The ability to create channels for different projects or departments keeps communication organized. The video and audio quality during meetings is consistently reliable, and integration with the rest of the Microsoft 365 suite makes workflows very efficient. > > **Cons**: At times, Teams can feel a bit resource-intensive on older hardware, and the user interface can be overwhelming for new users. Notifications can also become hard to manage if you’re part of many channels and teams. > > Overall, my experience with Microsoft Teams has been excellent. It has become a central hub for daily communication and collaboration, especially in a remote and hybrid work environment. It helps keep everyone aligned, improves productivity, and reduces email overload. After a short learning curve, it becomes an indispensable tool for any team. ----- ### "Teams, a great tool for global connection" — 5.0/5 > **Duncan** | *3 July 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how easy it is to connect with everyone in your organization, no matter where they are in the world. > > **Cons**: I don't like all the added features that try to connect into Teams like other channels or tools. I want to use Teams to connect with people. I dont like tools such as powerpoint trying to be used within Teams. It does not work to well > > Overall, I rely on Teams every day. It allows me to quickly reach my peers and also to connect with people who are in the same organisation but sit in different parts of the world ----- ### "Microsoft Teams Review" — 5.0/5 > **Rachel** | *10 June 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great for Team Communication. In our industry it's not always easy to just phone someone so Teams Messaging is great. > > **Cons**: We have sometimes found it a little echoey in meetings but it could relate to someone hitting mute. Easily rectified. > > It's great for pulling the team together for face-to-face chats when we gave staff who work remotely. ----- ### "MS Teams has to be the BEST tool for collaboration" — 5.0/5 > **Berny** | *29 July 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The amount of plugins, integrations, etc that can be hooked into Teams is amazing. I have everything directed into Teams. It's my one place I go to every morning. > > **Cons**: It needs to have permissions that can be set up per channel, not only overall on the whole Teams site. ----- ### "the best connection utility." — 5.0/5 > **paolo alessandro** | *11 August 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: it's the best tool for making videoconferences, but not only. The included chat feature is very easy to use and allows to send colleagues images and documents > > **Cons**: The share screen feature is a little bit dangerous (pay attention not to share reverved docs with external people) and does not support multiple monitors as I currently use > > It's very easy to use but's powerful. I use it for online training. (you can record all the lesson very easily). I use also for explaining outsourced engineers what they have to do. ----- Page: 1 / 447\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/168668/microsoft-teams?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/168668/microsoft-teams) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
