Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams was implemented across our entire organization but then used for individuals teams and departments. Microsoft Teams provides a one-stop-shop/"landing spot" for members of a team to share valuable information, documents and keep track of each others' progress on critical projects. It allows team members to collaborate more seamlessly than with previous methods, such as regularly emailing each other information, documents, and project updates.
- Great Layout - Microsoft Teams has a great layout/interface.
- App Integration - Microsoft Teams allows integration for several other apps/programs, including those from Microsoft and other developers.
- Team Management - anyone can create a team, so if there is no direction from upper management about how to best use the app and who should be leading. Its integration within an individual department or team, you could quickly end up with more than one "Team" on the app.
- Replication - some of the functions, like the chat feature, replicate the functionality of other popular apps many companies already use, like the chat feature and Skype. So you could end up with multiple chats going on the same project that aren't all within the Teams app.
- Efficiency - Microsoft Teams helps my team be more efficient by allowing the team members to work together more efficiently because all the project documents are together in one place.
- Collaboration - Microsoft Teams allows team members to collaborate and provide input quickly and easily on other team members' ideas and documents.
We previously had Microsoft Sharepoint available to our team but never used it because we didn't find it convenient or user-friendly. We had to spend more time trying to figure out how to best use it, and we essentially gave up. I think that's because Sharepoint is mostly just for storage - and we needed a collaboration tool, which is precisely what we found with Microsoft Teams.
