Why Do You Need to Back Up Slack?

While Slack’s retention options help with accessibility and compliance, they don’t fully protect your Slack data from accidental deletions, security breaches, or outages. A dedicated Slack backup service ensures you can quickly restore lost files, messages, or channels, keeping your Slack workspace intact in unexpected situations.

Also, Slack backup services help meet legal and regulatory requirements, such as GDPR and HIPAA. With features like legal holds and retention policies, you can manage your data more effectively and ensure proper Slack data management. This provides added security and peace of mind by filling the gaps left by Slack’s built-in retention features.

ExchangeSavvy FAQs

Get answers to the most common questions about our data protection platform.

QIs there a way to back up Slack?

Yes, with the Cohesity Alta Saas Protection tenant hosted by ExchangeSavvy. We can back up Slack workspaces under Professional+, Business+, and Enterprise+ plans.

Slack data is stored in a dedicated store within the ExchangeSavvy-hosted Alta SaaS Protection tenant.

If the Slack message was backed up first, then no, it is not permanently deleted. The only way to permanently delete a Slack message from the backup is if there is no retention policy (or an expired retention policy), the message is not on legal hold, and a deletion policy has been created to remove it.

Yes, all chat history, for public, private, and 1:1 chat history, is backed up.
