Microsoft teams – What is it exactly? Over the years we have tried and tested multiple collaboration-based platforms, but there is only one winner in our eyes – Microsoft Teams. Better yet, it is totally free to use making it the ideal solution for businesses who work in a professional team setting.
What is Microsoft teams exactly? Well, it is a chat-based collaboration platform that provides global, remote, and dispersed teams with the ability to work together and collaborate using highly effective features such as document sharing, one-on-one chat, online meetings, video calls and screen sharing just to name a few.
In today’s modern era, not every employee is required to work within the company’s office – some prefer to work from home or even oversees, so having an intelligent team space like Microsoft Teams is fundamental because it allows the ability for colleagues to continue working productively and communicate instantly regardless of where they are located.
