Why Workplaces Are Moving To Microsoft Teams & How To Benefit From Cloud Based Communication Platforms

Microsoft Teams

What is Microsoft Teams?

Microsoft (MS) Teams is an integrated set of services in Office 365. It empowers teams to communicate and collaborate from their desk, on the go, or in the meeting room. MS Teams brings together people, conversations, content, and notifications from across the suite into one unified experience. By bringing together familiar tools and services like SharePoint Online, Planner, Skype for Business, and Yammer chat into one cohesive service, MS Teams streamlines how you work with your team and improves productivity. This also helps your organisation become more connected. It also facilitates greater employee engagement by allowing them access to the content they need while on the go. MS Teams is used by 1000’s of workplaces in Australia and over 50,000 globally[1].

Benefits of using Microsoft Teams

There has been a significant shift to remote work in recent times with many people working from home or in various locations. In addition to this, there is an increased need for more collaboration within work groups. From communication, automated workflows, and file sharing. Work from anywhere at any time, a simple login is all it takes to be back in the action. Features like a shared clipboard and screen-sharing allow for seamless collaboration between colleagues who might not be working in the same physical space.
