Community managers/Administrators want to remain updated with the type of content being posted on their respective communities. They also want to ensure timely response to community members/end usersâ queries.
Community managers want notifications and the ability to respond quickly because they want to create a great experience for the visitors and members in their community. Pro-active and increased engagement in a community provides a better experience that is associated with the brand and helps the community grow.
With multiple desktop/mobile applications out there, one is constantly switching between these applications to get things done. Be it setting up schedules and meetings on calendars, reading emails, communicating with colleagues via messaging tools like slack/teams etc, there is always a constant move from one application to another. And for community managers, community itself is one additional application that also requires attention.

With Community and Slack integration, community managers/administrators/staff can be notified of community discussions on Slack instantly. And people can then reply, kudo, or discuss the post with others directly in Slack.
