What do you dislike about Microsoft Teams?

What I dislike about Microsoft Teams is that it can be resource-intensive, causing slow performance on lower-end devices. Additionally, its wide range of features can feel overwhelming for new users, and managing multiple notifications across channels can become cumbersome if not properly configured.

What do you like best about Microsoft Teams?

What i like most about microsoft team is how it makes everything so easy. It brings all the tools you need like chat, video calls, file sharing into one place, so i am not jumping constantly between diffrent apps. I also really appreciate how it works with other microsoft apps like word, excel and onedrive. Its super helpful for collabrating with others, especially when working remotely. It keeps everything organised and saves a lot of time which is a big win for getting things done efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Teams?

What i find frustrating about microsoft teams is especially on android app is the availablility status. there are times when it just shows the person name without indicating if they are online or busy or offiline. This make it tough to know whether i can reach out or they are tied up with something. Its a little thing but it can definately make using the app feel less smooth, especially when i am trying to connect with someone quiickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

Microsoft Teams is really helping to tackle the problem of scattered communiction tools in the work place. Instead of juggling a bunch of diffrent apps for chatting, videoc calls and file sharing, everything is in one place. This makes it so much easier for me to connect with my colleques and collaborate on projects. For business stand point, teams is a game changer for remote work. It keeps everyine connected and on the same page, no matter where they are located. Plus it streamlines project mamagement so we can make decision faster and work efficiently. Overall it boosts our productivity and help creates a stronger sense of teamwork. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
