14. Google Hangouts

Alejandro Rioja说:“没有Google Hangouts,我无能为力。这使得在单个频道中快速加入视频会议变得更加容易。您只需运行它,并向频道中的每个人都会显示一条消息。”

15.甜甜圈

“A very popular Slack integration for our team is Donut, which randomly matches team members for 1-on-1 video calls,” says Tasia Duske ofMuseum Hack。“我们将这些联系称为罗杰斯先生的电话,因为目标是了解您的虚拟邻居。唯一的规则或指南是,在您的电话期间,您不允许谈论工作或项目。取而代之的是,这些电话使员工有机会在更个人的水平上建立联系,例如过度共同利益和爱好。我们将这些罗杰斯先生的呼吁用作内部虚拟团队建设活动,并向其他远程团队推荐它们。”

16. Zoom

“Zoom is an excellent tool and Slack application that we love to use for both in-house meetings and connecting with clients around the state,” says Ken Christensen ofChristensen Recycling。“由于我们总是根据订单规模和项目创建自定义作业和报价,因此与客户,有时甚至是团队成员进行面对面很重要。我们使用了大量的松弛应用程序,但这是我们的最爱之一。”

Alexandra Zamolo of养蜂人adds, “Being able to integrate Zoom with Slack brings communication and engagement to a whole new level! If I’m communicating via Slack and decide it’s more efficient to jump on a call, Slack will connect me to Zoom with just one click. Anything that saves me time throughout my day is a virtual lifesaver!”

17. Marker

”一个松弛的应用程序,我发现真正有用的是标记,” says Oksana Chyketa ofAlbacross。“It is a Chrome extension that comes in handy when I need to share screenshots with the team on Slack(我做很多事情)。It also allows me to annotate the screenshots with arrows, text, and emojis.

What’s more, is that the Marker application adds the URL of the page where the screenshot was taken and sends it along with the picture. This feature is super useful as well since it makes the app all-in-one and eliminates the necessity to share a link as well.”

18.体式

“Working remotely requires close coordination with the team else productivity is adversely affected,” says Farasat Khan ofIsItWP。“By integrating Asana with Slack, I get instant notifications when changes to Asana tasks are made. This allows me to take actionable measures in time. On top of all that, I can easily create tasks via Slack for Asana by simply typing “/Asana.” All of these factors help me stay on a single platform.”

朱利·杜兰特(Juli Durante)Impulse Creativesays, “As an agency, we’re always working in multiple projects and Slack channels with progress buzzing and multiple threads rolling out. With the Asana integration, I can easily take a Slack message and send it right into our project management system. I had previously used a different chat solution that did not integrate with project management and found myself constantly flipping back and forth or worse, forgetting about commitments. Slack + Asana keeps us all on the same page. If you have a different project management system, it’s definitely worthwhile to check and see if integration is available – such a lifesaver!”

亚历山大·波特本地搜索它adds, “Slack and Asana go together like peanut butter and jelly. If there’s a better combination of software I haven’t seen it.

作为代理机构的副本主管,我与一个团队合作,一支人数范围为2到10人,因此沟通是关键。

We use Slack daily, and track projects across Asana, and while both tools are ideal for those tasks, they do create the potential for miscommunication and misunderstandings.

Through the Slack/Asana integration you can receive Asana notifications in Slack, making sure changes to projects are seen and understood on the fly.

In the same way, you can turn Slack messages into Asana tasks, allowing for a fluid movement of direction and action.

At the end of the day, the creative side of any project is only half the battle. It is the idea.

Without execution, this idea flounders like fish caught in a net.

体式’s Slack integration provides this clear avenue of communication that reduces the friction of multiple tools, and frees up my creative team to do what they do best.”

编者注:与此保持在特定任务上的表现体式公司Overview Dashboard.

