Microsoft Teams Reviews

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.

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 solution for online meetings.

The solution is already integrated with Office 365. We do not have to buy a different license or new version for it. We get version updates automatically. 

The solution's most valuable feature is its integration with Office 365. It has the best features for automation, Excel, and PowerPoint.

In the case of integrating the solution with other applications, we need technical support for configuration. To make the process easier, they should add an integration API. It will help us save additional costs.

We have been using the solution as a customer since 2020.

I rate the solution's stability a nine out of ten.

The solution is highly scalable. I rate it a nine out of ten. We have 1000 users in our organization, and we use it to its maximum potential.

The solution's technical support is great. Their team is helpful.

Positive

The solution's initial setup is easy. I rate its process a nine out of ten. It requires two technical support executives for maintenance.

The solution helps us save a lot of time. Although, it requires high investment in terms of money.

The solution's cost is high. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten. It requires a fixed price to be paid annually or monthly.

The solution is easier to find anywhere compared to open-source platforms. I rate it a nine out of ten.

I use it for meeting prospects, current calls, and also for some apps like workflow and notes. It has been quite useful, and I find the tools and functionalities great.

Team sharing is really cool. It's great to have remote access, document sharing, and collaboration during calls and meetings. These features are excellent, and I haven't found them in other tools.

In future releases, short voice messages would be useful. Sometimes, when people are in other meetings, it would be great to leave a voice message if they're not reachable.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for the past four years. We use the latest version because it generally gets updated through backend policies.

It is a stable solution. I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. 

There are around 500 to 600 users in my organization using this solution. 

The setup is usually done by the IT people in the organization. As an end user, we just start using the features and the product.

My advice is that Microsoft Teams is not just a tool for meetings. It offers additional features and add-on apps like WebBooks, Azure, task planner, and more. Updates are regularly provided, and you can even use Excel tools on the go.

Overall, I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. If a tool provides everything I need without any issues, then it deserves the highest score. That's why I'm giving it a nine.

I have used Google Meet, Skype (the older version), and WebEx for meetings and webinars. But Microsoft Teams is quite advanced and has a lot of features.

If I compare it with Google Meet, Google Meet doesn't offer remote sessions. That is the main disadvantage compared to Google Meet.

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I use the solution to chat with my team. 

I would like to see more customization options in the product such as more integration with other tools. 

I have been using the product for five years. 

I would rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten.

I haven't contacted technical support yet. 

Neutral

I would rate the solution's setup a seven out of ten and we have deployed it on the cloud. 

I would rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. 

I would rate the product a seven out of ten. It is a good tool and I don't have any problem with Teams. 

We use Microsoft Teams for virtual meetings and video communication.

Microsoft Teams is an easy-to-use solution. We can use the solution for chats and viewing chat history.

I would like to get more frequent updates, and the solution’s stability could be improved.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for two years.

I rate Microsoft Teams an eight out of ten for stability because sometimes we experience call drops. Since the bandwidth required for Microsoft Teams is huge, there can be issues of lag between video and audio.

The solution's scalability is good because there is no limitation on the number of people who can join the call simultaneously. I rate Microsoft Teams ten out of ten for scalability. Around 1,000 users are using Microsoft Teams in our organization.

It is easy to set up Microsoft Teams. The solution took around 15 to 20 minutes to deploy.

The solution's deployment can be done in-house. My organization had subscribed to Microsoft Teams, and I logged in with my organization's credentials.

I use the latest version of Microsoft Teams. The solution is deployment on-cloud in our organization. I would recommend Microsoft Teams to other users.

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

In the organization where I work, Microsoft Teams is used as a collaboration tool, and it's our company-wide policy to use Microsoft Teams as the integrated tool for all communications and collaborating documents.

I like that Microsoft Teams has all the team management features in one place. You can use Microsoft Teams to chat with people, share your documents, manage your calendar, manage your project, and assign tasks. The solution also has multiple small tools available. All in all, it's one place where you can have everything in a single window.

There are a lot of creative people out there who can put some more UI capabilities in Microsoft Teams.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for almost three years.

I’ve never faced any issues with the solution’s stability.

Microsoft Teams is a scalable solution. Our company is big, and I've never felt any glitches or hanging issues with the solution. Around 2,00,000 users are using the solution in our organization.

I've previously used Atlassian Jira. If you are looking for a hard-core project wherein you can get a complete timesheet and better project manageability, Jira is a better tool. However, Microsoft Teams is the better option if you are looking for chatting, collaborating, and sharing features. Jira does not have chatting capability in it.

The solution's initial setup wasn't much complex, but it was pretty straightforward.

Generally, it is the backend team that does the deployment. As end users, we are there to create our folders and channels. We can manage our individual projects by ourselves. However, from the server level, a dedicated company team works on the solution's deployment.

Microsoft Teams is a very popular platform by Microsoft that is very commonly used in all organizations.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Teams a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft Teams for messaging, group chats, and video calls.

