Microsoft Teams Reviews

We use Microsoft Teams as a communication tool with clients and internal teams. 

During my early days in the IT field, Microsoft Outlook was the only form of communication available. However, the solution has benefitted us with immediate chats with colleagues. The tool makes it easy to conduct chats and meetings. Since Microsoft Teams is a Microsoft product, it is synced with Microsoft Outlook. It has made improvements in day-to-day productivity. 

I like the solution's chat and meeting feature. We have different teams and the product helps us to communicate fastly. Within five minutes all the teams can be on the same page. 

It would be better if Microsoft Teams can link us to the internet on the screen sharing mode during the meeting. 

I have been using Microsoft Teams for the last three years. 

I would rate the product's stability a ten out of ten since I didn't face any problems while using it. 

I would rate Microsoft Teams' scalability a nine out of ten. My company has 40,000-50,000 employees globally and everyone has a Microsoft Teams account. About 60-70 percent of my company's workforce is working from home and we use the product to communicate with our team on a daily basis. We increase the tool's usage as new employees join us. 

Microsoft provides 24/7 support.

Positive

The tool's price is high. We purchase Microsoft Office 365 on per user basis and we get support also on that basis. 

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. The product requires maintenance based on the user ratio. If you have the budget, then you can use the solution. If you are not capable of using Microsoft Teams, then find other alternatives which suit your organization. 

We use the product for internal and client meetings. 

The solution has improved internal collaboration. We can seamlessly interact on a number of documents by projecting them on the screen. This experience is not with internal teams but with clients as well.

The solution has a plugin app called Whiteboard which is useful. I am also impressed with the product's projecting on screen, audio and the video. 

The chat option in the Teams tab is not very helpful. We don't use it very often. There is also an expiration on the recordings. It would be useful to not have a time limit.

I have been using the product since the start of the lockdown in March 2022. 

I would rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten. I have faced issues due to network connectivity. 

I would rate the product's scalability a nine-point five out of ten. The whole world uses Office and it's an extension of it. My company has around 200 users for the product. Since we are a law firm, users are mostly non-technical persons. We use the solution daily. 

I have been never required to contact the technical support at Microsoft since the functionality is basic. 

We have used VC software but switched to Teams because its easier to understand. 

The tool's installation is easy and it is installed on our laptops. The solution's deployment was fast and we deployed it throughout the organization within two to three days. One technical person from our Delhi office helped us with the product's installation. I think that one person would be enough to handle the installation in an office of 60 people. 

The product's installation was done in-house. The IT team helped us with that. They took our laptops and helped us to install them.

We have a subscription to Zoom. Zoom is more suited for conferences and seminars or when you have a large number who are attending the meeting. Teams is useful when you have a small gathering and want to have focused conversations with either your clients or internally. 

I would rate the product a nine-point five out of ten because of the ease of use. The solution is integrated with Office 365's Calendar. You can open Outlook and access it from there which makes it very seamless. The solution is a great software and I recommend it highly. The main reason that Teams have an edge is that, in most offices, there is limited accessibility to Gmail and hence problems with Google Meet. 

The primary aim was to enable remote work, organize meetings and utilize it as an instant messaging tool across the organization. We have around 2000 users on Microsoft Teams. 

Teams reduced our high traveling costs too as we are conducting training sessions remotely instead of visiting branches. We have a large network of branches across the country and abroad. Teams has strong integration with Office 365 tools which helps with collaborating on documents shared during meetings and conversations with team members in the groups.

Microsoft Teams reduced the significant cost of traveling. We have a large-scale network of branches in the country and abroad too. It became pretty easy to share documents across different teams, groups, and individually. 

Instant chat made people more engaged and reachable at all times. Instead of sending email to colleagues, we can discuss and share documents immediately. 

The mobile app really enabled us to connect meetings on the go from anywhere. 

We regularly organize seminars for distributors, and this channel helped us organize a large audience online.

It offers seamless Microsoft 365 integration. With Teams integration, you can quickly create teams within a group, bring deleted groups back, edit the group email alias, and use sensitivity labels. 

