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.

Easy setup and an a la carte pricing model
The solution needs a more modern interface. One of our biggest complaints is that we don't have the ability to dynamically push our interface to participants. Adobe Connect is an older technology, but it allows us to push our own layout and design to participants. One of the solution's strengths is that it's web-only but that is also a weakness. It is not a software solution but is browser-based which has its advantages and disadvantages. Zoom has become such a force that its ease of use surpasses ON24.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is stable."
"Microsoft Teams is bundled with Microsoft, so that's the number one valuable feature for me. It's easy to use."
"Microsoft Teams is an easy-to-use solution."
"You can ping, chat, and call someone, and at the same time, on the next tab, you can see all the documents related to what someone is referring to."
"I find the chat and messaging system in Microsoft Teams the most valuable for productivity. We replaced Zoom and other video conferencing tools with Teams for internal and external video calls. Teams is now our standard tool for communication, handling both audio and video conference calls."
"We like that you can get a lot of users on one call without the call actually failing or losing quality. Hosts can connect, if I recall correctly, up to 90,000 people. If you need a massive company-wide meeting, you can do it."
"The biggest advantage of Microsoft Teams is that it is a combined package where I can do chat, video conferencing, work on spreadsheets, documents, and other things with many people sitting at my desk, which makes work easy, especially with clients who are in remote locations, so it saves a lot of time."
"We can share all files on Microsoft Teams directly. It is integrated with Outlook."
"Friendly user interface and simple navigation."
"The solution works well with third-party integrations."
 

Cons

"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."
"Microsoft Teams withdrew the Wiki function, which was quite a good and useful feature."
"I would like to get more frequent updates, and the solution’s stability could be improved."
"I would rate the stability of Microsoft Teams as a six or seven, as there is a lot of audio drop in between, so it's not that stable."
"There's a feature that can send a notification to Team's channel, but I think there's no way to have it escalated on something like that."
"It is challenging to navigate the setting for the screen-sharing feature."
"Its stability could be better."
"The desktop and mobile apps are quite different."
"The solution needs a more modern interface."
"Bandwidth optimization could be increased."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a license needed to use Microsoft Teams."
"Microsoft Teams is priced less than other solutions, such as Bridge."
"The solution's pricing is average."
"It is a bit more than moderately expensive."
"Microsoft Teams is a cheap solution."
"The standalone license is not cheap."
"My understanding is that there are licensing fees, but I'm not sure how much they might be."
"It is affordable because it also includes the licenses on Microsoft Word, Microsoft Office and SharePoint."
"We paid $1,800 for five webinars, which is the standard fee. If you require support there is a $300 additional fee, extra attendees is an additional fee, integration is an additional fee, etc. All these extras could add on another $2,500 which was not in our budget."
