Slab would be specifically appropriate for sharing company materials and resources however, would be less appropriate if there was sensitive information that could potentially be shared across other LOB's that should not access that information. It might be beneficial to add a password protected feature or different levels of users to access different information or be allowed to edit. In the customer service role, Slab is well suited to house training materials, scripts, etc. as well as keep everyone accountable for the same processes. It will be hugely beneficial in the future to share with any third party staffing

It's great for adding a commonly used big chunk of text so that it saves you time as you don't need to write it all over and over again, for example an opening sentence or a finishing note. It's not great to use on more custom texts, as you'll need to tweak your text, and it could lead to mistakes

  • I'd like to be able to mass format my snippets, like adding a sign as a delimiter for all snippets in a list

I truly wish the interface was a bit easier to use and understand, but that’s just a small critique. Generally speaking, it is very user friendly and is is very reliable for use. Here and there it won’t work but those are very rare occasions. I wish it integrated more Ai.
