I disagree since 99% of the Teams program is fluff. What a bunch of useless, overly complicated garbage crammed into one stupid thing. Trying to consolidate all programs into one mega program might sound good, but it is stupid. Most people will only use one or two functions of this program that has a thousand functions. What a garbage program. If we want team voice chat and messaging, we use Discord. If we want video conferencing, we use Zoom. If we want shared calendars, we use Gmail. If we want file sharing, we use dropbox. But how many people use ALL of those five things I just mentioned? Probably very very few. and that is just five functions. Expand that to hundreds? Forget it. What a shame.
Never used Teams, but after seeing this I am intrigued. Honestly, it has so many features. It's like messenger, facebook post, discord channel, zoom meeting, ms office in one place! Can't wait to use this app.
I have started to use this app recently as I am now working from home. My employer has sent me a bunch of written instructions, but I am visual/experimental learner so cannot be dealing with that. I must say this is the best tutorial I have seen; very easy to follow.
I've started using Teams recently, since I've been working at home and I didn't find it very easy to work with at the beginning. So your video was a great help, in a summed up way you gave us an overall view of teams. Thank you!
No application is easy to work with at the start. Things like these are a great option. However, I would suggest you start messing around with the controls and see what does what. And by doing that, you might get the hang of it. It's like a phone.
By far, this was the most helpful and informative bit of instruction and introduction to Microsoft Teams that I've accessed. Truly well done. I recommend it enthusiastically.
I would have loved to see more on how to use Teams for school purposes: how to use whiteboard during a meeting, how it prevents from intruders to enter meetings.
Kevin, thank you for this wonderful tutorial. My organization is in the process of migrating everything to Office 365, and they're implementing apps incrementally. We will soon be using MS Teams, and being the techie (geek) that I am, I always want to know how to use applications as soon as we have them. Your tutorial provided me with a good understanding of the functionality, so once the organization pushes it out to us, I should be comfortable using it.
Best overview about Microsoft Teams and has been explained clearly and most importantly covered most of the part of Microsoft Teams without unnecessary talking.
This was the best introduction to Teams I've seen: perfect pace, understandable, easy to follow. Am very glad I found it after trying a bunch of other tutorials. Thank you so much!
I've been ignoring Team since my organization launched it. I haven't had time to teach myself. In 20 minutes you gave me a great job off to be able to work really well in this platform. Thanks
Very helpful video. Has been using team in the last 6 months, it was a bit overwhelming. Now I am going to use it everyday. This video covers everything. Well done!
Hi I'm also interested in this. In Sharepoint you have the option to create Choice Columns, but I don't see the dropdown list to select a choice on Teams. Nice feature, but not to intuitive to use
Brilliant overview of Teams. I am applying for a job and they use Microsoft teams as their CRM. Watching this video has given me a great overview of how Teams works. I my previous job I used SLACK. I have to say just watching the tutorial I love the richness that Teams offers. Fingers crossed I get the job and get to use Teams in real time.
My company had us attend a webinar on teams because we transitioning away from Skype business and this seems to be a more efficient method. Especially working remotely. The webinar lasted an hour and I honestly tuned out after about 10 minutes. I watched this video and. It only do I have a pretty good understanding of the teams I have ideas on how to use it for my team that o work with. I’m more excited to be using it now then I was after the webinar. This video taught me more in 20 minutes than the hour long webinar.
Excellent video! I am preparing for a job interview and your video was so helpful! Microsoft Teams is a preferred requirement for the job but I have never used it before. After watching your video, I feel much more confident I can comfortably learn to use Microsoft Teams for the job. Thanks again!
Thank Kevin. Great tutorial! Love your pacing, clear delivery. I am fairly new to Teams, was just using what I needed to in order to keep up with a project. Your tutorial has filled in the 'gaps' for me.
A beginner, I am accessing Teams because our group will be using it next month instead of ZOOM. There's a lot to LEARN! I've actually backed up the video to listen to your presentation to help it sink in! ") Bit by bit. Thank you for making it available.
Great video, my employer has just started using Teams and I have to come up with some workflows for how to manage sensitive information for my national team. This was very helpful as a first starting point in learning about it.
Great tutorial. Well conducted and paced. Easy to follow. Starting to migrate my dept into Teams for a more centralized collaboration model and I can already see the possibilities! Thank you.
