Increasing customer demands and business revolutions have transformed the workforce into “workplace champions” and in order to stay in line with the organization’s goals and achieve milestones, a robust and intuitive communication platform that offers
are crucial.
Microsoft Teams is emerging as a major player in the intra-office communication space that comes as a whole package of robust features, advanced functionalities, frequent updates, and intuitive design making it superior to Slack.
Every organization runs on an array of applications to successfully execute their business processes on a day-to-day basis – IT, Support, LMS, Payroll, HR, and more. It’s very important that all these processes communicate with one another and allow data interoperability to make more effective business decisions. Additionally, companies use many other third-party software based on their business needs. Integrating all these applications and consuming data is crucial in achieving operational visibility and process efficiency. For which Teams supports 150 third-party integrations such as Zendesk, Hootsuite, Asana, and more. Moreover, Teams can be integrated with the rest of all Office 365 components that makes it a better collaboration tool than Slack.
Data security and compliance are very critical to manage and maintain company and customer sensitive data from theft or accidental damages. Again, content shared within an organization should be prevented from security vulnerabilities. Since Teams falls under the Office 365 ecosystem, it enjoys the security compliance of O365 and users are given privileges such as Threat Management and Data Loss Prevention (DLP). Advanced Threat Protection feature of Office 365 safeguards Teams from malicious content being uploaded and stored in MS Teams.
MS Teams supports over 20 languages and companies that have offices in multiple locations can benefit from this. Additionally, users who cannot be reached through Teams can be sent an email (channel mails) from Outlook. However, emails are displayed as chat messages on the Teams interface. Additionally, Teams has an advanced search bar at the top that enables to search anything on Teams in a single click.
Ever since Teams was launched, it goes through frequent updates to make the tool more robust and user-friendly. Recently, Teams has been enhanced with a feature – “Tab”. The most frequently used applications, documents or websites that reside in the Teams platform can be tabbed on the home page and Teams supports 200+ such applications. Additionally, the Tab feature facilitates users to differentiate between files and nail down on the required files or pages quickly.
Teams allow to share files within a team or an organization and enable them to work collaboratively even if they are located at different places. However, edit/update functions can be performed after downloading the file. Group chat, instant messaging, video calling, scheduling meetings, and file sharing capabilities make it a more robust collaborative platform.
Having said that, tightly coupled security and compliance policies, frequent product updates, 150+ integration touch points, and user-friendly design make MS Teams a champion workplace software and a robust collaboration platform.
