For different projects in a big organization different teams can be formed and thus their internal tasks assignments can be done there. It is easy to manage, assign tasks to people in a particular project. People or team leads in multiple projects can share different channels thus maintaining different projects. Users should be refrained of creating new teams just for fun purpose etc. to avoid to much chaos.

  • I feel like the Shifts app could be more advanced to sync with Microsoft Outlook. It would be great to receive notifications in Outlook for Shifts and be able to approve/deny requests and schedule changes there while it's synced with the Outlook calendar.
  • It would be nice if the interface allowed further customization such as assigning colors to the separate channels. Some channels within team sites are rather lengthy and it would be great to group them into color groups.
  • Another nice feature would be the option to log in as one of your teammates so you can properly set up their Team account before they log in for the first time.

As I mentioned before, we switched to Teams from Skype because it was more reliable. We did not experience interruptions in service especially for those departments working remote.

  • A centralized platform for the Operation Manager to handle and see the progress of different projects
  • This makes it easy to handle everyone at one place thus reducing time in contacting individuals and taking the feedback on progress
  • Knowing of any hurdles or bottlenecks in any project by just clicking on any channel and seeing their discussion. Thus guiding them then and there only.
