That is a lot but MS Teams lacks one key feature that only Zoom/WebEx type tools have - the ability to pause the screen-sharing. It is strange that even Google meet doesn't have that feature.
Sharing pause is quite helpful when doing external meetings.
The premium version of Teams would be one with: - Better UX. When working with Slack/Discord or any other of these apps. Going back to Teams is painful. - That does not drain my Iphones battery as much as watching 4 hours on youtube.
Also one that doesn't randomly crash for half the team when trying to join a meeting.
All MSFT including Code would randomly crash because of the vpn...
The real premium version of Microsoft Teams will be the one that doesn't crash my Google Chrome window every 30-45 minutes.
That's why we're building FossTeams [1], an open source client for Microsoft Teams (: The idea is to have a backend [2], powered by a library [3] that does the heavy lifting and a / multiple frontends to be used with that (e.g: CLI[4], Web frontend[5], Flutter app[6]). We're looking for contributors! If you hate Teams and want to improve an Open Source version, PRs are welcome (: [1]: https://github.com/fossteams [2]…
I have built an alternative Teams client for smart glasses using only MS Graph and Azure Communication Services and it can already do most interactions related to chat/meetings/org etc.
Did teams ever complete their rewrite off of AngularJS (classic angular)?

I wish they would push the calling aspect of Microsoft Teams more. The technology is great: 1. Receive business calls from anywhere and any handset or computer. Seamlessly transfer and pick up the call on any device. Can be linked to inbound 1800, 1300 numbers, landline numbers, etc. 2. Can do call forwarding, ring-out forwarding, and voice messages 3. Voice messages are recorded, transcripted and the audio file and…
Calls are the one thing Teams does well (and it does them really well), IMO. Everything else is quirky, but calls just work.

You're brilliant martyrs, but it's such a shame that Teams is just universally accepted as a new enterprise thing. I've never really seen such an anticompetitive move by Microsoft in the last decade, but Teams has taken on both Slack and Zoom and friends and they shove it "for free" down their enterprise customers' throats. It's crying out for a competition authority investigation and a compulsory breaking up -- not…

What sets this project apart from the MS Graph API? Are there any API features that Graph does not have? I have built an alternative Teams client for smart glasses using only MS Graph and Azure Communication Services and it can already do most interactions related to chat/meetings/org etc.
This gives you a way to run an alternative client in corporations where you don't have the possibility to use third party apps. On top of that, since it's not using the Graph API, we might get better features that will take long time to be available in the Graph API.

Look at the history of past Microsoft chat products... and then name one they didn't run slowly into the ground and then replace with something else! - MSN Messenger - Windows Live Messenger - Microsoft Office Communications - Microsoft V-Chat - Microsoft Lync - Skype - Skype for Business (nothing to do with Skype - completely different software) - Microsoft Classroom - Windows Meeting Space - Microsoft NetMeeting -…
MSN Messenger was great and significantly better than the abomination that is Teams. Was Teams ever good?

I see what you mean though. I don't remember Teams ever being good.