Thanx a lot Kevin. My name is Singi from South Africa. I am a lecturer and I teach through Microsoft Teams. I like microsoft teams, but there are few things I dont understand. 1. How to invite my students? - Do I have to send to each and everyone, and how - How to get their emails? 2. how to run a test with them? - How to mark them, assignments and tests?
Thanks for this. Very interesting. Is there a specific tutorial on setting up a learning workshop for external, not part of your company, contacts/clients?
Teams was installed at my workplace and everyone given access... but no Training ⛔📖. Of the 250 workers, 200+ are confused as hell, 20 are just confused, and 30 (administrators/dept head/managers) think this is the greatest thing in the world. Sometimes a "Great Stapler" makes a "Lousy Hammer." Common question at work, "my haven't you responded to my Teams message?" "I don't get on the computer but once a week..." "It's company policy you have to log in daily..." Nobody logs in daily. Just the elect 30... who got and paid for Teams. Seems to work for them.👍
I love your videos. I've learned more from your tutorials than I've ever learned anywhere else. Every time I watch one, I think "Oh, I need to share this with my team!" This one is no exception. You rock!
This is a superb intro to Teams - I have posted this across my company as we start to use teams during the Lockdown. BY FAR THE VERY BEST EXPLANATION!!! Well done
Hey Nick - I use the Rode NT USB mic as my main mic. I really like the mic and I did a video on it a little while back. ruclips.net/video/uSiJNrD5Ez8/видео.html It'll set you back about $170.
Very very helpful. Now I want to use Microsoft Team. My organization provided a how to video, and it had way to much information and it put me to sleep. I will be sharing this video to my office, so we can start using this right away. Thanks.
I really enjoyed this video. Our office is going to start using Microsoft Teams and I knew nothing about it. I enjoyed your presentation, what you went over and the different things you showed.
I've been trying to find instructions on how to add attendees to a recurring Teams meeting without sending an update to everyone who is already invited. Perhaps we need training on setting up meetings in Teams.
thanks Kevin, this will be so helpful when using Teams for the first time in my new job ! one thing I need to understand is whether most people now only use Outlook when they need a paper trail if they need to retain copies of specific messages i.e. when needing to file an electronic copy. Tia
You very much glossed over the requirements for using Teams. As I understand it as a single home user I cannot use Teams, I must have an association with a company or school that has Microsoft 365. This does not make sense to me. 1:10 of video. This means that if someone wants to, for example, interview me for a job while I am at home on my home PC or Mac, this is not possible?
Thanks Kevin, nice overview. The most confusion from fellow colleagues are around meeting calls - where does it get done? I see there are 3 areas : 1. Calendar pivot - schedule a meeting and you join the call 2. Teams pivot - inside a team section you have channels and can click the "Meet Now" button 3. Chat pivot - create a chat group and then call the chat group So people don't know where to create their chats like eg. Developer Standup meeting - should that be a Calendar meeting because it's a scheduled daily morning meeting? or should it be a channel you dial every morning and its organised in the Teams pivot space or a less organised chat dial inside the Chat pivot space. What is best practice for these? I have my Change & Release meeting scheduled in the Calendar, but then maybe its better to have it inside a Team Pivot called Change & Release with a channel called CAB meeting. And I just call that then all the discussion is inside a team channel.
Kevin, you are my go to for all things Microsoft. I have increased my skills by your training. A suggestion, if you could change your mouse in settings to slightly larger and perhaps a colored, it will help with eye tracking, when you are pointing to anything. The small arrow is like following a gnat, because it is small, with thin outline. I want to be helpful, not critical.
Thanks for the feedback Sandy! Newer videos have a larger mouse and cursor highlighting. Let me know if this is sufficient or whether I should do more. Cheers!
Hi Kevin, most grateful for your spirit of generosity and sharing. A question please: When students are in breakout rooms, how can they continue to see the questions for discussions on the powerpoint? Thank you in advance.
Best overview I've found. One recommendation though. Please enhance the size & colour of the mouse pointer/cursor so that it doesn't get lost from sight as it flies around the screen.
Hello Kevin, thanks for this tutorial. My name is Rosben and I am a language teacher and translator in Mexico. I have been trying to share with my colleagues this wonderful tutorial about Microsoft Temas but I noticed that it does not have subtitles in Spanish and some of them do not speak English. I would like to generate a translation in Spanish and if you are interested and liked it you can add it to the video as subtitles. Please let me know if this is something that interest you. I am not trying to profit from it, I just want to help make it available for others because I find your tutorials pretty useful.
