MS Teams were able to address our connection with our colleagues who are not able to use our current platform since it is a competitor of the client they are supporting. Being in governance, I need to be able to reach everyone where ever they are located so this is the best option I have.

I use Microsoft Teams as my workplace communication tool in a large healthcare organization. I can communicate quickly and effectively with my supervisor and fellow colleagues about confidential customer data and know it is secure. It is easy to connect with colleagues working at branches in different Australian states. Professional development webinars, held live across multiple Australian states at regular times, are easily supported on this platform with over 30-40+ users watching a single stream at one time. Integrates well with Microsoft Outlook which is used concurrently at work.

We are using Microsoft Teams for Team collaboration. We are using this tool for meetings, team catch ups, remote happy hours etc. Microsoft team is most widely used collaboration software. It has different applications for project management as well. We can manage task boards to track the progress of tasks, we are also having regular training sessions on Teams. Everything is super easy to use. No special training is required to use it. It's connected to Microsoft 365 applications. It's not that costly as well. So it's suitable for all the companies or individual use cases.

We used Microsoft Teams to communicate internally and externally with staff and students. We love the ease of use despite the learning curve necessary to feel completely comfortable with the software. Students and staff alike have taken to using this platform for both asynchronous instruction and live video instruction. We would recommend this platform for anyone seeking these tools.

We are hybrid model. Each one of us can schedule meetings, calling and video conferencing each other at no cost to us. When we are in office, Microsoft Teams are instant messaging system. We use it to evaluate our project and high five to those who have done a great job. It makes us feel appreciated. What's more, we are a team and that feels good. It saves our time. We become more transparent to each other. We are staying connected more than ever.

Marvelously Terrific Microsoft Teams
All team members use Microsoft Teams for communication and collaboration, to set up meetings, to conduct presentations to store and share important documents, etc. We find the application meets all our requirements, as it's easy to use, convenient, it's simple to take on board new enhancements and our capabilities are increasing all the time. It's a Godsend, and we couldn't cope without it. Its seamless interaction with other Microsoft products helps too.

Teams meeting is frequently used for Product Demonstration and client knowledge sharing. We use it for the customer success team and Sales and Marketing efforts for one of our products. We also use it for hosting product based events and seminars and also by reaching out to off shore teams.

At my company, we use Teams primarily to instant message one another across the entire organization. If you need a quick answer it is preferable to email. We also use it however to store and share documents. It is also great at taking and organizing notes. It also has task board functionality.

In the chatbot. The messages were not aligned to all the viewers. Like whom is the 1st, 2nd and so on. Because there were times there's a game, on my view I was the 1st. But on others, I was not. I wish all the messages are same in all users/viewers.

We implemented Microsoft Teams a few years ago and starting adopting it as a replacement for Microsoft Skype for Business.
In the beginning adoption was slow and it was hard to get our staff and clients to move over.
However when the Covid Pandemic started we kept on sending out client/user comms about the features of Microsoft Teams.
We suddenly saw major adoption of Microsoft Teams and I can say this is one of the best collaboration and unified communication tools out there.
We use the Teams Channels for our Team collaboration and work. Sharing documents with users that need to work on it at the same time really works well. I have seen over 400 users work on a single document at the same time and we had no issues.
The Teams meetings work really well, Virtual Backgrounds are excellent, and is a major improvement compared to Skype for Business.
Finally, the multiple integration options with other apps, or the online web access functions are really great features. You are able to do everything in the Teams web app you can do in the desktop app.

I use the system for complete communication within the company and for dealing with external customers, it is also used to plan and manage my diary. Sales calls are made using teams as well as being used to run online training and workshops. I use the chat function to communicate none urgent information to my team.
We use Microsoft Teams for our day-to-day collaboration. All of my meetings are held using Teams. All my team members have been working from home since the pandemic and Teams is our lifesaver. It provides really cool interface with provisions for sharing files/tasks/calendars/whiteboards, etc. It has an Office 365 button that allows us to easily navigate/share mail/access SharePoint, etc.

Microsoft Teams has become essential for me
What don't we use Microsoft Teams for? Since it's implementation, our Team has turned it into the all-access hub for all of our communication. We break down teams based on projects and they use Teams channels to post ideas and share work. We also use Microsoft Teams for video calls and to record customer interviews. I personally use the calendar feature to help me stay up-to-date. We have integrations with some of our others services that feed into Microsoft Teams as well.

I use Microsoft Teams every day. I use it to quickly chat with coworkers or solve a problem. We send files through Teams and also use it to chat with a specific group of people. It helps eliminate the need for emails at times. We also use it for internal team calls. The product addresses the business problems such as: Remote employees, quick communication needs, problem-solving, large group questions, and one-on-one and group virtual meetings.
Microsoft Teams is a useful platform for company wide communication by chat, phone and conferencing. With phone licenses you can also use it as teleohony system. The video conferencing options can be used for internal and also external meeting. With screen and application sharing, its a great collaboration platform that support the business a lot

Our creative team uses Microsoft Teams to collaborate on daily projects, communication, and also team meetings. We're able to do screen shares for quick training sessions or hold larger team meetings where everyone can join in. Since COVID, our team has gone 100% remote so being able to connect online with Microsoft Teams has been a lifesaver.
