Here are some common drawbacks in today’s most popular team communication apps:
Slack: The 90-day message history limit on the free plan forces growing teams into expensive upgrades just to keep their own data.
Microsoft teams: The real cost is often bundled into a larger, mandatory Microsoft 365 subscription — an expense many small businesses don’t need.
Discord: Unlimited message history comes with a professionalism gap and hidden productivity tax. Small file upload limits quickly push teams toward individual Nitro subscriptions that aren’t built for business budgets.
If you’re stuck with high costs and unnecessary limits, let’s see what your bill could look like with Pumble instead.
