Microsoft Teams Reviews

I use Microsoft Teams for remote communication with other members of my team.

Screen sharing and chat retention are the most valuable features of Microsoft Teams.

Since Microsoft Teams is a typical Microsoft product, inviting guest users to the conversation can be problematic if they're not in the active directory.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for ten years.

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

Microsoft Teams is a pretty scalable solution. I rate Microsoft Teams a nine out of ten for scalability.

The solution's initial setup is pretty easy. I rate Microsoft Teams an eight out of ten for its ease of initial setup.

The solution's deployment takes about an hour.

Microsoft Teams' pricing is fine. I rate Microsoft Teams a three out of ten for pricing.

Microsoft Teams is deployed on-cloud in our organization.

Microsoft Teams is definitely better than Google Meet because Google Meet doesn't retain chat history after the sessions, which is not very good. Zoom is frustrating because the account management is all hosted by a third party. Zoom works, but you're constrained. Microsoft Teams is a little bit more flexible.

The advice I would give to people looking into using Microsoft Teams is that it is not linked directly to Active Directory. Even though it's called Microsoft, it's still a third-party plug-in. You have to be aware that Outlook Web Access needs to be enabled in order to use calendars and scheduling with people who aren't in your organization.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Teams a nine out of ten.

In my organization, we use Microsoft Teams and SharePoint for collaboration purposes. Microsoft Teams is the best collaboration platform since everything is integrated with the product. Most of the users of Microsoft in our organization are familiar with its technologies, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, making it easy for the end users to use SharePoint and Teams.

SharePoint is not really good for us. Microsoft Teams is integrated with email, and we are also using a team for collaboration because we work in a university where we have to collaborate with the students, making it an okay solution for us.

The room for improvement needed in Microsoft Teams depends on what you are looking for and your uses of the product.

Honestly, I would like not to see any improvements because all these improvements normally I don't use. It takes me only time to adapt to the new improvements in the product, and they don't add too much value for me. I would prefer Microsoft Teams to reduce their frequent updates.

I have experience with Microsoft Teams. I work at the university, and we are just a consultant for some companies.

The product's stability is decent. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten. I don't have any complaints about its stability.

We didn't face any problems with the product's scalability. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

In our workplace, we have 250 employees and 3,000 students who use Microsoft Teams.

We previously had our own solution, but we had a problem with the staff and other people in general, and eventually, it became too expensive for us. It was hard for us to find a system engineer or integrator. We decided to move to the cloud because it was impossible for us to manage such a relatively huge system considering that every year, we had about 600 to 700 students coming in, for whom we had to do the integration processes.

The setup phase of Microsoft Teams was easy.

The setup phase was completed in a couple of minutes because we have a good infrastructure, so we had no problem integrating the product with other solutions.

I am not involved in the deployment since it is covered under the services we get from Microsoft.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I can't speak on the steps involved in the deployment process since my company gets an expert from outside to do the deployment and integration for us.

We have two people, including one developer and one system administrator, for the deployment and maintenance of the solution. We don't really have any problems with the deployment and maintenance because everything is on the cloud.

Our organization used Microsoft's services in the cloud for deployment purposes since it is much cheaper and easier for us than to have our own infrastructure for deployment. In short, we didn't do the deployment in-house.

For my organization, we are okay with the ROI that the product provides.

The government takes care of the licenses with Microsoft and all the other legal stuff since we are a state university. The prices are much lower when the government negotiates with Microsoft rather than when we do it ourselves.

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

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Microsoft Teams provides everything that users need, including the cameras and attachments. With the help of Teams, you can manage your data transfer into the environment.

Almost 70% of the world currently uses Microsoft Teams because it is easy to use.

I would like to get less frequent updates from the solution.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for many years.

I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.

Around 3,50,000 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability eight and a half out of ten.

Microsoft Teams is a better video conferencing tool than Skype.

Microsoft Teams has good features that users require. We can connect with Microsoft Teams from anywhere in the world. Even if you don't have a phone, you can connect with Microsoft Teams. You only require an internet connection.

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

We've got different groups for each course at the university on Teams, so we use it mostly as a communication platform with students and staff. We use the file-sharing function, which is based on SharePoint.

The file-sharing function is connected to the SharePoint platform, we mostly use this, and most of the time, these components are integrated with Office applications like Excel or PowerPoint. 

We don't have the email function in Teams. We use a separate software for that, and unfortunately, we don't have the Calendar function.

Communication within the university has improved. For one, every conversation has its history well organized, making it easier to search for previous conversations or topics. 

Also, the contact list views are useful; everyone from the university is there, and you can easily make a video call. It's easier for students to reach teachers, and communication is faster because you get notifications.

We also use it with the integration of Microsoft applications.

The data IP identification for each message and the ability to organize discussions in separate channels within a team.

Microsoft Teams' video conferencing capabilities are good. The direction is very good, especially since we started using that feature early on. 

The experience has gotten a lot better. In the beginning, it was difficult for a lot of people in a video conference. We couldn't see all the participants or it was difficult to move the screens around. But now, it's much more convenient to use.

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.

Sharing presentations is easy, which is particularly convenient for hybrid classes where the teacher has students both on-site and online.

The only issue is sometimes, when I share my screen, and there's text on it, the compression can make it very blurry. If Teams could solve this problem so that text remains clear during screen sharing, that would be nice.

We started using Microsoft Teams at the company four years ago.

