Slack’s list feature is now available to all paid customers, bringing work management capabilities natively to the collaboration app.
The lists feature, which has been in private preview since it was unveiled in September 2023, lets teams track and coordinate various projects — anything from a marketing campaign or approval processes to a simple list of priorities, said Slack.
The lists function in a similar way to specialized, best-of-breed work management apps on the market. Each list contains rows of task “items,” with columns of information on fields such as assignee, due date, statusand priority. There’s also a Kanban-style board view, where items are presented on item cards that can be moved between columns as needed — for example, from “in progress” to “done.”
