Seamless presentation and collaboration enhance organizational productivity

There are three main areas for improvement: Firstly, AI capabilities should be integrated into Microsoft Teams to provide better transcript services and offer multiple language support. Secondly, it should allow participants to remain visible during presentations, enhancing interaction. Lastly, it needs broader integration capabilities with other products, like Salesforce ( /vendors/salesforce ), which is currently limited.

Has an excellent Database Management System and high level of services, performance, and availability

We will need to implement prototypes in our data warehouse. We will have to implement and to support some different types of files like video, audio, pictures, and non-structured data. So we are working on that. We would like better integration for data security. We will have many partners, eight or nine external partners. We will still use our system to upgrade our warehouse. But with many partners, the data warehouse will not be unique. It will be a distributed data platform. So we would need and we are looking for many services to better manage the integrity and the use of all of the data. We are receiving all these data from trains and trucks that are working on the highways and on the roads. We will have to implement some facilities to adequately use all this data at a really high volume coming from IoT. So we are not choosing that and we will have to implement some services. Right now, we don't have any monitoring. We do have major density and access control, but when a user is in our environment, we do not have the services to really measure what he is doing. I will have to report in three months on the project and its evolution. I don't have the financials and the best practices regarding the financial models with costs and benefits for a major data platform with many partners. We will know what it will cost, but we will have to define some benefits because when I will be at the treasury board asking for a major project, they will ask me what would the benefits from that will be. I'm doing research into best practices. I know that the U.S. government has a platform like the one we want to build. It is a bigger one, from what I understand. I think that the state of California and maybe the state of New York has the type of platform we want to put in place. I would like to present more than just an article. I would like to have a reference model, to really be on target by showing the benefits that are possible down the road.

Quotes from Members

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

"The most valuable features are visual and audio, as they are very clear with no interruptions."

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is its UI...It is a stable solution."

"It's great for meetings and even hybrid classes, for example, where the teacher has students attending in person and online at the same time. It's really convenient for that too, and I like that you can easily share presentations."

"The planner and the breakout rooms are good and helpful features in Microsoft Teams."

"Its feature that allows for meetings is very good. Also, the solution's performance has been good, and there have been no issues. I rate the performance of the solution a ten out of ten."

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

More Microsoft Teams pros

"This solution has automated protection from downtime. High-availability is built into every component, and the backups are completely automated."

Cons

"I would like to get more frequent updates, and the solution’s stability could be improved."

"Teams requires a stronger network for joining conversations and meetings."

"It consumes a high amount of system memory."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is moderately expensive than other Microsoft products."
