Microsoft Teams Reviews

We use the product for meetings and trainings. 

The solution is perfect and works pretty well. It gets your streaming and helps to get your calls. I like it a lot. 

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.

I have been working with the product for a year and a half. 

Teams is better and more polished than Zoom. 

The product's installation is easy and took only a few minutes to complete. 

I did the solution's installation by myself. 

The product's pro accounts are cheap. 

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. 

We use the solution for recording meetings and preparing education for our YouTube channel.

It's a very flexible program.

We can do screen sharing very easily.

It's good for recording sessions. 

Sometimes, I can't see if a person came into the meeting; however, when I go and look at the session at the end, I can see who has come and gone from the meeting.

The transcription feature is great. I can copy it and create a document out of it. 

It's quite stable and issue-free.

The solution can scale. 

The room feature could be better. I like the visibility we get when we use Zoom, for example. I'd like the rooms to be set up more like that. I'd like more room management features. 

I'd like Microsoft to start adding more AI functionality into Teams.

I use Teams all of the time for work. I've used it for about two years at this point.

I've never had any issues with stability. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash.

The solution scales well. It's easy to implement new users.

We all use Teams in my company. We have about 80 people using it. 

I've never had any issues with the product. I've never had to reach out to technical support.

I have used Zoom in the past for virtual meetings. I only use it occasionally. I have noted some stability issues with it that I haven't noted in Teams. I don't have a license for Zoom. I haven't seen the backend administration features.

I did not handle the setup process. It was automatically deployed to my laptop. 

We do not have to do any maintenance tasks. However, we do have an administrator. He may have maintenance tasks. 

We have an Office 365 license which includes Teams in the product. I'm not sure of the exact cost of the solution. 

I'm an end-user.

I'm not sure which version we're using. 

We save our meetings in the cloud when we use the solution. 

I would recommend the solution to others. I know that Microsoft has begun to add AI to its products. However, this hasn't happened in Teams just yet. Once they start adding AI, it will become even better - and it's already very good.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

For all the meetings and events we are using Microsoft Teams.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Teams are the ease of use. It is very good for a small virtual office for meetings and calendars which sync well together.

Microsoft Teams could improve because it is heavy on bandwidth. We have some access points and when we have 30 or 40 users on it with Microsoft Teams calls can drop. WebEx does not use as much bandwidth.

When someone joins a meeting we are not able to kick them out.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for approximately three years.

Microsoft Teams is stable.

The scalability of Microsoft Teams is good and is easy to do.

We have approximately 450 - 500 users using the solution.

I have used Skype for Business and WebEx.

The initial setup of Microsoft Teams is straightforward.

We have a license needed to use Microsoft Teams.

I would advise others to set the parameters correctly for security. You can transfer files between users in the chat window which is helpful.

I rate Microsoft Teams a nine out of ten.

I primarily use live chat. The chat is used mostly to communicate with all departments in my company.

There is a good option for you to make group chats. Communication is really easy to handle. It’s easy to make groups and intimate chats when you need to.

It is a stable product.

The initial setup is easy.

It's a really good application, a good program. However, maybe the whole UI could change a bit in the future. After a while, it gets to be too much of the same in the eye of the customer. Maybe they need a column, or maybe a background, or something like that to mix things up.

They need to improve the scalability of Teams.

I’ve been using the solution for six months.

Stability is not a problem. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn’t crash or freeze. It’s reliable, and the performance is good.

The solution can scale. However, it could be better.

We have about 200 people using the solution right now at our organization.

I’ve never had to reach out to support as I’ve never had any issues. It works well. I can’t say how the technical support is, however.

The initial implementation was actually not made by me. However, I saw the process and it's pretty straightforward. There was nothing that I saw that would lead me to believe it would be complex.

I’m not sure about the pricing. I’m not sure if we have to pay anything.

I am a customer and an end-user.

I’m not sure which version of the solution I’m using right now.

I’d invite potential new users to use it or try it out. You can have access it from any device, and it’s great if you want to access data or information.

I would rate the solution nine out of ten. It’s great. However, the UI could be better, which is why I didn’t give it perfect marks.

I use Teams for meetings, chats, and outgoing calls.

Teams' most valuable feature is the ability to choose from multiple numbers to show when calling.

Teams doesn't always sync to show as Do Not Disturb during Outlook meetings. In the next release, it would be useful to see other users' availability.

I've been using Teams for a year and a half.

Teams is stable, though there are very occasional problems with flashing when screen sharing.

We previously used Skype, but Teams is more user-friendly and syncs with Outlook.

The initial setup was challenging because Teams was a new platform for us, but it was that hard, and the training provided helped us understand better. Deployment took three months.

Teams is really user-friendly and not that complex. I would give it a rating of nine out of ten.

We use this solution for video conferencing.

I don't like it very much, but I have to use it because it's the standard in the organization for communication. It could be improved if it was easier to use and the interface was revamped. 

We have been using this solution for two years. 

This is a reliable and stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. It integrates with a lot of Microsoft software.

The initial setup was complex. I have the impression that Microsoft software is complex to implement because of the many configurations and parameters that they use.

We used an integrator to complete the installation. 

I would say that it's important to train all the people that are going to use it, because it's not very easy to use. 

I would this rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

I'm using Microsoft Teams for meetings, training, work, file sharing, and its other features. Working and consulting for Microsoft Teams are my principal roles. The app is my best friend.

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. I also like that I can be updated and I can understand the status of work or the status of a task.

What I'd like to improve in Microsoft Teams are the calendar management and task management tools, because they're not easy to use. They're not user-friendly. For calendar management, I prefer to use Outlook, for example, I send a calendar or update a meeting through Outlook rather than Microsoft Teams.

