What is Microsoft Teams?

Microsoft Teams combines video conferencing software with team collaboration tools. The communications platform allows MS Office users to conduct conference calls and share files via SharePoint, and join or initiate a group chat.

Microsoft Teams features three tiers of pricing. The first is a subscription-less, free option that offers the same features as the other two tiers but does not offer administration tools like analytics and access to on-premise servers, or support features like 24/7 phone and web support. The second and third tiers are based on the size of your business and its conferencing needs. Its “Office 365 Business Premium” option starts at $12.50 a month per user, with a required annual commitment, and its “Office 365 E3” option for enterprises starts at $20 a month per user, also with a required annual commitment.

Key Features
Meetings: Meet with teams of 10 or 10,000. Host audio, video, and web conferences with anyone inside or outside your organization or go big with live events.

Calling: Its Phone System feature enables PBX capabilities including call control in Office 365 and replaces on-premises PBX. Its calling features are customizable to fit your organization’s unique needs.

  • Real-time updated Microsoft Teams status of other users (i.e. immediate status changes of 'online', 'away', and 'busy' amongst all healthcare organization computers).
  • Integration with Microsoft Outlook is excellent - workplace meeting invitations accepted on Outlook will synchronize with Microsoft Teams automatically and allow easy viewing (e.g. accepted Outlook invite to video teaching session will be integrated into Microsoft Teams calendar).
  • Aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly interface - easy to initiate workplace 'chats' with staff present on a particular day.

Teams for Enterprise.
