That’s all.
Out of curiosity are any similar products actually good? My company uses Webex and frankly I’d rather use teams.
I dont know… SharePoint has pissed me the hell off too, its a close one
Since I have not seen anyone mention this problem yet: Teams doesn’t let you mute other people in a call for yourself. Obviously also no volume control per person. Imagine sitting next to your coworker in a teams meeting and having to deal with hearing them twice with like 20 ms delay. Awful.
I use it daily and think it’s excellent. Skype, on tnge other hand, is diabolical.
I no longer work with corporations, but an online ornithology classI did used teams. It worked, mostly, for a while. Then one day it decided that video would no longer work on my machine. Of course there’s no obvious log or anything.
I even booted windows to see if it would fix it, but no.
That was on a very exotic yoga 7 pro laptop.
It’s the only piece of software that’s ever behaved that way.
No, no! Dogshit sometimes fertilizes and promotes growth. Microsoft teams is poison.
I can’t believe we still can’t moderate chat in a public webinar…. « Hey the guy who wrote ‘FUCK’ 20 times? Yeah you can kick him out, but make sure to keep these messages visible for all posterity »
Can’t send private messages to outsiders also. Who could EVER need this in a public event anyway?
And make sure you can’t let people join the breakout room of their choice. Take the time to individually assign them one by one before the meeting! Fun!!
Hey at least we can play Backgammon in a meeting, so there’s that right?
Genuinely the single worst messaging app I’ve ever used. Worse than Skype, which is crazy because Microsoft owns that too.
I don’t care. I’ll take anything that maintains staff meetings from home. Before COVID they were 90% in person.
I have a Jabra Headset (now retired) that literally has a MS Teams logo on the side and is market as “Teams compatible”. As you might have guessed, Teams is the only VC app were I regularly have to switch betwen inputs to get the headset to work during a call.
💯
Am I the only one that prefers it to Slack?
Microsoft spent billions acquiring Skype only for us to be left with Teams
It’s like a graveyard of companies that Microsoft has acquired over the years. Sharing files is one brand name (Sharepoint if i recall), making video calls is another name, planned events is another - every function has a brand name to it, which made me feel like these were the last remaining trace of long-absorbed companies.
But that’s just my recollection, i haven’t touched Teams since Covid
