What is Microsoft Teams?

Microsoft Teams, or "Teams" for short, was developed to improve communication and interaction in companies in order to create optimal collaboration. In doing so, the platform proves its advantages especially in times of the home office and holds some useful features for this.

• So you can create teams in Microsoft Teams and use different channels. This allows you to create different channels for different areas, for example, for the sake of clarity, which ensures a simplified work.
• Furthermore, you have the option to use the chat function both inside and outside of these channels, so that you can communicate with each other, for example, in the group or even in private.
• Furthermore, Teams has an audio call function, with which you can also make phone calls.
• Based on this is video telephony, where you can not only talk to each other, but also a visual interaction is possible. Diese Funktion eignet sich besonders für Konferenzen und Meetings, da Sie hier auch den Bildschirm freigeben und andere an Ihren Präsentationen teilhaben lassen können.
• Zudem können Sie auch einen Kalender nutzen, um dort Meetings oder andere Termine übersichtlich zu planen.
• Neben den zu Microsoft gehörenden Tools haben mittlerweile auch verschiedene Anwendungen von Drittanbietern auf der Plattform Einzug gehalten.
