Frequently Asked Questions
Other tools sit outside your daily flow. Chaser lives in Slack, making task tracking easy for your team and giving you a clear view of what’s due, what’s late, and what needs attention.
How is Chaser different from Monday, Asana, or ClickUp?
Chaser is purpose-built for teams that already live in Slack.
While Monday, Asana, and ClickUp are powerful tools designed for deep project planning in standalone apps, Chaser keeps everything inside Slack—so your team doesn’t have to change how they work or learn a new system.

How does project management in Slack work with Chaser?
Here’s what happens when your team starts using Chaser:
- Tasks can be created in the middle of your conversations in Slack.
- Your dashboard shows all tasks, grouped by the channel they were made in. This means no more manually creating/deleting project boards and managing who has access – your Slack channels act like “projects” and the members of each channel can see all the tasks.

What’s the difference between Slack task management and traditional project management tools?
Slack task management is built for execution inside the place your team already works, while traditional project management tools are built for planning inside a separate system.
With Slack-first task management (like Chaser), tasks, updates, and reminders live directly in Slack, so people don’t have to change behavior or switch tabs to stay on track. It’s fast to adopt, easy to learn, and stays up to date because tasks come with automatic reminders and status checks by default.
Traditional project management tools (like Asana, Monday, ClickUp, Trello, etc.) are typically standalone web and mobile apps designed for deeper project planning. They offer more advanced features - things like dependencies, Gantt charts, workload management, and highly customizable workflows - but they often require setup, onboarding, and ongoing maintenance. The biggest risk is adoption: visibility and dashboards are only accurate if the team consistently logs in and updates tasks.
In short: Slack task management wins on speed, simplicity, and engagement, while traditional PM tools win on depth, structure, and advanced planning.
Do I need to get Chaser for everyone in my Slack workspace?
Nope. You choose exactly who gets access — add the people who need it and leave everyone else out.
