Have streamlined daily workflow and task management but still face inconvenience from recent interface changes and limited integration options
There are challenges and issues in Microsoft Teams, such as after recent updates where group chats were combined with Teams, chats, and groups into one. Users have to work with settings to make it normal again so Teams are separated from chats, and that was a really inconvenient update. Many users ask me to help make it back again to separate Teams and groups from one-to-one chats. That's probably the worst update they've made recently. Additionally, there are some minor features, such as when I work with messages, I don't have an actual forward or quote option when replying to someone's message. I need to be careful not to miss the quote sign. For a lot of people, they are confused about where the quotes option is. I've received a couple of hundred support tickets just regarding this issue. The function to share email to Teams chat doesn't work sometimes due to our compliance policies, and sometimes it would be nice to be able to forward an email to the group chat and have further discussions. Microsoft Teams could improve by being less glitchy because it glitches a lot, leading to undelivered emails and undelivered messages. It would be beneficial if the MS application Shifts, which adds functionality to groups, could be integrated into the groups calendar. Currently, many teams don't use the app because it is not integrated with the general calendar or the Outlook calendar, making it basically a useless application. The platform needs less Copilot and more people. The general Copilot integration into the platform is less glitchy, but Microsoft Teams is quite heavy and glitchy sometimes. Stability depends a lot on compliance restrictions, policies, and quality of internet. Sometimes, when updates are enrolling, the platform glitches, breaks, or shuts down.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Teams is a communication platform that enables one-on-one communication as well as group communication, and it is convenient with recordings and AI tools such as automatic transcripts."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is that it is integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"Microsoft Teams is much easier to collaborate, and its meetings are quite easy to explain things."
"The product enables us to create teams for specific projects."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration with SharePoint where we can access it with a single click from the platform. The solution is available in web and mobile versions so it gives a seamless experience when we move from one device to another. Especially when you're on the calls, you don't need to get out of one device, and then log in to another, and then join that meeting. You need to just switch."
"Overall, this is a very good collaboration product and the only thing stopping me from giving it a perfect grade is the heavy bandwidth usage."
"Our company is moving from their Skype for Business to Teams, and I've seen it, looked at it, used it, and somewhat enjoyed the UI; Teams has been very friendly, and I have no qualms about going to Teams from Skype."
"The initial setup was really straightforward and easy."
"It works fine on lower networks as well."
 

Cons

"Microsoft Teams could improve because it is heavy on bandwidth. We have some access points and when we have 30 or 40 users on it with Microsoft Teams calls can drop. WebEx does not use as much bandwidth."
"Microsoft Teams could log in faster."
"I would like to get more frequent updates, and the solution’s stability could be improved."
"I would say that Microsoft Team invitations from the calendar within the solution could be improved."
"The future scalability can include the integration of planners, project management tools, SharePoint, and more applications that are used."
"One thing that could be improved is the auto-correction feature. When we type, we often send messages with spelling errors. While there is an edit feature to correct these mistakes, I think spelling-checking capabilities could still be improved."
"Microsoft Teams can start being more interactive and intuitive by implementing artificial intelligence and machine learning."
"We face issues related to screen-sharing and stability. It is very difficult to get Microsoft's support to troubleshoot the issues. The product also needs to update its recording features."
"They should reduce data consumption and improve network connection for video calls."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"The solution has a reasonable price in the market."
"There is a need to pay for the licensing... I know that the payments are made on a yearly basis...There are no extra costs in addition to the standard licensing."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution because it's included in the Microsoft 365 suite."
"The solution is part of enterprise Microsoft 365 licensing."
"The solution's cost is high."
"We have a license for the solution."
"The tool is cheaper than Google Meet. I rate it a three out of four."
"It is a cost-efficient solution."
