Microsoft Teams Reviews

From that collaborative view, I'm a big user of Teams, mainly because of business. I use Teams a lot for meetings and collaboration, both internally and externally. I think it works pretty well.

I have integrated it with my Jira infrastructure, so I'm able to make phone calls directly from my Teams application to literally the entire globe.

have a third-party call center vendor that I've already integrated with Teams, so I can switch between different profiles. So at the moment, I'm okay. I haven't run into anything that I would need to change.

For Teams, it's purely because of collaboration. Nothing more, nothing less. It's a good tool for communication. All my meetings, most of my presentations... I like the whiteboard feature as well. I'm able to scribble some stuff if I need to explain a couple of items. 

Teams has been a pretty cool tool for me and my organization, and for making communication easier.

The chat functionality is pretty decent. I have history; I can always scroll back and see if I need to, and the search functionality makes it easy for me to navigate across Teams platform. 

If I have to share any document, I can easily find it there. Also, creating specific groups for specific people so that we can communicate easily about data and information is pretty decent as well.

I would like the initial setup process to be more user-friendly.

I have been using it for five years now. We have E3 suite.

I would rate the stability a five out of ten. We had some upstream outages which impacted collaboration. 

The only issue is that it's not local; it's not in-country. Whenever there are upstream issues, we get impacted.

I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten. It's awesome and can integrate with a couple of things as well, which is brilliant.

In my local region, we have about 500 end users in total. My organization is much smaller. I have a customer with almost a thousand users, and it works brilliantly. I attended an online meeting with the organization, and it went perfectly. 

The only disruption was due to local internet capacity, but from Teams functionality standpoint, it worked brilliantly. We were able to have a town hall across eight countries, which worked brilliantly.

We had Skype before. I think it was more business-driven.

The business decided to migrate. We had on-premises Exchange and cloud, and we adopted the features in Microsoft 365.

I would rate my experience with the initial setup an eight out of ten, with ten being easy. Microsoft can make it even more user-friendly in the future.

Maintenance requires zero effort. The only reason I would look at Qualys and, eventually, Orca is for deep security. I wanted to look at it from either Orca integration or a Microsoft Sentinel integration to get a view of the tenant and its security posture.

I didn't deploy it. I had a third party do it on my behalf.

I would rate the pricing as a ten out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is very expensive. They need to work on their pricing. I hear they want to decouple Teams from some of the packages, but I don't know how true that is.

But I would like the prices to be lower.

Overall, I would rate it a ten out of ten; it's awesome. It's a good platform.

I would recommend it to others. Go for it, if it meets your specific use case. Look at the size of the organization, look at the value of what you are working on. If you want standardized resources globally, then I think this is the way to go, and Microsoft is the way to go.

Our primary use case for Microsoft Teams is chat and meetings. We also utilize Teams to access files through SharePoint and OneDrive, form Teams groups, and conduct meetings. Our environment includes an on-premises deployment and approximately 250 users, with most using it daily and a small number using it weekly.

The platform has facilitated our communication and collaboration, especially in a remote or hybrid work environment. It has streamlined our access to shared files and improved our ability to conduct meetings and collaborate on projects.

We particularly value the platform's integration with SharePoint and OneDrive for file access, chat, and meeting functionalities. These features enhance our ability to collaborate efficiently and maintain seamless team communication.

They could enhance the product's stability and integration features.

We have been using Microsoft Teams for more than one year.

I rate the platform's stability as a seven out of ten. We have encountered issues such as repairing Outlook profiles and reinstalling Office for some users.

Microsoft Teams' scalability is seven out of ten.

We previously used Skype for meetings and video calls. We switched to Microsoft Teams for enhanced collaboration capabilities and better integration with other Microsoft products.

The initial setup process was easy and took a few days to complete.

We took the help of our internal team for the implementation.

The product is expensive.

Before implementing Microsoft Teams, organizations should ensure they have a clear understanding of their use case and the integration capabilities required. Proper planning and deployment can significantly enhance the overall experience.

