Slack now has 8 million daily active users, 3 million paid users

In a Medium post, Slack reported new growth milestones that include 8 million daily active users across 500,000 organizations.

The company said it has over 3 million paid users, with 65 percent of the Fortune 100 signed up as paying customers.

“More than half of Slack’s users are outside of the US, including some of our fastest-growing markets,” the company writes. “For example, Italy is our fastest-growing market outside the US for paid users, Austria for newly paid teams, and Japan just surpassed the UK to be our second-biggest market by DAUs.”

There are currently over 1,500 apps in the Slack App Directory, and integrations with companies like Google, Workday, SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Concur. Slack says there are over 200,000 weekly active developers building on its platform.

Slack was started in Vancouver by Canadian entrepreneur Stewart Butterfield and now has its headquarters based in San Francisco.
