Updates to Slack’s plans and pricing

Hi Slack Community: I’m writing with some important updates to Slack’s plans and pricing.  

We are committed to giving every team an onramp to AI-powered productivity in Slack, and every organization a secure foundation to grow with digital labor. As such, pricing has been simplified, delivering new features across every plan. 

Features highlights

• AI features are being integrated across all paid plans. 
• AI agents from Agentforce and partner AI apps can now be deployed in all paid plans
• Every Salesforce customer will get Slack’s free plan, with access to the brand new Salesforce Channels feature, bringing Slack and Salesforce even closer together.
• We’re enhancing security across all plans, bringing session duration controls and native device management to all of our plans, including Free, and adding SAML-based SSO for Salesforce customers — giving every team a trusted foundation to securely connect their people, data, AI, and agents.

Pricing highlights (Read more about the plans on the Slack Plans page)

• Free subscribers will maintain access to their current features and will gain access to Salesforce channels.
• Pro pricing will stay the same and will now include core AI features, Salesforce channels and enhanced security. 
• Business+ plan pricing will increase to $15 from $12.50 per user per month to reflect the significant value added through new advanced AI capabilities and premium Salesforce integrations.
• We are introducing a new Enterprise+ plan which includes enterprise search in addition to the full Slack feature set including enterprise-grade AI, premium Salesforce integrations and enhanced security, admin controls, governance and compliance (contact your sales rep to learn more).

We are facing a limitation with the Slack sandbox (developer environment), where the user limit is restricted to 8 members. For our use case, this is quite limiting, as we want to perform realistic UAT and integration testing that closely mirrors our production environment.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Are there any options or recommended approaches to create a sandbox/testing environment that more closely resembles a production Enterprise Grid setup (in terms of users, apps, and integrations)?
2. How are other organizations handling large-scale testing given the sandbox user limit?
3. What are the best practices or enterprise-level strategies for testing Slack + Salesforce integrations before going live?

Any guidance, real-world experiences, or recommended approaches would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