Chat is one of the key features of Microsoft Teams. Whether it’s just with one person or with a group chat allows you to instantly message team members for quick discussions and feedback. 

You’ll have less clutter in your inbox as prompt, quick questions get resolved over Teams chat rather than a potentially long wait for an email reply.

The interface must be improved to reflect the true face of Office 365. External user visibility must be available in the next releases of Microsoft Teams. 

User activity logs must be available along with more task management capabilities. 

Microsoft Teams is able to translate slides into multiple languages. It also is able to transcribe audio from multiple languages. It would be beneficial if it could also take the transcription in one language and translate it into another. It may not be great since the source is audio. However, it would be helpful in a situation when professional translation services are not available.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for seven years.

Technical support is awesome.

Positive

I did not previously use a different solution. 

The solution is simple and straightforward.

The vendor team is extremely professional.

This product is quite economical.

We did also evaluate Zoom.

I use the tool to have virtual meetings with my customers.

I think it's a worldwide platform that can be used by all companies. It's also very easy to use and integrate with Microsoft Exchange.

The tool is perfect for the present. I don't know how to upgrade some features for integration. It is difficult when it comes to integration with other platforms in some organizations. For some small customers, with the features of Microsoft Teams, I am not sure about how to update it. I want feedback about some features from the customers of Microsoft Teams. Improvement-wise, there needs to be a better way to search for a customer such that it gives an indication while being integrated into some other platform, like LinkedIn.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for about nine years. I am a customer of the solution.

I think it is stable when I use it for meetings with my customers.

Around 1,000 people use the solution.

Microsoft Teams is deployed on the cloud. The initial setup of Microsoft Teams is easy.

I would definitely recommend the solution to those planning to use it.

It is a stable platform that can integrate with Microsoft Exchange because I use Microsoft Exchange in my electronic mail. When I am in a meeting with my customer, I can get the meeting link and send it to the host calendar. It's easy to use. There is also the tool's platform available on mobile, making it easy to use when traveling.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use the solution in our company primarily for collaboration, file sharing, and the chat functionality it provides our team.

If you talk about the tool's disadvantages, it consists of losing connection. It's also a problem that it only stores information for up to 40 days. The aforementioned areas can be considered for improvement.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for almost four years. I am using the solution's latest version.

Stability-wise, the major issue is with the connection since it loses pieces of chats in between. Therefore, people don't rely on the tool since they know that whatever they have communicated with someone may not always be in their chat history.

Microsoft Teams is a scalable tool because it integrates with many other tools and different kinds of apps. It is a really good tool because you can plan your meetings, you can take notes, and run your scrum meets. In all the aforementioned aspects, it's really good.

Maybe more than 500 users are using the tool in our company.

Only the IT personnel interacting with Microsoft would have experience with Microsoft's technical support.

Slack was used quite a lot before. Microsoft Teams is a replacement for Skype as well. Skype has been totally ruled out now by our company.

Microsoft Teams is much better because Skype is just a very small tool used for its chat functionality. With Teams, you get many different features for sharing files. However, Microsoft Teams has a problem of losing connection many times, though not always, but it gets slow. It has the problem of storing information for only up to 30 days or 40 days, depending upon your organization's policy. Hence, not many people at times prefer to interact over the tool since their conversation gets lost.

It's a good product. I think that with the package of Microsoft Outlook itself, most organizations are going forward with Microsoft Teams. I am not aware if there is anything else that they would be looking forward to, but I can say that the tool has a scope for improvement. As a user of the tool, I can say that Microsoft Teams is not a 100 percent reliable solution.

Trust is the main factor. I see that users do not trust the tool, and they still prefer to send emails because they feel that whatever information they are sending using the tool may get lost. Hence, that makes it a big concern.

I rate the overall solution a six out of ten.

We use Microsoft Teams for messaging, group chats, and video calls.

You can coordinate meetings more rapidly with Microsoft Teams. You can use the solution to get a group of people together quicker.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Teams are video conferencing, chat function, and the one that shows you that you've got new messages.