An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Microsoft Teams is the ability to monitor my working activity, particularly to understand how many hours I spend every day on each task or work I do, for example: on PowerPoint or Excel. I would like a personal dashboard that I can consult to understand where I spent my time during my work journey.

I've been using Microsoft Teams since 2019, so it's three years of usage.

Microsoft Teams is a very stable app. I didn't notice any issue or problem with it, even in the past year, so it's stable for me. I use it every day.

Microsoft Teams is a scalable app.

I don't use Microsoft Teams support because when I have a problem with the app, I just contact the IT department. We have internal support for the app in the company.

I used Skype for Business before switching to Microsoft Teams. I switched because there are several differences between the two apps. The main difference is that Skype for Business doesn't allow file sharing between users, and doesn't allow users to work on the same file, versus Microsoft Teams which is optimized for file sharing and work collaboration. Another difference is that Microsoft Teams is more user-friendly than Skype for Business. For example, if I search for a contact on my contact list, it's simpler to do compared to searching for a contact on Skype for Business. Microsoft Teams also saves conversations on the chat panel, while Skype for Business archives the conversation on my email, creating spam in my mailbox. These are all the reasons I prefer Microsoft Teams over Skype for Business.

I evaluated Skype for Business, Google Meet, and Zoom.

For virtual meetings, I use Microsoft Teams and Skype for Business. I also use Google Meet and Zoom. I used Skype for Business for one year in 2019, but after 2019, I started using Microsoft Teams, and I'm still using it.

My rating for Microsoft Teams is eight out of ten.

I am a freelancer. The decision on what solution to use is determined by my customers. Some of my customers have over 5,000 employees who are using Teams.

Teams is a virtual meeting solution. We use Teams to work with our clients purely with video conferences.

This is a stable solution, I have not faced any problems using the video conferencing.

As an app installed, Microsoft Teams is resource-consuming. When using it from their browser-based application, I experienced login problems.

For future releases, I would like to see Microsoft Teams make a lighter application and drop some features.

Microsoft Teams has all the features it needs, however, I noticed on some laptops that the features are not available. For example, if you want to change your virtual background, not all laptops have the hardware configured to link with that feature. The solution should make all features available irrespective of hardware configuration.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for two years.

This is a stable solution, I have not faced any problems using the video conferencing.

Microsoft is always scalable, it depends on the level of licensing an organization has purchased.

The initial setup of Microsoft Teams is easy. I would rate setup a 5 out of 5 as the solution is straightforward.

I have had concerns with login and resource consumption using Microsoft Teams, I would consider Zoom or Cisco WebEx as better solutions.

Organizations should consider what features they want to utilize. If they want all features to be available, they need to have an enterprise category system. Logging in from a home segment device will not have all features available. 

I would rate the solution an 8 out of 10.

We use Microsoft Teams for meetings and other operations, such as raising hands, sharing screens, and sending chat messages.

Ms Teams has improved our efficiency. Travelling to and from physical meetings takes time due to traffic situations. Besides it improves physical safety because we spend less time on the road.

The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is the ability to create Google calendar invites. When I click on that option to create an invite, it will go straight to Google in my web browser, and will creates the meeting placeholder. I'm then able to share it with other people by entering their email addresses in the provisioned location. I've not seen that option in Zoom. Additionally, the solution has high performance, and the video and quality of the calls are good. It has all the features that I need.

If the Ms Teams process is closed, the next time a user attempts to open Teams, it takes a while to load. I'm not 100% certain whether system resources have anything to do with this, but in my experience, when the Ms Teams process is already running, Ms Teams loads quicker. On the other hand, Zoom (and even Google Meet) tend to have a faster loading time.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for approximately three years.

Microsoft Teams is a stable solution.

I have found Microsoft Teams to be scalable for what I have used it for. I have not tested the solution for more than 10 users at one time.

We have approximately four people using this solution in my organization. We use the solutions approximately every two weeks.

I have never needed to contact the Microsoft Teams Technical Support channel. I have not had any problems with the application.

Positive

I have previously used other solutions, such as Zoom. 

Zoom is a more lightweight solution and is easier to use than Microsoft Teams.

The setup of Microsoft Teams is easy for a technical person like me. But a regular user may have a slight challenge with the process of activating an account on Ms Teams.

The multifactor authentication of Ms Teams can prove to be a challenge for a non-technical person.

I rate the setup of Microsoft Teams a three out of five.

We install Teams in-house.

We are using the free version of the solutions. Zoom gives a time-limit of 40 minutes for more than two attendees and automatically ends the meeting. You'd need to connect back to be able to resume/continue the meeting. The free version of Ms Teams does not seem to have a time limit. At the time I was doing this review, I was on a Teams meeting that had gone beyond 3 hrs 30 mins and it was still going on.

I rate Microsoft Teams an eight out of ten.

We use Microsoft Teams for training and meetings.

The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams is that it is easy to use.

Microsoft Teams could improve the integration with Outlook because most of us are not using the last version of Outlook and it causes some issues.

In the next release of Microsoft Teams, they should make the mobile application easier to manage. Additionally, they should add more features.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for approximately two years.

Microsoft Teams is a stable solution. However, we have to turn it off and reconnect sometimes.

Microsoft Teams is a scalable solution. We have more than 600 users using this solution, from all levels in my organization. We have no problem with all our users using this solution.

I have not contacted the support from Microsoft. We have our own internal support.

We previously used other solutions, such as Bridge and an internal application. Microsoft Teams is the easiest to use.

The implementation of Microsoft Teams is easy on the laptop but sometimes we are facing some difficulties with the phone.

I rate the initial setup of Microsoft Teams a three out of five.

Microsoft Teams is priced less than other solutions, such as Bridge.

I rate the price of Microsoft Teams a four out of five.

I rate Microsoft Teams a seven out of ten.