I rate it an eight out of ten. 

Microsoft Teams is a tool I think everybody is using today. It is used for the team's day-to-day operations.

The product's performance has certain shortcomings that require improvement. We work remotely, and each team member occasionally has problems with not having sufficient network speed, even if we have sufficient network speed. The tool is pretty sensitive, and it wants to have a very fast network connection. When network speed is still okay but not sufficient for Microsoft Teams, then you start losing out on video quality, and then the video keeps hanging. You have to switch off the video and continue only with audio. In Microsoft Teams, even audio lags at times. For example, in a typical situation, when you try to have a conversation from the train, you won't have the best internet connection, but you can still watch some movies on YouTube, which means it should be sufficient, but for Microsoft Teams, it is not good. If it would be possible to somehow optimize network traffic, then it would be good.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for around five years.

I have not seen many technical issues with the product.

The solution's scalability works well.

I have not used any technical support for the solution.

Currently, in my company, we work with OpenShift.The plan is to move to some cloud infrastructure, and that is why I wanted to compare it with AWS, Azure, and Oracle's cloud services.

We used Skype's business edition for all messages, and then we switched to Microsoft Teams for all kinds of messages, conversations, and video conferences. It is used for all ranges of communication.

Microsoft Teams is more handy than Skype's business edition. We are all used to it, so it is a better option for us.

For development, it does not have much influence. Microsoft Teams, I would say, is for communication purposes, not for development. Yeah. Microsoft used to joke that Teams is for development.

Microsoft Teams offers a standard integration with Outlook, so there is nothing special.

Considering that Skype also offers integration capabilities to users, such functionalities are not new to Microsoft Teams. The integrations associated with Microsoft Teams work well, and they are helpful in areas like meetings and other scheduling work.

I don't use AI in Microsoft Teams. I don't need AI to talk to colleagues.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

The tool is available on cell phones. It can be used in calls and meetings. 

The solution needs to improve the cell phone version. I also have issues in copying the links in the conversation. 

I have been using the product for three to four years. 

Microsoft Teams' stability is good. I rate it an eight out of ten. 

The solution is scalable. Our team is spread across the globe, and our company has more than 5,000 users in Mexico. 

I haven't contacted Microsoft support. I seek support from my IT team.

We set up Microsoft Teams in a couple of days. 

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten. 

Our primary use case for Microsoft Teams is facilitating collaboration among internal company teams and external users. Teams integrate seamlessly with other Microsoft 365 products, such as Outlook for calendar management and Cobweb for additional functionalities.

Teams have significantly improved communication within our organization by providing a simple platform. As part of the Microsoft Office suite, it facilitates the transition of some users to Azure Active Directory, streamlining access and permissions across our organization.

The most valuable feature of Microsoft Teams for us is the ability to share files from OneDrive seamlessly. This integration with the cloud and simplicity of usage prove beneficial.

One area where the product could be improved is its operational memory utilization. Currently, Microsoft Teams consumes a significant amount of memory when in use, which can pose challenges for users with limited memory resources on their computers.

We have been using Microsoft Teams for 3 years.

Sometimes, the platform automatically closes during working hours. This particular area needs improvement. I rate the stability as seven out of ten.

We have 500 Microsoft Teams users in our organization. It is a scalable product. I rate the scalability an eight.

The initial setup is easy. It takes a month to complete. I rate the process a nine out of ten.

For setup costs, pricing, and licensing, I advise considering the flexibility offered by site licenses. However, it's important to be aware of potential fluctuations in pricing, as they can vary depending on factors like stability in the economic environment and national payment regulations. In our experience, pricing may differ from country to country, with some regions offering more favorable rates due to local payment arrangements. As for specific licensing options, we utilize various types, including the one-license and five-license options. The one-license option costs approximately $10 per user per month, while the five-license option averages around $35.