You can coordinate meetings more rapidly with Microsoft Teams. You can use the solution to get a group of people together quicker.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Teams are video conferencing, chat function, and the one that shows you that you've got new messages.

Microsoft Teams withdrew the Wiki function, which was quite a good and useful feature. The solution has withdrawn the Wiki function in favor of SharePoint.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for two years.

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

Microsoft Teams is a completely scalable solution. Every employee in my organization uses the solution, and I use the solution every day.

I rate Microsoft Teams a ten out of ten for scalability.

Microsoft Teams is deployed on-cloud in our organization. My advice to someone considering Microsoft Teams for their company would be to check it out against their use case requirements.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Teams a six to seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Teams for normal SharePoint activity. We have offices in the US and some in India, and we do our regular team meetings on Microsoft Teams.

All basic features of Microsoft Teams are good enough. The solution has features like good voice clarity, good video quality, and recording. We can set up the Microsoft Team's settings within seconds, and connectivity is also good. We can connect with anybody, including our customers.

Microsoft Teams has a limitation on the number of people, which could be increased. The voice quality sometimes is not good, but it could be because of internet issues.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for about a year or so.

It could be because of internet issues, but the screen often freezes off. We have Microsoft Teams meetings at least thrice a week. Throughout some 10 to 20 meetings, the screen freezes off one or two times. Subsequently, leaving the meeting and coming back takes time.

I rate Microsoft Teams between eight and nine out of ten for stability.

The solution's scalability is good enough for us. We have never faced any issues with the solution's scalability. We use Microsoft Teams about three to four times a week. We use it every alternate day for about half an hour, two hours, or one and a half hours. We have never faced any issues, and even if it's a continuous three hours meeting, there's no stoppage in the service. Currently, 15 users are using Microsoft Teams in our organization, and we may scale up to about 30 to 35 users after some time.

We use SharePoint from Microsoft. Earlier, we used to use Google Meet. Although Google Meet was free, it had a time limit of 45 minutes. We used to use another product from an Indian-based company with its own data center. It is a free VC software, but we stopped using it because of some teething issues.

The solution's initial setup is quite okay and very user-friendly.

We are IT and system integrators ourselves. Although we're a small company, our organization has a technical team who does the deployment. We didn't have to take any assistance from outside.

My technical team remotely deployed Microsoft Teams. From a user perspective, if I had to connect or have a Microsoft Teams meeting with any of my vendors, customers, or internally, I know how to do it, and it's quite simple.

Microsoft Teams is expensive compared to other solutions. We bought the entire suite of products, including Office, Outlook, and Teams.

Microsoft Teams is deployed on-cloud in our organization. Microsoft Teams is an expensive product. Since we are a micro and small mid sized company, we have to pay more cost. Big banks and big enterprise customers pay half the price of what we pay because their number of users is more. If the company is very big, the solution's cost reduces substantially.

Microsoft Teams is a very standard platform. Many of our customers are using Microsoft. Google is also quite good, and Google is much easier to use and user-friendly than Microsoft Teams.

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

Microsoft Teams provides everything that users need, including the cameras and attachments. With the help of Teams, you can manage your data transfer into the environment.

Almost 70% of the world currently uses Microsoft Teams because it is easy to use.

I would like to get less frequent updates from the solution.

I have been using Microsoft Teams for many years.

I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.

Around 3,50,000 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability eight and a half out of ten.

Microsoft Teams is a better video conferencing tool than Skype.

Microsoft Teams has good features that users require. We can connect with Microsoft Teams from anywhere in the world. Even if you don't have a phone, you can connect with Microsoft Teams. You only require an internet connection.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I primarily use Microsoft Teams as a communication tool for online meetings. Over the past year and a half, I’ve started using it more extensively to access other parts of my information system, such as OneDrive and Calendar. I also use it to invite people to meetings and manage various functions from the menu.

For me, Microsoft Teams' most valuable features are online meetings, calls, and chat. While I also use it to access OneDrive and my calendar, the core functions I rely on are meetings and calls.

One challenge I've encountered with the tool is that it's not as intuitive as it could be. For example, when making invitations or initiating calls, it often takes two or three clicks to get started, which feels less efficient compared to other tools like Zoom. The interface seems to have too much functionality packed into one environment. 

I’d recommend adding shortcuts for frequently used activities to improve it. For example, having quick access to OneDrive or creating fast calls to contacts could save time.

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

I rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten. It is possible to add different teams. 

I contact my internal support and have no experience with the solution's direct support.

I’ve used Zoom regularly, primarily for online meetings and direct calls. I find Zoom to be more intuitive and user-friendly than Microsoft Teams. 

If you’re considering using Microsoft Teams, my advice would be this: If you only need basic functions for online meetings and nothing more for personal use, I would recommend sticking with Zoom’s free version. However, for corporate use or if you already use Microsoft 365 or other Microsoft tools, Microsoft Teams is a better choice due to its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem. Other options like Google Meet or Zoom might be more suitable for those not connected to Microsoft tools.

I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.
