Collaboration has transformed daily work and supports seamless global voice communication
Microsoft Teams could be improved, especially regarding contact center solutions which have a growing need for omnichannel capabilities, integrating with external platforms such as social media and email for a unified experience. Minor improvements might include reintroducing features such as GPU options available in classic Microsoft Teams to address issues in modern Microsoft Teams related to video meetings and content sharing. Furthermore, essential information such as who started or ended recordings should be more accessible in the Microsoft Teams admin center. I rate it a nine because Microsoft Teams occasionally experiences glitches in the client, leading to missing chat history or other transient issues. The performance issues with the desktop client and the support service complexities contribute to my rating being less than perfect. I have not identified any other improvements needed for Microsoft Teams.

Pros

"We use Huddle to store important team files, and with a dispersed team, we set permissions on files that are relevant to each team, helping us keep files up to date and streamline projects."
"It helps our organization with faster communication."
"What I use the most is the plugin or the optimization feature."
"The corporate world widely accepts the solution for virtual meetings. Also, it has good availability."
"This has improved productivity and communication significantly."
"I find using Jira to create and share files within the channels very convenient. We can add simple things like spreadsheets or whiteboards to a channel, and all the sharing is done automatically. For example, when working on a project, I start a new channel, and everyone knows to go there to find all our documentation."
"The tool is simple to use."
"It's great for meeting conferences."
"For me, Microsoft Teams' most valuable features are online meetings, calls, and chat. While I also use it to access OneDrive and my calendar, the core functions I rely on are meetings and calls."
 

Cons

"I think the navigation from project to project could be improved, but other than that, nothing I would add."
"The interface must be more user-friendly."
"I think they can improve the all those segments for channel bulking. Also, some functionalities which migrated from Skype for Business to Teams, is not supported by Teams. We had used them in Skype for Business."
"We can currently only ping 15, but I'd like to see new features that allow for 20 or 25 pings; that would be good."
"If you're using this product in a big corporation with a lot of data to manage, finding something specific can become very complex and the solution can become a little bit quirky."
"The user interface could be improved, it's a bit tedious that you cannot move around within the solution without closing what you are in the middle of."
"The biggest issue with Microsoft Teams is switching identities, especially when communicating with external organizations."
"Signing up for a new device for the solution is challenging."
"Only once did we really get help from Microsoft support; the rest were cases we resolved ourselves while just exchanging useless emails with support."