19. Trello

“My favorite Slack integration is Trello by far,” says Adam Stinson ofKidd。“我们将Slack用于内部通信和Trello进行项目管理,因此能够无缝连接并在Slack上显示卡片是一个巨大的帮助。”

Andrea Loubier ofMailbirdsays, “If you use a project management app like Trello, then integrating it with Slack will save you so many clicks each day. And you know what that means? Fewer clicks = more time in your day!”

Alistair Dodds of圆圈不断增加adds, “It helps ensure smooth communication between all stakeholders in a given Slack Channel. The notifications on task updates are an essential means of letting team members know when a task is ready to be moved to the next step. And tracking of past conversations to Trello cards helps ensure a smooth passage of process steps that can be checked and analyze at any given time.”

例如,Elisa Doucette制作您的内容says, “Since we manage all our editorial calendars and our client editorial calendars using Trello, I’m a daily user of the Trello Alerts app. Using this integration, you can choose various types of Trello activities, and have them feed directly into a specific channel on Slack.

我每天和每天晚上都会审查此频道,以确保我们没有错过可能严重影响发布时间表的通知或更改。

在忙碌的日子里,这可能是一项艰巨的任务,但是到达新消息的结束并知道您已经100%赶上了。”

尼克·霍林格(Nick Hollinger)Visitor Queueadds, “As a nontechnical founder with a remote team, I love the GitLab and Trello Slack integrations. They help me keep up-to-date on what the development team’s working on and their progress!”

20. Jira

In addition to Trello, another Atlassian owned product, Jira, made this list of top integrations.

“We use Jira for project management,” says Jacqueline Lynch ofGuidebook。“这种整合对于确保我掌握队友的活动非常有帮助。它使得接收更新流体,并消除了经常检查我的Jira板的中断。”

Stephen Jeske ofMarketMuse补充说:“如果我必须在47个松弛集成中挑选一个(我使用),那将是JIRA集成。Jira在公司范围内被使用,这使我们的营销团队很容易练习敏捷的营销。我们将这种集成与特定的营销活动渠道相连,从而可以轻松地在Slack内部的情况保持标签。这是便利因素。我一直在吉拉(Jira),尽管如此,我发现这种集成非常有帮助。”

21. Bonusly

“Of all the integrations, none brings more to our team than the Bonusly integration,” says Alex Dunn ofBig Sea。“我们有一种非常敬业的开放代理文化。整天很多时候,我们都认识到我们的工作做得好,生日,甚至只是在办公室周围提供帮助。集成本身使我们的团队能够公开分享我们的赞赏并每天互相认识。”

22. Twitter

“Let’s all face it, whether we’re using Twitter for personal use or for business, it’s definitely nice to keep it handy,” says Angela Ash ofFlow SEO。“能够轻松单击和发推文,而无需打开另一个应用程序并签名真正简化了该过程。”

23. Dropbox

“ Dropbox是我们最常使用的松弛整合,” Jamie-Lee Kay说The Other Straw。“It allows us to easily import content and effectively manage our files with our team.”

Obaid Khan ofPlanet Content补充说:“我相信集中式和有条理的数据存储是提高效率的关键之一。将我所有文件(包括大量的后效应源文件,PSD和Illustrator文件)放在一个地方,我可以访问它们而无需浪费任何时间,与我的团队在Slack上讨论它们,并保留对它们的永久基于云的记录。透明

24.站立

“As far as keeping track of our content pipeline we do a great job, but, Standuply allows us to do a daily check-in with one another, so we can check the progress of tasks being done without necessarily micromanaging each other,” says Megan Mosley of推荐岩石。“还有,我们可以分享彼此阻滞剂智慧hout having to clog up our task board with too many unnecessary comments or constant Slack pings. Which allows us to all stay focused better. Not all our teams at Referral Rock use it daily, but it’s great for our marketing department.”

From connecting new form submissions and hosting video calls to syncing project management tasks and emails, Slack has become the hub that connects all of the third-party apps that many businesses use today.
