- kimbernator 4y agoI've been in a "mixed" slack/teams environment and it seems there was always a push to be a little more teams-y every month or so - given that Github is owned by MSFT, I wouldn't be surprised if that happened there, too.
- sofixa 4y ago> I've heard that with regards to video conferencing, it's competitive with zoom. Did you hear that from a Microsoft salesperson? Only a person who hasn't used both regularly can say that. UX and features on Zoom are better. The mere fact that to this day Teams has wildly different features depending on how you join the call is a joke - for instance, joining from a browser on macOS results in no chat (the button simply isn't there).
- rhaway84773 4y agoIf you asked someone who’s new to Zoom if they’re on mute or not, I bet they will have a 50% hit rate. Heck, I bet even someone who regularly uses Zoom would have the same success rate. The Zoom UI is atrocious.
- ChickenNugger 4y ago>(the button simply isn't there). What?! This has to be a glitch or something. How can something so basic be simply missing this long? Teams is not a new product. I just checked. It's 5 years old.
- aaron_m04 4y agoThat makes a huge difference. It's worth editing the title to add "for video conferencing".
- markmark 4y agoMy current company had the same thing happen on acquisition, we had to ditch Zoom for Teams for video, but could stay on Slack. I find Teams video absolutely fine. It just works and I never think about it.
