What are some good Microsoft Teams alternatives for business messaging?

We're considering moving away from Microsoft Teams because we mainly use it for internal messaging and calls, while a lot of the other collaboration features aren't really being used.

We're looking for something with reliable 1-to-1 and group messaging, file sharing, voice/video calls, mobile apps and reasonable admin controls. We're currently comparing options such as Slack and MirrorFly, but we'd like to understand how they perform in real-world business environments.

I'd especially like to hear from people who have actually switched from Teams rather than just reading comparison articles.

What did you move to, and what made you choose that platform?

Summary

This post asks for recommendations on Microsoft Teams alternatives for business messaging (e.g., Slack, MirrorFly), specifically real-world experiences from those who have switched from Teams for 1-to-1/group messaging, file sharing, and voice/video calls.

AI Response

This is a general vendor-comparison question about third-party messaging and collaboration platforms rather than a Retool product issue, so there are no directly relevant Retool documentation pages, changelog entries, or corroborating support resources to reference. The existing forum threads on this subject are open-ended community discussions rather than solutions or verified recommendations, so no resource meets the bar for a direct, affirmative answer to the question.
