No, Slack is not a CRM, but it does integrate with your CRM, including Salesforce, Hubspot and Zoho.
By using Slack and your CRM together, teams can easily stay in the loop on leads, account details and more from within Slack, allowing them to respond faster to new opportunities and collaborate seamlessly with colleagues across the organisation.
Salesforce was one of Slack’s earliest partners, letting teams easily stay up to date on their Salesforce records from within Slack.

Channels are where work happens in Slack. A channel is a single place for a team to share messages, tools and files. People often create channels for company announcements, customer support triage, asking for IT or HR help and sharing social interests.
Channels can be public (open to everyone at the organisation) or private (invitation only). In addition, organisations on a paid Slack subscription can share a channel with external partners such as agencies, clients and vendors with Slack Connect.
