Welcome to Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams (aka MS Teams, Teams) is an all-in-one communications platform complete with document sharing, instant messaging, video conferencing, and many more useful features for managing your digital interactions. Teams bridges the gap between in-person and remote activities and allows everyone to interact online wherever they are. Some notable features of MS Teams are...
- Video and/or audio-only conferencing
- Share your screen, camera, or voice at the same time or individually. MS Teams is flexible and offers a variety of communication methods.
- Instant messaging (Chat)
- Instantly search and find colleagues within the organization that are using MS Teams, complete with a suite of status conveniences to keep distractions at a minimum.
- Automatic document storage
- Each team created automatically receives a SharePoint (Shared OneDrive) site attached to the team. All files shared within Teams are seamlessly backed up on the team's site for convenience.
- Organization features
- Manage your team with dedicated spaces, called Channels, to host specific types of exchanges and collaborative activities.
- Team/group management
- All managers of a team have plenty of settings and configurations to customize the experience to almost any use-case. While, all members of a team can participate in conversations that are curated and organized by topic, importance, or whichever method the team prefers.
