Microsoft Teams

Sometimes teamwork crosses organisational and geographic boundaries. This can make communication hard –but it doesn’t need to thanks to Microsoft Teams.

What is Microsoft Teams?

Microsoft Teams is a digital workspace available as part of your Microsoft Office 365 subscription. It allows your employees to call or message each other wherever they are. They can also share and work together on Office 365 documents and automatically store them on your SharePoint. In other words, Microsoft Teams is an all-in-one solution for teams to communicate and collaborate on documents.

Key Features of Microsoft Teams

Meetings

Host meetings online with Microsoft Team’s video conferencing feature. Invite people inside or outside your company, organise webinars or live events and benefit from additional features such as note taking or desktop sharing to enhance your video-conferencing experience.

Calling

Calling and communicating is at the heart of what this business application does. Depending on your Microsoft Licence, you will be able to make Teams-to-Teams calls free of charge, or to make and receive calls from anywhere in the world, and on any device (phones, computers, Teams Rooms, …).
