does Slack have an on premise option? because I think many corporate customers would definitely pay for it, despite all the cloud/saas hype. there are still orgs out there that dont want their comms outside their premises.
Having used team chats based on Jabber, IRC, Slack (in that chronological order), there is a huge difference. Jabber and IRC have always been pure chats, whereas Slack is the first chat platform where people actually use integrations and bots to a large extent. (Also, Jabber/IRC doesn't have /remind, my personal killer feature about Slack.)

Zulip and Mattermost are alternatives that can be hosted (they're both open source software).

It's called IRC/Jabber + whatever web/GUI/CLI UI is desired. Many companies deploy it internally.
