I wouldn't be so sure. Slack was just a better product overall, offering a clear interafce and much better integrations than Hipchat. Hipchat being slow did not impact them as much as having a mediocre product to begin with.

About Yammer, I wouldn't really put it in the same bucket as Slack, as it really tries to be a Facebook for your company, not a group chat.
