Collaboration has transformed daily work and supports seamless global voice communication
Microsoft Teams could be improved, especially regarding contact center solutions which have a growing need for omnichannel capabilities, integrating with external platforms such as social media and email for a unified experience. Minor improvements might include reintroducing features such as GPU options available in classic Microsoft Teams to address issues in modern Microsoft Teams related to video meetings and content sharing. Furthermore, essential information such as who started or ended recordings should be more accessible in the Microsoft Teams admin center. I rate it a nine because Microsoft Teams occasionally experiences glitches in the client, leading to missing chat history or other transient issues. The performance issues with the desktop client and the support service complexities contribute to my rating being less than perfect. I have not identified any other improvements needed for Microsoft Teams.

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:
 

Pros

"It is an excellent all-around communications tool that works well for business purposes."
"The solution provides very clear conferencing, even on mobile devices."
"The features of Microsoft Teams I find most useful for team productivity are mainly the screen sharing feature, along with recordings and automatically generated transcripts when we do recording."
"Microsoft Teams is much more stable than other solutions like Skype for Business."
"Overall, this is a very good collaboration product and the only thing stopping me from giving it a perfect grade is the heavy bandwidth usage."
"This is a stable solution, I have not faced any problems using the video conferencing."
"The solution is easy to use and helps me to communicate with my students."
"The mobile app really enabled us to connect meetings on the go from anywhere."
"This solution has automated protection from downtime. High-availability is built into every component, and the backups are completely automated."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that it is self-driving, self-securing, and self-repairing."
"We have really high level of services, performance, availability, and it is stable, and everything works together really well."
 

Cons

"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"They should allow switching between windows in a Teams meeting."
"Adding and integrating more apps like SharePoint on Microsoft Teams is making the solution very slow."
"The call quality could be better sometimes. Microsoft could improve the quality of the backgrounds. File sharing could also be smoother. It takes a lot of clicks to download and copy the links. It should be only one click."
"After six months of working with it, I still find the UI a little clunky when it comes to sharing content and moving around between features like the calendar and files."
"Microsoft Teams is quite demanding on bandwidth, which has been a problem during the COVID situation because we don't get enterprise-class bandwidth at home."
"The solution's interface probably needs to be a bit different in terms of cloud sharing."
"I had to type the team members versus being able to set up a team's group of names as you can do with Outlook."
"Right now, we don't have any monitoring."
"The price of licenses is high and should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is part of MS Office 365 and I would rate its pricing five out of ten. The tool's licensing costs are monthly."
"The solution is priced high."
"Microsoft Teams comes with a yearly subscription, which is not very expensive."
"The solution's pricing is average."
"Microsoft Teams' pricing is fine."
"There is a need to pay for the licensing... I know that the payments are made on a yearly basis...There are no extra costs in addition to the standard licensing."
"If you have content that requires more security and you want to use it in a more secure manner, with more protection, then it will come at a higher cost."
"The standalone license is not cheap."
