Technology

It's the Sharepoint of chat.

It's still better than WebEx because I don't have to log in to that piece of shit software to start a video call.

The file/document integration is based on SharePoint. Shit built on top of a nice pile of manure

Edit: and don't get me started on the teams android app which requires access to all your media if you try to share a single image. If you share it as a file attachment however it's completely fine. No your not getting access to my files and pictures MS, keep your filthy adware fingers off my data

Teams was a factor in leaving my last job. It was a small factor, but a factor nevertheless.

As with all things in business, good enough is king

I actually don't mind it being web based, there are a lot of web based tools that run perfectly fine and don't use that much resource

Teams is generally stable for me running the pwa in Microsoft edge nowadays too

Is there a Microsoft product that isn't?

To be fair, Teams is pretty bad even for MS. I've never seen something do so relatively little and still perform so poorly. When I switched jobs and got to use Slack it was like a great fog being lifted off of my being.

Trying to play a video in a meeting results in 2009 levels of choppiness. It's insane.

Honestly I don't know how it is even possible to make such a dog shit product. I think my first webrtc tutorial app works better than this piece of shit.

Unfortunately, much better than Skype
