    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Slack. Here is what to change before March 1, 2027:
    
    1. Check your plan and renewal date. Look at billing in Slack admin. Note the plan, add-ons and renewal date.
    2. Ask Slack for a quote early. Ask your Account Executive which plan replaces yours and what it costs.
    3. Compare before you sign. Check the new price and features against your needs before your renewal after March 1, 2027.
