Looks lot similar like its competitor you know who
- supriyo-biswas 3y agoTeams, for anyone unfamiliar. I’m surprised they’re taking this direction, given that no one I know of likes Teams.
- mike503 3y agoTeams is terrible. If it wasn't Microsoft forcing it on everyone with forced upgrades and such it wouldn't have ever gone anywhere.
- theshrike79 3y agoThe single best selling point of Teams is that it's included in the O365 subscription every corporation has anyway so that they can get Powerpoint, Excel and Word
- maratc 3y agoTeams is a lot like herpes: no one chose it, but everyone has it.
- blowski 3y agoBecause it’s bundled for free with tools people do want, like Excel and Outlook. I don’t know anyone that would choose Teams as a stand-alone product.
- mnd999 3y agoDo they really want those? I haven't used either in a very long time.
- blowski 3y agoI'm not aware of a report that shows "popularity of Excel", but I can give some points. * I pay for my own Excel license because it's so useful for me in a variety of contexts. My wife does all our family accounts using it. * Globally, Microsoft estimate 1 billion monthly active Excel users, and said at a conference last year that some admin staff spend approximately 30% of the week using Excel. * Training for Excel is a top selling course on Udemy. * Working in Enterprise, there were a lot of people (BAs, Finance, PMs) who said they would quit if IT didn't provide Excel. So I'd say "yes, there's a lot of people who want Excel". I'm sure there is less enthusiasm for Outlook, but amongst people who live in calendars and email, it seems to be pretty popular.
- maratc 3y agoTeams is pretty useless as a standalone product anyway.
- JoBrad 3y agoWe’re slowly moving to Teams. It’s good for sharing documents and calendars. It’s horrible for chat and meetings.
