Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams has replaced our previous document repository tool and has also replaced Skype as our new communication within teams members. It has a good structure to it (provided it is thought out), ease in use and good UI. There is also the ability to search within Microsoft Teams and that makes it easy to search for files/folders and communication history. It also integrates well with other plugins such as Microsoft power apps, Miro etc. so that has been a great help in managing work and comms.
  • provides ability to organise folders and files (good front end to SharePoint)
  • provides great use of communication between team members and external parties
  • provides great integration with other apps such as Microsoft power platform, Miro etc.
  • The search function could be made better- especially for finding things within chats
  • It is a little annoying going to previous pages within Microsoft Teams, at times i feel like it would be nice to open things in a new windows
  • sometimes Microsoft Team crashes - but very rarely and that can be a pain
  • Less time waste in finding files/folders
  • Good that it integrates with mobile as well as desktop
  • Easier to contact team members and create group chats
Microsoft Teams is just a nicer front end to SharePoint for file and document management but it also has a good communication network for internal and external parties. It's easy to use on mobile device as well. It also integrates well with Microsoft Power Platform etc, meaning that certain tasks can be automated and interlinked with Teams etc.

Scenarios where MicrosoftTeams is well suited include: - internal and customer collaboration - integrations with other apps (Microsoft power platform work really well with this tool) - file/folder management (front end of SharePoint) Scenarios where Microsoft Teams is not well suited - I can't really think of anyplace where it might not be well suited.