Good overview, but MS Teams is pathetic. No way to login to multiple accounts if you work in more than one organizations. Slack has that. Audio and video quality is abysmal. Zoom has very professional, high quality audio and video. The list goes on and on. MS Teams quality is even worse than skype.
Harry M , sorry but I disagree, MS Teams is not perfect but is not pathetic at all. I work at a big company ( several thousands of employees) and around 75% of us have been using it intensively from home for the last 6 months, sharing files and having meetings, and chats all day, and the quality of service has been pretty good in general.
Kevin, you've become my must-watch RUclips channel. Thank you. Keep posting these awesome videos related to Microsoft, especially Teams. Extremely helpful, thanks to you I've been more efficient.
You did a great job, Kevin! My university has just jumped on the bandwagon. We're figuring out best practices for possible reopening in the fall. I'm not very technologically proficient, so you really helped a lot.
I have the following questions: 1) For teaching online, do my students have to purchase the teams software 2) Can you post pictures on the whiteboard? and 3) Is the whiteboard interactive for use by both the instructor and the students?
Rick - am smart 77 yr old attorney honing my WFH tech skills. Your presentations would be much easier for a beginner to follow (= user friendly) if the cursor was embedded in a 1-1.5" shadowed circle, as I saw in one of your previous presentations. Otherwise, you are very smart, often effective, and a credit to your organization. Frank Seiler, Esq.
Great video. 2 questions. 1- how many people can this handle... I have a presentation to do with 50 people... would that be too many for teams? 2- How does a conference room with a Cisco VTC dial into a Teams meeting?
Your video was very helpful! Teams chats can generate a lot of useful information and the save feature can save specific replies. What are the best ways to search and keep track of past chat conversations using key words or phrases?
Hi, Loving your Teams videos! When would you use 2 seperate Teams - Biology 101 Class 1 - Biology 101 Class 2 Vs 1 Team & 2Channels - Biology 101 -Private Channel for Classe 1 -Private Channel for Classe 2 Can you use all school functionalities in both cases?
It's so great to watch and listen to an instructional/informative presentation without filler words (ah, um, okay, like, you know...etc). It lets me know that the presenter knows his/her topic and can present well. Thank you for an excellent presentation.
Thanks so much for creating this video Kevin its my first intro to Teams and now I am not so overwhelmed. A special thanks to Brandon for the timestamps, so I can go back and review once i have created some teams. I would love a video that discusses the differences between a Team Site in Sharepoint vs a Team Site in Teams and when you would use SP vs Teams. I get confused between Sharepoint Groups, Teams, DL's, O365 Groups. My background is: I am currently a SP On-Prem Admin who needs to install O365 and migrate to SP On-line and then I will become the O365 Global Admin and SP- Online Admin
Kevin, I am new to Teams. Watched this lesson and learned a lot about Teams' features. I am still trying look for a training video which shows how to use Teams instead of Zoom for one-off meetings with clients, preferably through browser instead of a client having to download an app. Incidentally, in your presentation, I noticed that Zoom was one of the Apps which can be integrated with Teams. I wonder why would anyone use Zoom if Teams offers the same screen sharing features.
Kevin, this is an excellent introduction to MT. Succinct and well delivered - it is very clear. I have a question which is you may be able to help me with: is there anyway to pause a recording in MT? I would like to record a 60 minute talk but would obviously like to pause during the recording of the session.
Really nice. It helps a lot. I had one question that I went thru all of the video and didn’t find the answer. You talked a lot about team members, but what about clients of attendees? I know that you can record the presentation with MS TEAMS, but what about if we don’t want our conversation to be recorded. There is nothing on that subject. If you edit your video for a new version, it will be helpful to others to know about that delicate subject. Please continue with those high-quality videos of yours. Thanks,
Very great video Mr Kevin Stratvert what you explain about Microsoft Teams in very simplest manner . From that video I learned about what is Microsoft Teams and it uses .
