You can chat, join video meetings, share files, and collaborate on documents without having to switch between apps. That kind of integration—especially with tools like Outlook, Word, Excel, and SharePoint—makes teamwork feel a lot more streamlined and connected.

Another standout feature is real-time collaboration. Multiple people can work on the same file at once, leave comments, and communicate instantly, which helps reduce the constant back-and-forth of email threads.

It’s also a strong option for remote and hybrid work. Features like meeting recordings, screen sharing, and channels make it easier to keep everyone aligned, even when people aren’t in the same location.

If I had to sum it up, it’s the mix of communication, collaboration, and integration that makes it so powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it feels a bit slow, especially when I’m switching between channels or trying to join a meeting quickly. The notifications can be a bit hit or miss too — I’ve missed a few messages because they didn’t pop up properly. Also, searching for old messages or files can be frustrating because it doesn’t always show the most relevant results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Microsoft Teams offers one of the best user interfaces for smooth communication. Its seamless integration with Outlook makes scheduling and joining meetings effortless. The video calling feature, with multiple filters and customizable backgrounds, adds a professional and engaging touch. The calendar view is intuitive and makes it easy to track upcoming meetings and events. Screen sharing is smooth and reliable, and the option to give participants access to control your screen makes collaboration even more effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One challenge with Microsoft Teams is viewing someone’s profile picture, as it cannot be enlarged to see the full image. There is also no option to mark a chat as unread once it has been opened, which makes it harder to keep track of pending responses. Finding older chat messages can be difficult, as the search function is not always intuitive or accurate. Notifications can sometimes be delayed or missed, especially when switching between devices. File search is also not very efficient, making it challenging to quickly locate shared documents from past conversations. Additionally, there are times when copying data from Excel and directly sharing it in Teams does not work smoothly, especially with large or complex tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can communicate with friends, family, and co-workers all on one platform. It also makes it easy to set up meetings and calls, and to send messages and documents in the same place. It has made my life so much easier by simplifying meeting scheduling, letting me create groups so I can talk to multiple people at once, and saving me hours. Now I can drag and drop information into one place, keep everything together, and stay organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not sure whether it’s Teams or my laptop, but it can feel a bit slow at times, especially when I have both my work and personal accounts open. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about it is that it’s not complex at all. It has a simple UI that basically does everything, so it’s easy to use and navigate. I also like its integration with other Microsoft tools like Outlook, Webex, OneDrive, Copilot, and many more, which reduces the time spent switching from one platform to another. Easy meeting access and calendar integration also help me keep track of upcoming meetings.

Another good part is that we can use it on any device. No matter where you are, you can still access it on your phone and attend meetings from almost anywhere, which has helped reduce travel time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It glitches a lot. The overall working of Teams isn’t very smooth, and the software lags many times. It also often doesn’t notify me about messages. I’m already logged in through the company, so I don’t have to add a password, but despite that it randomly logs me out, which is pretty annoying. Another major issue is the video and audio glitches. Most of the time we face problems with unclear voice or video. Since we work on Teams daily, these small glitches quickly become a bigger problem. Customer support is also pretty average; their solutions aren’t always helpful, and they can take time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Microsoft Teams is how seamlessly it brings chat, video meetings, file sharing, and collaboration into one place. It makes communication within a team much more organized compared to juggling multiple separate tools.

I also appreciate its integration with other Microsoft 365 apps like Word, Excel, and SharePoint, which makes real-time collaboration on documents very efficient. The ability to create dedicated channels for different projects or departments helps keep conversations focused and easy to track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Microsoft Teams is that it can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially with too many channels, notifications, and overlapping conversations. Important messages can easily get buried if notifications aren’t managed carefully.

It can also be resource-intensive and occasionally slow, particularly on older devices. Additionally, the file organization structure—since it’s tied to SharePoint and OneDrive—can be confusing for users who aren’t familiar with how Microsoft’s ecosystem works.

One thing I dislike about Microsoft Teams is that it can sometimes feel slow and cluttered, especially when many channels and chats are active. Finding older messages or files is not always intuitive, and the search function could be more accurate. Notifications can also become overwhelming if they are not carefully managed. Occasionally, the app may lag or use a lot of system resources, which can affect performance during meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What stands out to me about Microsoft Teams is how deeply it integrates with Microsoft 365. Chat, meetings, and file sharing all live in a single platform, which makes it easier to keep everything in one place. Channels help keep conversations organized by topic or project, so discussions don’t get lost. Files are automatically stored in SharePoint, which supports smoother collaboration and makes it simple to find and work on shared documents. Scheduling meetings through Outlook also feels seamless. It scales well for large organizations and includes strong security controls. Overall, it centralizes communication and collaboration without needing multiple separate tools.

It can feel resource-heavy and slow, especially on lower-spec machines. As teams and channels grow, the interface can start to feel cluttered and harder to navigate. Notifications can also be overwhelming, and the default settings don’t always feel well tuned. Search is inconsistent and doesn’t always surface what I expect, especially compared to competitors. There are also too many overlapping features (Chat vs Channels vs Posts), which can be confusing and make it unclear where certain conversations should live. External collaboration with guests isn’t always frictionless, either. Overall, it’s a powerful tool, but it isn’t always intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing I like in Microsoft Teams is The "Chat" and "Files" tabs inside a meeting are brilliant. Before a meeting, you can post an agenda in the chat. During the meeting, you can co-edit the document you're discussing. After the meeting, the chat history and all the files shared are permanently saved in that meeting's space in the team, so anyone who couldn't attend can catch up on the conversation and access the latest version of the work.

The dislike about Microsoft Teams is about the Slow Startup and Switching. That it can take a long time to launch, and switching between different Teams (for eg: jumping from your work team to a client team) often involves a frustrating loading spinner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside of Microsoft Teams is that it can sometimes feel heavy and slow, particularly when several channels, chats, and files are open and active at the same time.

What I like most about Microsoft Teams is how easy it makes working with others. Everything’s in one place — chats, meetings, and files — so I don’t have to switch between different apps all the time.
