What do you dislike most about this product?

The recording feature can be made more intelligent. Sometimes people forget to turn off the recording of a group call at the end of the call. Eventhough no one is speaking or nothing is happening for hours, the app keeps recording, if someone forgot to leave the call. After some time the recording must switch off by itself and display the message that recording is switched off.

This is the best product, given it is tightly integrated with other Microsoft products. Microsoft is a great company when compared to other tech companies. It is always a pleasure to associate with such great companies. Teams is much better than its competition and a true collaboration tool.