PART I. Hi... great video... I agree. How fortunate we are to have you, a Microsoft official person, guide us through! Sorry to bother you and your viewers with lots of silly beginners questions but on Tuesday, I am starting to teach classes to my high school students from an alternative school and I am not aware yet of what I need to do. Initial questions: 1) There was a list of shortcuts, the first one being activity, -see what the other person has been doing? What exactly is this shortcut for? Can the administrators and service providers of my school could check how have I been spending my time in the last day of preparation? Can I as a simple teacher, check on anyone’s activities? 2) As we were doing Orientation and learning what was what, my classes were being created by IT and I was invited as a member…. Surprised that I wasn’t the owner and there were already 12 members in a class where I had not even post a hello… surprised me…. My question at this point would be: WHO WOULD BE ABLE TO READ THE POSTS? If the answer is all members and my students which I will sign up, then the question is the students could / will see the chat communication prior to me inserting their names into the classes? Or because they will join after the existing chats, they will not be able to read past POSTS? Also… could I delete all posts messages and just leave a welcoming message for my students and a note with what is what and how often my students will find….. and where they should find vocab… class notes….. assignments…. Etc. etc… ? (2b) Will my students see the posts? I 'm super new at this and others have already been added to what is suposed to be my class and service providerss, assistants, teachers have been added... tghere is some chat through post... when my classes begin I woudl like only to show PERTINENT POSTS FOR MY STUDNETS TO SEE LIKE A WELCOMING NOTE AND HOW TO NAVIGATE... WHERE WILL I BE POSTING WHAT... HOW OFTEN.. ETC... i
I really need to watch this because I don’t know how to use the app so I am not doing my work and my teachers are texting me,and I’m worried if I’m going to pass or not. And only now that I see the comment of the reunions I realize I miss school(because these people are really funny)and know I’m going to spill the tea so I checked the conversation comments on the reunion(or whatever that is)and a girl got mad so she started typing cuss words(she’s the ghetto girl and she use to always get in trouble in school)and the school principal said “watch your language”,then the gg left the reunion,now I’m really interested to know what happened after Getting back to topic,thank you for this video
Great video. Question I have. At my work place I have to setup meetings with 10-14 people on the fly frequently. These people are all in a team. Is there a way to send an invite through the calendar without typing all the names?
Kevin..great job...but I do have a doubt..when I am having a class in that is there any settings so that I can stay in center of the video so children can see me clearly..please recommend me..
Great video! We are currently using Skype for Business in our organization and will be transitioning to Teams in the next few months. Would you please let me know if you have any video or documentation on how to perform a task in Teams versus how you would have performed it in Skype for Business? We use SFB for IM, SFB meetings and call controls. I'd like to learn how to do a SFB tasks in Teams. Thanks
I don't have the answer to your question but if you are transitioning to Teams soon be sure to look for Microsoft Teams optimized headsets. They make all the difference when used with Teams!

Thank so much for the video!! My whole team recently went to work from home due to coronovirus....we needed this!!!!
We recently got MS Teams. Must admit it’s the best collaboration tool i have ever used. This overview session is so good for anyone to begin with.

I have my Change & Release meeting scheduled in the Calendar, but then maybe its better to have it inside a Team Pivot called Change & Release with a channel called CAB meeting. And I just call that then all the discussion is inside a team channel.
Me: Watches a tutorial of teams
5 seconds later: Discord server copy
Why brawl stars everyone this game grew yay
Kevin, you are my go to for all things Microsoft. I have increased my skills by your training. A suggestion, if you could change your mouse in settings to slightly larger and perhaps a colored, it will help with eye tracking, when you are pointing to anything. The small arrow is like following a gnat, because it is small, with thin outline. I want to be helpful, not critical.
Thanks for the feedback Sandy! Newer videos have a larger mouse and cursor highlighting. Let me know if this is sufficient or whether I should do more. Cheers!
How to use Zoom with Microsoft Eam that's what I'm interested in learning and can you put it simultaneously on Yoube and Facebook at the same time?
Hi Kevin, most grateful for your spirit of generosity and sharing. A question please: When students are in breakout rooms, how can they continue to see the questions for discussions on the powerpoint? Thank you in advance.
When i use my laptop it glitches and throws me off and i have to rejoin again and again , do u have any suggestions , how to fix it
Brawl stars lol
Best overview I've found. One recommendation though. Please enhance the size & colour of the mouse pointer/cursor so that it doesn't get lost from sight as it flies around the screen.
