Teams are made up of channels, which are conversation boards between teammates
All team members can view and add to different conversations in the General channel and can use an @ function to invite other members to different conversations, not unlike Slack.
The basic chat function is commonly found within most collaboration apps and can take place between teams, groups, and individuals.
Every team who uses Microsoft Teams will have a site in SharePoint Online, which will contain a default document library folder. All files shared across all conversations will automatically save to this folder. Permissions and security options can also be customized for sensitive information.
Enjoy seamless and fast video calls to employees within your business or clients outside your business. A good video call feature is great to have on a collaboration platform. One can also enjoy simple and fast desktop sharing for technical assistance and multi-user real-time collaboration.
This feature can help enhance your communications, company-wide meetings, and even training with an online meetings function that can host up to 10,000 users. Online meetings can include anyone outside or inside a business. This feature also includes a scheduling aid, a note-taking app, file uploading, and in-meeting chat messaging and a whiteboard.
Teams will allow you to download the report after meetings within the Meeting Chat along with new data that allows you to better manage and analyse your attendance.
This is a feature you won’t find in many collaboration platforms. With audio conferencing, anyone can join an online meeting via phone. With a dial-in number that spans hundreds of cities, even users that are on the go can participate with no internet required. (Note this feature requires additional licensing.)
