1. Chat for today’s teams
Microsoft Teams provides a modern conversation experience for
today’s teams. Microsoft Teams supports not only persistent but
also threaded chats to keep everyone engaged. Team conversations
are, by default, visible to the entire team, but there is of course the
ability for private discussions. Skype for business is deeply integrat-
ed, so teams can participate in voice and video conferences and
everyone can add personality to their digital workspace with emoji,
stickers, GIFs and custom memes to make it their own.
Microsoft Teams brings together the full breadth and depth of Office 365 to provide a true
hub for teamwork. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint, OneNote, Planner, Power BI and
Delve are all built into Microsoft Teams so users have all the information and tools they
need at their fingertips. Backed by the Microsoft Graph, intelligent services are surfaced
throughout the workspace to help with information relevancy, discovery and sharing.
Microsoft Teams is also built on Office 365 Groups — our cross-application membership
service that makes it easy for people to move naturally from one collaboration tool to
another, preserve their sense of context and share with others.
