“Efficient Teamwork On Microsoft Teams Sometimes Disrupted By Notification Delays”
My overall experience with Microsoft Teams has been really great. It has made communication and collaboration within our organization much more convenient. I use it regularly for my day-to-day professional work to chat with my colleagues and also to call them and connect with them to ask any doubts whenever and from wherever I am which is really cool since I work in hybrid mode. I also use it for sharing many files with my teammates. This platform is really very easy to use. It also tracks my meetings and saves them in my team's calendar from where I'm able to daily access and see what meetings are scheduled for the day and be prepared accordingly. It also gives a notification every 15 minutes before my meeting starts to keep me aware about it which is also a very nice feature. Overall, it's a very efficient tool to communicate, share files, data, chat, call, attend meetings and it definitely has enhanced teamwork much easier!

Occasionally, I witness the notifications getting delayed or the messages not syncing immediately across devices is the only thing I dislike the most. Otherwise, it's fine.
Read Full ReviewI don't like that it defaults to starting up at login; that can be a little disruptive when you first get into the office to start work.
Read Full ReviewWe have not found anything to dislike about Microsoft Teams. It has worked really perfectly for us and we have never encountered any challenges at all while working with it. There has been excellent support services from the support team as well as the online documentation.

What Your Peers Are Saying About Microsoft Teams
Communications Manager
One of our main issues today is the future of telephony. We have different solutions and technologies in place to satisfy various needs. For example, the office does not have the same requirements as the production area. We have decided to harmonize telephony worldwide using Microsoft Teams telephony. However, we are uncertain about the best approach for the production area, which has minimal needs (just making and receiving calls) and currently uses simple DECT phones.
We are considering whether to continue with DECT, switch to DECT linked to Teams, or use smartphones with Teams. Can someone share what they use in their production areas?IT Analyst
See Full DiscussionAs we modernize and consolidate services, it's important not to lose sight of the core purpose behind them. In a manufacturing environment, telephony serves as a critical fallback communication tool—often the only means of reaching emergency services when all other infrastructure fails. Additionally, some manufacturing operations require hotline telephony, where simply lifting the handset automatically dials preset numbers. Given this, we must minimize potential points of failure and ensure seamless interoperability between modern and traditional systems.
My take would be,
1. Implement a hardwired PBX system for hotlines, ensuring reliable emergency communication. Use fixed phones for common services and DECT for cordless extensions in the production plant to maintain mobility without compromising reliability.
2. Integrate the PBX system with Teams or an IP telephony (IPT) solution to enhance interoperability.
3. Leverage smartphones as an additional option where applicable, keeping in mind that most off-the-shelf models are not intrinsically safe for use in production areas.
This approach balances cost-effectiveness with functionality—eliminating recurring subscription costs for plant extensions while maintaining a unified number plan. Moreover, DECT provides nearly double the coverage of Wi-Fi, operates on a separate frequency to prevent interference, and contributes less to floor noise, making it a more suitable choice for industrial environments.

We are trying to develop a policy around MS Teams message retention. What have you used for your message retention period?Director of IT
See Full DiscussionMessage retention period cannot not be same across organisation, it’s depends on the regulatory requirements, employee department and seniority of the employee.

Microsoft Teams Offers Reliable Meetings Despite Integration and Navigation Shortcomings
I would call it a solid meeting tool considering the meeting communication experience I have so far. (more than 3-4 years). It comes with a great calendar and UI but with some navigation and integration gaps. Overall I am really happy with Microsoft Teams. It is reliable for day-to-day communication and meetings. Also it is my main tool for scheduling and recordings.
