Current pricing — Slack vs Discord
Which is cheaper for you?
Decision matrix based on verified June 2026 pricing. Assumes per-seat/monthly billing unless noted.
Discord's free tier is fully featured with unlimited servers and unlimited history. Slack Free limits message history to 90 days -- a significant constraint for keeping records.
Discord is effectively free for basic team comms. Slack Pro at $8.75/user/mo adds up for a 10-person team ($87.50/mo). Discord Nitro at $9.99/mo is per-user optional, not a team seat requirement.
Slack Business+ at $18/user has SAML SSO, data export for compliance, and enterprise-grade audit logs. Discord has no equivalent enterprise tier -- it's not built for enterprise security requirements.
Slack Enterprise Grid has compliance certifications, data residency options, and enterprise-grade security. Discord is a gaming-origin platform with no enterprise security tier -- not suitable for regulated industries.
The Slack API integration ecosystem for developer tooling is orders of magnitude larger than Discord's. CI/CD alerts, deploy notifications, monitoring -- nearly every dev tool integrates with Slack first.
Discord wins for informal teams and communities where cost matters. Slack wins for enterprise-grade security and developer integrations.
