Microsoft Teams

Joseph Blackmon

I started using this app for my new job a couple months ago, and it has been a smooth ride. I'm honestly surprised as I was expecting a number of bugs or issues as with mqny Microsoft apps. It is almost easier to navigate than the desktop app, thus it is perfect for keeping online and up-to-date when I am away from my work-station. I even often use it as another way to receive notifications while I'm working. Since it's hard to miss when my phone vibrates.

Doesn't allow viewing or sharing of screen. The notifications need a major overhaul. Sometimes they come in, sometimes they don't, but the biggest problem is when they do work, they work too well. If a team is having a conversation I have to listen to my notification sound basically play constantly for the entire conversation which gets old very fast. If an active conversation is happening is shouldn't be notifying me for every single message.

I just recently got a new job and this is how we communicate. So, this app has completely failed to notify me when I get a message. Sometimes, I'll sit in the chat and nothing will happen, so I'll exit out the app entirely and reenter, only to find a message from 10+ minutes ago. Very frustrating. But overall, if it worked properly, this app would be a pretty solid idea. Definitely needs some tweaking and fixes.

Nice interface, but: 1. Often times it doesn't update a conversation unless I leave it and reenter it. 2. The timestamp does not appear with every message. 3. It does not allow to segregate audio and visual notifications, is either both or none. It is extremely annoying to continuously hear dings when people cannot write complex sentences, and keep sending small batches of words.

Loving it more and more each day. Suggest you (and fellow collaborators) have at least two monitors to experience awesome capabilities! I believe it will only get better with time. 05/28/22: continue to love it, but finding the inconsistencies across the integrated apps/fratures challenging. I'm concerned that Microsoft may not improve the consistency because I'm fairly certain very few M365 users use it like I am. MS uses telemetry to ensure they maximize their bottom line.
