Estimating
Comparison of Estimating features of Product A and Product B
While it is a great application, with most of its functions working well and integrating with many Microsoft apps, it can be challenging if the people you need to contact are not part of the Microsoft environment. It takes a lot of convincing and friction at some point. Nevertheless, it works perfectly for internal communications.
RedTeam does a good job of allowing the company to view information in a way that is helpful to them. The superintendents out in the field don't necessarily need to see all of the same information that the people in the office do, so field share has been great for helping them manage their projects and submit daily reports of job progress. I can see this program working for both small and large companies and with a few tweaks, I might rate it even higher.
The calendar on Teams doesn't always "talk" to the calendar in Outlook. You'd think they'd be mapped to each other but I consistently run into issues where they don't sync.
Teams video calls consistently have issues with host permissions. I've listed co-hosts ahead of time, and we still run into issues with other people downloading attendance or pulling Poll data or recordings.
Teams had a good idea of pre-scheduling messages in the chat, but that feature is buggy and I'm often unable to check if the message was pre-scheduled -- the preview disappears and then will fire off anyways which makes it difficult to prepare for meetings or edit items.
it's not possible to pre-schedule Polls. We use the poll feature to collect CSAT scores, and the facilitator currently has to remember to manually click the button --there's no way to schedule out the poll to automatically be sent out.
Breakout functionality is incredibly clunky
Their group/channel functionality is clunky and hard to use
Microsoft Teams is included with our Office 365 subscription and we have no intention of migrating off of Office 365 and Microsoft products. Since Microsoft Teams is included for free with our Office 365 subscription, and since we enjoy all the features, benefits, and functionality, there is no question that our team will continue to use the product
I personally have not come across a comparable platform that does what Microsoft Teams does and I believe there are very few competitors that offer the integration and user-friendly features that Microsoft Teams provides. You don't need to have special training to successfully benefit from Microsoft Teams features. If you can text, you can Microsoft Teams chat. If you can make a phone call, you can make a Microsoft Teams call - I think that in itself grants the platform a 10/10 rating for me.
The overall support provided by Microsoft for Microsoft Teams has been quite good but there is still some room for improvements. Microsoft needs to proactively work on fixing the open bugs in order to provide a seamless experience to the users. But over the service and experience provided by the Microsoft team have been quite satisfactory.
We chose primarily because of the promised integration with the Microsoft Business Suite - which it mostly delivers on. That does give Teams an obvious advantage over competitors. IMHO Teams has a richer, more mature feature set, and the experience is more reliable and stable. Although like any of there there is room for imporvement.
Procore is [a] product that we [are] familiar with as well because a few other companies that we have partnered with use Procore. The program is a good CPM, but RedTeam stands out to our company for the customer service. Over the years we have been able to communicate opportunities to make something more efficient and they have implemented some of those suggestions. That is invaluable to us.
Honestly, this tool is worth every penny. Yes, it's not free and you pay for the quality of services and the license. But the ROI and the benefits are all there. Also, the renewal, negotiation, and contract terms are all very well explained by our Microsoft account manager, and she's a charm.
I used Skype for Business to take calls, hold conferences, and provide remote assistance to users. Microsoft Teams, on the other hand, is superior to Skype for Business in my opinion. My job entails a lot of screen sharing.
Microsoft Teams has helped an entire company become more efficient, which saves the company money and frees up time for workers to focus on other areas.
By having a secure place to store information used by multiple departments, not only is time saved searching for information but also ensuring that an entire organization has access to the same and accurate information, which prevents errors and confusion.
Using Microsoft Teams you can work remotely and still be able to effectively communicate with your coworkers and not miss any important notifications or information.
