Microsoft should make available some option with the product to cut a part of a meeting video at a specific time instead of using the entire video.

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?

Microsoft Teams is installed on-cloud in our organization.
Microsoft Teams is a good solution. It is a good solution for someone with a basic need and not a very high-end need for HD video.
