Whiteboard and content sharing features are good

I would rate Teams's stability as a nine out of ten. However, some recent updates have made it less stable. I find it a little bit choppy. Sometimes, I find the network quality is not very good with low bandwidth. So, sometimes, when you have low bandwidth the quality becomes very poor. So, you have to optimize your usage.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The ability to scale videos is a valuable feature of the product."

"Microsoft Teams can facilitate the broadcast of information and distribution of tasks through a single platform."

"The instant messaging and video meeting features in Microsoft Teams improve my productivity the most. Instant messaging allows for faster responses compared to email. With many colleagues working remotely, video meetings are often the only way to connect. I could even participate in my last meeting while driving to another city. Having meetings, with some people in a meeting room and others joining remotely, is also very useful."

"It is easy to share and collaborate, including built-in, edit-in-place, autosave features, without having to download, edit, save, or upload."

"The tool makes it easy for us to book meetings. It seamlessly integrates with the Office application which we are using for the last four years."

"The most valuable features are that it is an all-in-one platform, making it very easy for collaboration with your core employees."

"Integration with document management capabilities and video conferencing."

"Microsoft Teams is a very good collaborative tool."

"We can share all files on Microsoft Teams directly. It is integrated with Outlook."

Cons

"The solution must allow users to record videos for a longer time."

"The integration with SharePoint can be cumbersome at times."

"The solution needs to have subtitles."

"The solution is very expensive and I won't be able to afford it personally."

"After six months of working with it, I still find the UI a little clunky when it comes to sharing content and moving around between features like the calendar and files."

"The solution should include features like scripting, meeting summarization, and automated notes."

"They should allow switching between windows in a Teams meeting."

"There are a lot of frequent updates, which is a shortcoming of the tool."

"The solution’s pricing could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"I don't think the solution is as expensive as big Webex licenses. It doesn't usually offer one-on-one licenses, so it's hard to compare. It's more expensive than the Google equivalent, but you can't replace Microsoft Teams with Google's offering."

"It is moderately expensive than other Microsoft products."

"The solution's pricing is reasonable and I would rate it an eight out of ten."

"The solution is priced high."

"I rate Microsoft Teams an eight out of ten for its pricing."

"I would rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."

"I rate the pricing as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The challenge with Microsoft's licensing model is that the prices are on the higher side, especially for companies that have more users where spending a lot on licenses may be required."