**New Info: Microsoft made Teams free for business/school accounts currently due to the COVID situation
Hello Kevin, thanks for this tutorial. My name is Rosben and I am a language teacher and translator in Mexico. I have been trying to share with my colleagues this wonderful tutorial about Microsoft Temas but I noticed that it does not have subtitles in Spanish and some of them do not speak English. I would like to generate a translation in Spanish and if you are interested and liked it you can add it to the video as subtitles. Please let me know if this is something that interest you. I am not trying to profit from it, I just want to help make it available for others because I find your tutorials pretty useful.
Good overview, but MS Teams is pathetic. No way to login to multiple accounts if you work in more than one organizations. Slack has that. Audio and video quality is abysmal. Zoom has very professional, high quality audio and video. The list goes on and on. MS Teams quality is even worse than skype.
Harry M , sorry but I disagree, MS Teams is not perfect but is not pathetic at all. I work at a big company ( several thousands of employees) and around 75% of us have been using it intensively from home for the last 6 months, sharing files and having meetings, and chats all day, and the quality of service has been pretty good in general.
Although I am using Teams for 6 months, learnt some good new features. Thanks
Tooo much information too quickly, my brain is hurting.
Kevin, you've become my must-watch RUclips channel. Thank you. Keep posting these awesome videos related to Microsoft, especially Teams. Extremely helpful, thanks to you I've been more efficient.
THIS was better than my EMPLOYER WHo doesn't teach us ANYTHING!!!
THANK YOU!! 🙏
You did a great job, Kevin! My university has just jumped on the bandwagon. We're figuring out best practices for possible reopening in the fall. I'm not very technologically proficient, so you really helped a lot.
I have the following questions: 1) For teaching online, do my students have to purchase the teams software 2) Can you post pictures on the whiteboard? and 3) Is the whiteboard interactive for use by both the instructor and the students?
Rick - am smart 77 yr old attorney honing my WFH tech skills. Your presentations would be much easier for a beginner to follow (= user friendly) if the cursor was embedded in a 1-1.5" shadowed circle, as I saw in one of your previous presentations. Otherwise, you are very smart, often effective, and a credit to your organization. Frank Seiler, Esq.
Thanks for the feedback! More recent videos have this improvement. Here's a more recent video on Teams: ruclips.net/video/VDDPoYOQYfM/видео.html
when the world needed him, he was there
Great video. 2 questions. 1- how many people can this handle... I have a presentation to do with 50 people... would that be too many for teams? 2- How does a conference room with a Cisco VTC dial into a Teams meeting?
nice work dear friend , like ur work and video , nice share ,complete watch
Your video was very helpful! Teams chats can generate a lot of useful information and the save feature can save specific replies. What are the best ways to search and keep track of past chat conversations using key words or phrases?
Hi, Loving your Teams videos!
When would you use
2 seperate Teams
- Biology 101 Class 1
- Biology 101 Class 2
Vs
1 Team & 2Channels
- Biology 101
-Private Channel for Classe 1
-Private Channel for Classe 2
Can you use all school functionalities in both cases?
It's so great to watch and listen to an instructional/informative presentation without filler words (ah, um, okay, like, you know...etc). It lets me know that the presenter knows his/her topic and can present well. Thank you for an excellent presentation.
Im getting into school next week and this vid is really helpful
Thanks so much for creating this video Kevin its my first intro to Teams and now I am not so overwhelmed.
A special thanks to Brandon for the timestamps, so I can go back and review once i have created some teams.
I would love a video that discusses the differences between a Team Site in Sharepoint vs a Team Site in Teams and when you would use SP vs Teams. I get confused between Sharepoint Groups, Teams, DL's, O365 Groups.
My background is: I am currently a SP On-Prem Admin who needs to install O365 and migrate to SP On-line and then I will become the O365 Global Admin and SP- Online Admin
Thank you, Kevin! 'm starting a new job and needed some Teams basics to boost my confidence. This was just what I needed!
Kevin, I am new to Teams. Watched this lesson and learned a lot about Teams' features. I am still trying look for a training video which shows how to use Teams instead of Zoom for one-off meetings with clients, preferably through browser instead of a client having to download an app. Incidentally, in your presentation, I noticed that Zoom was one of the Apps which can be integrated with Teams. I wonder why would anyone use Zoom if Teams offers the same screen sharing features.
Thanks for the tutorial, best video I have seen. Even better than our organisation tech department.
Very helpful! My office is switching from Skype to Teams in the beginning of April. I’m eager to embrace the functionality of Teams!
Best of luck!
I appreciate your enthusiasm and the love you put into this work of educating people. You are the best. Thank you.
