For chat, Teams is horrible. I mean who thought in order to send a message in a channel, you need to start a "New Conversation"? And it has depends on other MS services such as Sharepoint and Azure. Not to mention you can't just have channels, you need to have a "Team" that has channels. The whole experience is way more convoluted that it should be.
For video, yes, it has a higher quality compared to Slack, but pretty much that's it. Because the joy ends with random crashes for no reason. Like now, I wanted to double check the "New Conversation" way of chatting and it just crashed. Lucky for me I only have to use it for video conferences once in a while.
Sometimes I am under the impression that not even Microsoft uses Teams internally because of how horrible it is.
- delecti 3y agoChannels being "in" a Team is how it works in Slack or Discord too. A given channel is associated within a server/workspace.
- ExoticPearTree 3y agoYeah, but in Teams you have to have a Team to have a channel. It makes absolutely no sense. So even if you are a small company, you'll have a default Team called whatever with a General channel in it. Bonkers.
