Teams is awful. Specifically the non-native notifications which have been complained about for 4 years with no action.
Fix that single item and I'd have a positive view of the product.

- guidedlight 6y agoSure. Microsoft’s main customer are large corporations. I work for one, and I can assure you (for security reasons) my company does not want Teams messages to leave the Microsoft ecosystem for the sack of better OS integration.
- Nextgrid 6y agoHow does using the native OS notifications somehow make the data leave the ecosystem? These notifications are still local to the machine, just that now they respect the user's notification preferences (including those enforced by MDM like hiding notifications when the machine is locked, etc).
- johnwalkr 6y agoThat's an awful one! Especially if you use zoom or something else, there's no easy way to hide notifications and the system-wide setting doesn't hide them! My main gripe is file sharing. It's unclear to users how share point is integrated, and almost guaranteed to cause a mess of local files vs shared files throughout your org. But my favorite: ever since Teams started opening a new window for meetings, it has this really awful behavior: when sharing a screen in a meeting, it minimizes your meeting window, and shows the main window, which is most likely a private message you may not want to share.
- mqus 6y agoThe new window is the "new teams experience" which you can thankfully disable in the settings. I don't know who had built it but leaving out the fullscreen option for watching a screenshare was pretty bad.
