Arun Srivastav - PeerSpot reviewer
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, which is currently limited.

Is excellent for video conferencing, with a very high usage rate
There are a few technical aspects that might need assistance, such as enabling Vidyo inside a web browser as opposed to using it via an SDK in an app. Occasionally, issues can arise when using video conferencing in third-party applications. Feedback from developers could be beneficial for improving these areas.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's scalability works well."
"The integration, ability to share documents is very good."
"The tool's user interface is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is its video calling feature which makes it easier to work on the solution."
"This solution is great for ad hoc video conferencing. It's so easy to start a meeting."
"The solution is easy to use and helps me to communicate with my students."
"The initial setup was really straightforward and easy."
"The feature I like most in Microsoft Teams is the ability to work on the same file with other people, for example, on Microsoft PowerPoint, or Microsoft Excel, without needing to share the file via email."
"Vidyo is excellent for video conferencing, with a very high usage rate alongside Epic Solutions."
 

Cons

"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."
"The product needs to improve its stability."
"I have faced issues with connection. Maybe, it's an issue from my side. The company accounts in Teams has some issues as well. I could not establish calls with certain domains, and then the product asked me to buy a professional account. The problem with Teams is that they are split between professional or company accounts and personal accounts. It's not very clear how you can go from one to another. That's the main issue with teams."
"User interface could be improved"
"The product's support can be better."
"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."
"The security needs improvement, as well as the ability to back up private chats."
"Microsoft Teams withdrew the Wiki function, which was quite a good and useful feature."
"There are a few technical aspects that might need assistance, such as enabling Vidyo inside a web browser as opposed to using it via an SDK in an app."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the pricing as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Pricing is free to a threshold and then after that you have to license per user."
"We need to pay for Microsoft Teams' licenses on a yearly basis."
"My understanding is that there are licensing fees, but I'm not sure how much they might be."
"We are using the free version of the solutions."
"Microsoft Teams' pricing is fine."
"The tool's price is high. We purchase Microsoft Office 365 on per user basis and we get support also on that basis."