Microsoft Teams withdrew the Wiki function, which was quite a good and useful feature. The solution has withdrawn the Wiki function in favor of SharePoint.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for two years.

I rate Microsoft Teams a five out of ten for stability.

Microsoft Teams is a completely scalable solution. Every employee in my organization uses the solution, and I use the solution every day.

I rate Microsoft Teams a ten out of ten for scalability.

Microsoft Teams is deployed on-cloud in our organization. My advice to someone considering Microsoft Teams for their company would be to check it out against their use case requirements.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Teams a six to seven out of ten.

I would say the three most important features are Planner, SharePoint Integration with the file structure, and the Channel functionality. With the channel functionality, we can create and manage people, including external users.

There are two topics I'd like to address regarding Microsoft Teams software. First, it is programmed in Electron, which, in my opinion, makes it sluggish. Improving the performance and reducing high CPU utilization would be a great enhancement. 

Secondly, in terms of functionality, I would like to see support for multi-user or multiple windows for the File structure. Currently, this can only be done through the browser, and you need to switch accounts to access different windows. Additionally, better support for working with multiple tenants is an ongoing issue.

We've been an early adopter of Microsoft Teams. I've been using it since the platform was developed. So, it's been around 15 years, more or less.

We currently use the latest version.

It is a stable solution. Our entire company operates on this platform, and it has proven to be quite stable. Currently, around 70 end-users are working with Microsoft Teams.

For our scenarios, scalability is quite high. We mainly set up infrastructure for small and medium corporate clients, so we use the public cloud. We have not faced any scalability issues for up to 20 users, which is the maximum size of clients we typically serve. So, for our specialization, there haven't been any scalability concerns.

The initial setup was okay. For me, as a technical guy, it's easy.

Within a day, we are able to configure everything. Then, there is domain setup, which may take a little time to propagate the domain and other settings because we are configuring clients with websites. So, in general, the configuration takes about two days, and the clients are up and running.

We primarily sell the packages we receive from Microsoft to our customers, including email services and other features. From my perspective, the pricing is totally okay.

We also use Slack but primarily we are more of a Microsoft-based company.

We heavily use Microsoft Teams. Moreover, it's interesting that Salesforce acquired Slack. We do use Slack internally for some occasions. But, in general, most of our clients in corporate environments prefer Microsoft Teams. So, we have a clear preference for flexibility with Microsoft Teams.

Microsoft Teams is definitely worth adopting. It's a great way to start digitalizing your company and enabling remote work. Without this tool, it's challenging to operate efficiently. There are alternative solutions like Slack, but they are not as compatible with the broader Microsoft ecosystem. With Microsoft Teams, everything integrates seamlessly. You can access files and collaborate through both desktop and mobile applications.

Overall, I'd rate it an eight out of ten because a few points need improvement. Firstly, the CPU utilization can be quite high during calls, which drains the laptop battery quickly. Secondly, there is some sluggishness and delays that can be frustrating. Lastly, working with multiple tenants can be tedious and should be resolved. 

We use Microsoft Teams for training and meetings.

The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is that it is easy to use.

Microsoft Teams could improve the integration with Outlook because most of us are not using the last version of Outlook and it causes some issues.

In the next release of Microsoft Teams, they should make the mobile application easier to manage. Additionally, they should add more features.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for approximately two years.

Microsoft Teams is a stable solution. However, we have to turn it off and reconnect sometimes.

Microsoft Teams is a scalable solution. We have more than 600 users using this solution, from all levels in my organization. We have no problem with all our users using this solution.

I have not contacted the support from Microsoft. We have our own internal support.

We previously used other solutions, such as Bridge and an internal application. Microsoft Teams is the easiest to use.

The implementation of Microsoft Teams is easy on the laptop but sometimes we are facing some difficulties with the phone.

I rate the initial setup of Microsoft Teams a three out of five.

Microsoft Teams is priced less than other solutions, such as Bridge.

I rate the price of Microsoft Teams a four out of five.

I rate Microsoft Teams a seven out of ten.
