What differentiates Microsoft Teams from other similar products?

I find Microsoft Teams to be very affordable for all of the features you get. It usually comes bundled with Microsoft Office which is already pretty affordable in itself. In addition to being affordable, it integrates with the other Office products seamlessly which makes it so convenient in an office environment that commonly includes products like Outlook already. Teams provides the modern features many businesses need especially these days where people can work from home.

What do you dislike most about this product?

One of the biggest downsides to this product is the fact that you generally cannot message anyone outside of your corporate environment. Teams does actually have the capability, but most organizations do not allow it. Administrators will lock it down for security purposes which is basically the default choice in an IT department. So don't count on collaborating with outside vendors or colleagues via Teams unless your IT security admins are generous enough to open up that line of communication.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Try it out if you have any doubts. Microsoft offers trials on the product so you can test it out and see if you like it. However, if you have worked with Microsoft Office products before, then the transition to Teams is pretty easy and you will find it very helpful and user friendly. Teams includes all of the features you need for your employees to function in a team environment without always having to meet in person. It makes it a lot easier for your workforce to be flexible in times of telework, including if someone wants to stay home sick or has to stay home so that a new stove can be delivered. It's a great product