I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. There have been some problems throughout using Teams, but they only affected one or two days at most. 

From my point of view,  the scalability seems very good. We didn't have any problems. It's not the highest level we have from Microsoft services, but even with courses with more than a hundred participants, there are no problems.

There are around a thousand end users in my university. Students come in and they graduate, so that number doesn't change much.

I would rate my experience with the initial setup a nine out of ten, with ten being easy to set up. 

It is easy to set up. 

The pricing is okay. The higher education department manages the subscription, so I am unaware of the licensing costs. 

I would recommend using different types of Teams for work. You can create several kinds of things for your work, and that's a key or very important point to select the right one for your needs. 

Also, it is good to know about other applications you can integrate with it because that can also increase productivity.

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

We use Microsoft Teams for all kinds of online meetings, cards, chats, and everything.

Microsoft Teams is bundled with Microsoft, so that's the number one valuable feature for me. It's easy to use. It is also hugely connected and stable.

I think the ability to use a whiteboard in the solution is not very simple. You need to have it separately. Also, sharing is something in the solution that becomes quite complicated sometimes.

I have been using Microsoft Teams. It's a great solution. From the time COVID started, my company has been using Microsoft Teams. We started using it somewhere around 2018 or 2019. I am just a user of the solution.

I haven't seen any stability issues in the solution.

Microsoft Teams is very easy to scale. In my company, we have around 40,000 to 50,000 users of the solution.

I don't know about Microsoft's support because we don't see all that since we have our own in-house teams.

I had Microsoft Teams installed by the IT department.

I wouldn't have any advice to offer because I don't know other solutions very well. I am like a fish in a pond that has never seen anything beyond the pond. Since I am satisfied with the solution, I would recommend it to others.

I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.

The product helps to create meetings and share data through SharePoint. 

 SharePoint is the most important thing of the solution where you can share your data. I am also impressed with the real-time transcript feature. 

The product should improve its pricing. 

I have been working with the product for a year. 

The solution is stable and would rate its stability an eight out of ten. 

The solution is scalable and I would rate it a seven out of ten. My company has 500 users for the product. 

We used Zoom before and as an organization, we were in a testing mode on finding a solution that gave us more benefits and connected the departments easily. We use Microsoft 365 and Teams is an integrated service of the bundle. Hence, it is good for us. 

We have deployed the solution on the cloud. 

The solution is expensive and I would rate it a nine out of ten. 

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. Teams is the best compared to Zoom or Google Meet since it is easy to use. You need to take the whole package of Microsoft 365 and get Teams easily integrated with it. It's not necessary to buy individual licenses for Teams. 

We use the solution to conduct meetings with our team and customers. We also use it to create a group and store various documents so everyone can access them.

The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to store all the documents in one place.

They should allow switching between windows in a Teams meeting.

I have been using the solution for seven to eight years.

The solution is stable. I've never had an issue. I rate its stability a ten out of ten.

It is quite a scalable solution because we have over 1,500 employees using it. I rate its scalability an eight out of ten.

I have used Skype for Business. Later, I switched to Microsoft Teams because it is a much-improved tool comparatively. Skype has a calling and chatting interface. Microsoft Teams has more of a collaborative interface. From that perspective, Microsoft Teams is the add-on.

The solution's initial setup is straightforward as it is easy to use. I rate the process a nine out of ten.

I recommend the solution to others. Compared to other collaborative tools, Microsoft Teams is more beneficial because it allows you to collaborate and share key documents in one repository, keep a group that can chat about a project, and discusses along with all the documentation in one place. Additionally, it has all the integration points if I need to access a ticket about Microsoft CRM or a ticket about Salesforce CRM.

I rate it a nine out of ten.

I use the product for internal communication, SharePoint, and other tasks. I have deployed it everywhere. It can be used for meetings, external communications, and work collaboration. We can also use applications like Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and other integrations like Adobe in the solution.

The product is very user-friendly. It also provides a mobile application to keep us up to date. It works fine in terms of meetings and remote access. Task scheduling, planning, SharePoint, and secure remote access for troubleshooting and support are valuable features of the solution. Our end users are very happy with the product.

The solution is good. We have had no major issues till now. For audit and security, eDiscovery is pretty good. The product also provides good email security, location security, and security against phishing, spam and malware. We also tried implementing an image security solution to ensure our environment is more secure.

The product should improve its security.

I have been using the solution for the last four years.

I rate the solution’s stability a ten out of ten.

I rate the product’s scalability a ten out of ten. In our organization, 150 people are using the solution. I have plans to increase the number of users by 10% till next year.

The setup is very straightforward. We deploy it through the network to our users, add the usernames and passwords, and configure it. The solution is cloud-based.

The deployment takes five to ten minutes for one user. We can deploy the solution for one user on their device, or we can deploy a script over the network. Then, the installation is done through patch management. The deployment was done in-house. We do not need much staff. Two of my employees and I can deploy and support levels one and two. For level three support, we have a team that supports remotely.

The solution is affordable. It is not expensive.

I am using the latest version of the product. I have a contract with Microsoft for Microsoft 365. I'm happy with the product. Since we are in a group, we implement the product. The group is doing good work with Microsoft, and we have a good deal with them. I would recommend the solution. 

I am planning to test Microsoft Defender for an image security solution. Microsoft should improve Intune for mobile device management. Intune's dashboard is a bit difficult to understand. It should be made easier. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.
