A scalable solution that can be used to discuss confidential matters among organizations
Pros and Cons
  • "What I use the most is the plugin or the optimization feature."
  • "Microsoft Teams should include the possibility of creating questionnaires or polls during webinars, whereby the people watching can answer the questionnaires in real time."

What is our primary use case?

I used Microsoft Teams for work, and I like the usability of the solution here in Brazil. A lot of my colleagues always complain about Microsoft Teams, saying that the solution wastes a lot of machine capability, but I don't have a problem with that. Microsoft Teams works just fine with Outlook, and I have no problem using the solution. I like how sharing the screen or specific windows with Microsoft Teams is easy. I have no problem with the stability of the solution.

How has it helped my organization?

We have an open team; other organizations can find and talk to us on Microsoft Teams. We don't have to talk about work using other solutions like WhatsApp. We choose WhatsApp because it's easier for us. However, when I want to speak about something more confidential, I do it on Microsoft Teams. Whenever I talk to a partner, we talk on Microsoft Teams, as our platforms are open to each other. I utilize Microsoft Teams to discuss confidential matters.

What is most valuable?

What I use the most is the plugin or the optimization feature. When I want to create a meeting on Outlook, I can automatically share the Microsoft Teams link.

What needs improvement?

Microsoft Teams should include the possibility of creating questionnaires or polls during webinars, whereby the people watching can answer the questionnaires in real time.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft Teams for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

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

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate Microsoft Teams ten out of ten for scalability.

The solution’s initial setup is straightforward.

What other advice do I have?

I am using the latest version of Microsoft Teams.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Teams an eight out of ten.
