Beats WebEx. I contracted at Cisco after they had bought WebEx and the dev teams had to stagger their scrums in the morning because WebEx infra couldn't support all the meetings at once.

    Beats Skype for Business too, which was Microsoft's previous offering. And it was BAD.

    What? Skype was waay better than Teams! It only started turning into dogshit when Microsoft acquired it.

    **Edit: Skype, not "Skype For Business", as others pointed out.

    Skype for Business was not Skype. It was the rebranded Office Communicator, which Microsoft started calling Skype for Business after acquiring Skype.

    It was basically a bad clone of MSN Messenger.

    Actually we just finished our switch from Skype to Teams and honestly, as much as I love having GIFs to express my disdain for work, at least Skype could group chats, didn't require all the RAM in the world, and automatically saved chats which, in a records management hellscape was an absolute lifesaver. Also my headphones would automatically answer a call when I put them on my head but I have a feeling that has more to do with the settings than anything else.

    Also I'm tired of having to tell people "no we can't do that because Microsoft hasn't integrated that very valuable and highly requested feature you're asking for"