We have integrated Teams as a communication channel for alert synchronization from your monitoring system, Grafana, and other tools.

We regularly use video meetings for various purposes, including IT meetings and client discussions, and find the quality excellent. We have not encountered any significant technical issues with video conferencing itself. However, there have been occasional issues related to second-factor authentication, where users may experience delays or difficulties accessing calls or messages. These issues typically require closing and reopening the program.

I recommend this product for small organizations because it offers an all-in-one solution. I rate it an eight out of ten.

My company provides Teams for us. We just use it for internal communication.

All of the solution's features are useful since we use it for saving data, chatting, meeting, and all such purposes.

Video calling is already there, so that's not an issue. The only thing that can be improved is that when you are talking one on one, there is no recording facility. Maybe it's the company that stopped it. If it's a group chat, then we can record the session, but we cannot record a one on one session. In short, we are not able to record one on one calls.

I have experience with Microsoft Teams. 

It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

My company has more than 10,000 employees, and all are using Microsoft Teams. Most of the users are engineers.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven to eight out of ten.

My company plans to increase the usage of Microsoft Teams in the future.

I never faced any challenges with the solution in the last two and half years.

I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.

Positive

I have previously used Yammer, WhatsApp, and Twitter for internal communication. Also, we still use Yammer for its capabilities. It's not too official. It's official to the extent of sharing your ideas, like LinkedIn, which you have for the outside world, but the ones I mentioned earlier are for the inside world, so you can choose to broadcast something you want.

The solution is deployed on a private cloud.

I recommend the solution to those planning to use it.

It is very easy to use. A lot of features are there in the solution, which will be useful for daily communication with the team members who are located in other cities. It is pretty user-friendly.

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

We use the software for corporate-level communication such as messaging and texting. 

I like the product's screen share feature since we can explain things to the users at the other end using it. The solution helps me to establish a virtual connection with my team. 

The product should improve its security aspect, scalability, stability, and screen recording. It would be nice if Teams could come up with a feature where I can write chats and send them as mail. It would be also good if Teams could be connected to our application software so that for any doubts that can occur during the training, the operator can resolve them through chats. Hence, they can easily guide and close the issue. 

I have been using the product since 2021. 

I would rate the tool's stability a seven out of ten. 

I would rate the product's scalability a seven out of ten. My company has 250 users for the solution. We use the solution 24/7 for daily meetings. 

The solution's technical support is very good. 

Positive

I would rate the solution's setup a nine out of ten since it is easy to sign up. The product's deployment took a month to complete. For the solution's installation, you need to validate. We used a team of 15 members to deploy the product. The solution does not require any maintenance. 

We did the product's deployment in-house. 

The product is worth its money. 

The tool's price is high and I would rate it an eight out of ten. 

I would rate the product a nine out of ten. 

I used Microsoft Teams for virtual meetings, primarily as a basic user, not as an infrastructure provider.

The valuable features of Microsoft Teams include the ability to meet people online, exchange files, and share screens. All the functions I needed were supported very well, making the product very effective. It integrates well with documents stored in Microsoft's repository.

Improvements could be made in utilizing AI features, such as getting a transcript of meetings. During my usage, there were no AI features available.

I have used Microsoft Teams as a user but not within my network business in the last year. The usage was for meetings involving a partner's team, not my own.

Microsoft Teams is a stable product. It works fine with no problems during meetings. We also recorded all the meetings without any issues.

I am sure Microsoft Teams is scalable, however, in my experience, I have not conducted meetings with more than eight participants.

I have used both Microsoft Teams and Zoom. For my usage, both platforms were identical in functionality, providing features such as sharing screens, doing chats, and reviewing documents.

The initial setup of Microsoft Teams was easy. It involved downloading the necessary software for the client side, and it ran smoothly.

I would recommend Microsoft Teams to other people, especially if they are a company using a lot of these features. Microsoft Teams integrates well with Microsoft documents. Overall, I would rate it a nine out of ten.
