Microsoft Teams Phone Reviews

“user-friendly app”

Pros

Everything about it feels very user friendly and it's incredibly simple to use. I also really appreciate having a mobile app that works just like the desktop version so switching between the two is smooth.

Cons

honestly I don't have any complaints. It's been fantastic, with plenty of funny GIFs and fun ways to communicate through games and polls. Forwarding a message and replying to it when needed is something I really enjoy too.

“Easy remote teamwork”

Pros

Working from home, I'm still able to stay connected with my team and see everyone regularly through video calls on Teams which really helps with day-to-day communication.

Cons

At times, it does take a while to load for me although that may just be something on my end rather than an issue others have.

“central planning and recordings”

Pros

Having recordings available for future reference is really helpful and it also gives us one central place where we can plan and stay connected.

Cons

One downside is that the customization options are fairly limited.

“friendly chat”

Pros

Its chat feature feels very user-friendly and it's the part I end up using the most.

Cons

Video meeting controls are harder to locate than they should be and navigating them can be a bit frustrating.

“easy to use”

Pros

Setting up meetings is more convenient, the chat works well and having recordings available for future reference is really useful.

Cons

The platform works well overall but the only issue is that it takes several steps to reach the option for downloading recordings.

“teamwork is easier”

Pros

Helps me stay in touch with my coworkers clearly and effectively which makes day-to-day communication much better.

Cons

I don't have any real complaints about using Teams.

“dependable software”

Pros

One thing that really stood out to me about Skype was how simple and dependable it is. It does what I need without making things complicated and I can count on it to work consistently.

Cons

At the same time, it does come across as a bit outdated when you compare it with some of the newer platforms available now.

“clean interface”

Pros

Using it feels very adaptive and practical. It helps me stay in touch with colleagues quickly through messages or video calls. Since it's widely adopted by many companies, it's also very convenient to arrange calls with clients or external stakeholders connected to my workplace and they can join without trouble through a simple link. The shared folder is also really useful for storing documents and materials that need to be shared with the team.

Cons

Few features are missing though. There's no way to mark certain contacts as favorites, no option to schedule messages to be sent at a specific time and no customizable status to let others know things like being out of office which other platforms usually offer.

“perfect for online meetings”

Pros

This is an excellent program for organizing online business meetings as well as private calls.

Cons

I haven't come across any downsides in Microsoft Teams.

“excellent integrations”

Pros

It does exactly what it's supposed to do. The collaboration tools work really well and the chat integration is especially useful. The Outlook email integration also works smoothly and adds a lot of value.

Cons

Honestly can't think of any downsides. It's a very well-built product and covers everything a distributed team needs.

“fantastic tool”

Pros

Very simple to use and it works really well for team communication and business needs.

Cons

Was happy with everything and didn't run into anything I disliked.

“Frustrating bugs”

Pros

Using GIFs in the chat is simple and adds a nice touch to conversations. It also makes internal communication and video conferencing convenient for staying connected with the team.

Cons

The downside is that it can be pretty buggy. Without the latest version of Microsoft Teams installed, I ran into a lot of issues. It would randomly freeze and my video calls would sometimes glitch which got frustrating fast.

“staying connected with colleagues”

Pros

It helps me keep in contact with my colleagues whenever I need to.

Cons

honestly I can't think of any downsides, it's been a really solid app for me.

“Solid team chat”

Pros

Works well for team communication and makes quick messaging between departments really convenient.

Cons

That said, it feels very outdated and can be difficult to use, with a pretty steep learning curve.

“Collaboration made effortless”

Pros

Getting started with Microsoft Teams is probably the best part about it. Pretty much anyone can jump in, schedule a meeting or start one right away without needing any training. It's also quick to launch video meetings and use features like screen sharing, breakout rooms and background effects. The chat works really well too, with rich text, emojis and mentions that make conversations more interactive. Sharing files is simple and the whole team can access them without any hassle.

Cons

Microsoft Teams delivers a reliable connection but the customization options are a bit limited.

“fun emojis”

Pros

One thing I really enjoy is being able to customize my messages with GIFs, stickers and emojis which makes conversations feel more personal and engaging.

Cons

I haven't run into any issues yet. I genuinely enjoy using the Teams application.

“I like using it daily”

Pros

It lets me send messages to my coworkers at work which is really helpful for staying in touch during the day.

Cons

This isn't always accessible for everyone which can make it harder for some people to use.

“indispensable for everyday work”

Pros

Using this every day has become second nature because it's so simple to work with and genuinely indispensable in my routine.

Cons

Something I'd really like to see improved is taking a screen grab directly from a chat. Right now, I still need to rely on a separate screenshot tool and then copy and paste it into Teams, instead of having that feature built in the way it was in Webex.

“clean layout”

Pros

Layout is simple and it works really well alongside other M365 products.

Cons

The desktop client can be pretty demanding on your internet connection at times.

“Love it”

Pros

Microsoft Teams works really well for the different things I need throughout the day. I use it to stay in touch with others, manage my calendar and store files all in one place.

Cons

What I like least is that files and images I receive don't have a simple download button which can be a bit inconvenient.