Pakt
Kevin, this is an excellent introduction to MT. Succinct and well delivered - it is very clear. I have a question which is you may be able to help me with: is there anyway to pause a recording in MT? I would like to record a 60 minute talk but would obviously like to pause during the recording of the session.
you are such an awesome teacher,i didn't know jack about this software but am getting there now,thank you.
Excellent overview, Thank you. Speaks very fast and had to keep rewinding but by far the best I have seen.
Thank you Kevin for this video. It's my first time using Microsoft Teams and I really needed this.
Great video as always. One question, do you know have to move your video in a team's call from the bottom of the screen to the top?
Team is great 👍👍👍 great way to stay connected with coworkers in lockdown time
Really nice. It helps a lot.
I had one question that I went thru all of the video and didn’t find the answer. You talked a lot about team members, but what about clients of attendees? I know that you can record the presentation with MS TEAMS, but what about if we don’t want our conversation to be recorded. There is nothing on that subject.
If you edit your video for a new version, it will be helpful to others to know about that delicate subject.
Please continue with those high-quality videos of yours.
Thanks,
Very great video Mr Kevin Stratvert what you explain about Microsoft Teams in very simplest manner . From that video I learned about what is Microsoft Teams and it uses .
PART I. Hi... great video... I agree. How fortunate we are to have you, a Microsoft official person, guide us through!
Sorry to bother you and your viewers with lots of silly beginners questions but on Tuesday, I am starting to teach classes to my high school students from an alternative school and I am not aware yet of what I need to do. Initial questions: 1) There was a list of shortcuts, the first one being activity, -see what the other person has been doing? What exactly is this shortcut for? Can the administrators and service providers of my school could check how have I been spending my time in the last day of preparation? Can I as a simple teacher, check on anyone’s activities? 2) As we were doing Orientation and learning what was what, my classes were being created by IT and I was invited as a member…. Surprised that I wasn’t the owner and there were already 12 members in a class where I had not even post a hello… surprised me…. My question at this point would be: WHO WOULD BE ABLE TO READ THE POSTS? If the answer is all members and my students which I will sign up, then the question is the students could / will see the chat communication prior to me inserting their names into the classes? Or because they will join after the existing chats, they will not be able to read past POSTS? Also… could I delete all posts messages and just leave a welcoming message for my students and a note with what is what and how often my students will find….. and where they should find vocab… class notes….. assignments…. Etc. etc… ? (2b) Will my students see the posts? I 'm super new at this and others have already been added to what is suposed to be my class and service providerss, assistants, teachers have been added... tghere is some chat through post... when my classes begin I woudl like only to show PERTINENT POSTS FOR MY STUDNETS TO SEE LIKE A WELCOMING NOTE AND HOW TO NAVIGATE... WHERE WILL I BE POSTING WHAT... HOW OFTEN.. ETC... i
I appreciate how concisely Kevin covers this overview. Very helpful.
Kevin, is there a 365 application that is user-friendly for company workflows?
I really need to watch this because I don’t know how to use the app so I am not doing my work and my teachers are texting me,and I’m worried if I’m going to pass or not.
And only now that I see the comment of the reunions I realize I miss school(because these people are really funny)and know I’m going to spill the tea so I checked the conversation comments on the reunion(or whatever that is)and a girl got mad so she started typing cuss words(she’s the ghetto girl and she use to always get in trouble in school)and the school principal said “watch your language”,then the gg left the reunion,now I’m really interested to know what happened after
Getting back to topic,thank you for this video
Great video. Question I have. At my work place I have to setup meetings with 10-14 people on the fly frequently. These people are all in a team. Is there a way to send an invite through the calendar without typing all the names?
Kevin..great job...but I do have a doubt..when I am having a class in that is there any settings so that I can stay in center of the video so children can see me clearly..please recommend me..
Over 800K views but only 13K likes? This is a very informative video and obviously a used resource. Don't forget to like :)
Great video! We are currently using Skype for Business in our organization and will be transitioning to Teams in the next few months. Would you please let me know if you have any video or documentation on how to perform a task in Teams versus how you would have performed it in Skype for Business? We use SFB for IM, SFB meetings and call controls. I'd like to learn how to do a SFB tasks in Teams. Thanks
I don't have the answer to your question but if you are transitioning to Teams soon be sure to look for Microsoft Teams optimized headsets. They make all the difference when used with Teams!
