Maybe you just don't have a reasonable comparison. We just switched from Slack and Zoom to Teams and it has significantly impacted our ability to collaborate and communicate. It's constantly dropping calls, video quality is awful, annotation is awful, the layout is wasteful with tons of wasted space, audio is terrible, there's no closed captioning visible while screen sharing, there are too many problems to list. It's the type of product I'd expect from a high school programming class, not a trillion dollar company.
As an outsider to a lot of such corporate things it sounds like they both suck a lot, just in different ways.
I never had any issues with Zoom or Slack. They do what they're supposed to do. Jira is fine too, but I'm not a PM, so I don't have to deal with anything other than the Kanban board.
Edit: I guess it's relevant that I'm on a MacBook Pro, and not a Windows machine.
I have none of these issues with Teams. Maybe your internet connection sucks?
I have gigabit internet. It doesn't suck for anything except Teams.
