Pros

“Users appreciate the integration of various communication tools like voice calls, video conferencing, live chat, and messaging into a single platform.”
BC

Bien C.

Systems and Service Operation Analyst

“The ability to route calls from a central switchboard to individual desktops make this software very useful in our remote working office set up.”
KL

Kristan L.

Architect

“Unlike other VoIP / SIP based systems, to connect physical phones to 3CX you need to either have one of their phones that acts as an SBC or you need to set up an SBC in a small Linux VM.”
Dd

Dennis d.

Business Owner

Pros

“The video conferencing functionality is reliable and includes useful features such as screen sharing, meeting recordings, live captions, and background effects.”

Ashley G.

HR Manager

“Its tight connection with Microsoft 365 makes collaboration feel natural — documents open instantly, multiple people can edit at once, and everything stays synced across Outlook, OneDrive, and SharePoint.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Keely F.

Patient Care Coordinator

“Overall, Microsoft Teams remains an effective and versatile collaboration tool that enhances communication, teamwork, and operational efficiency. When combined with complementary project management applications, it can provide an even more comprehensive solution for managing projects and supporting organizational success.”

Cons

“The only drawback I noticed the phone calls quality on the app is not up to mark and sometimes drops.”
MM

Mohammed M.

Project manager

“Have had some issues with bugs in the past and it can be difficult to contact the support team and get them resolved”
LP

Luke P.

Head of Support

“However, have had a few bugs with it”
LP

Luke P.

Head of Support

Cons

When I have set up Teams meetings via teams (instead of via Outlook) there is a glitch that occurs - the meeting reminder that I set automatically changes to “no reminder” after I create the meeting so meeting attendees do not receive a 15 reminder before the meeting starts.
Verified reviewer profile picture

Kari J.

Internal Auditor

“Teams can be hard to navigate around to find niche settings or features, including uploaded files - without a preview feature, or a decent filter, it can be easy to lose track of spreadsheets, documents, and images. When there is a lot of communication going on, it can get messy.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Maria P.

Accessories Designer

“In some cases, too many clicks are required to get to what I need; for example, getting to chats and files. When you are also working in multiple teams it can be quite overwhelming with the notifications, and it would be nice to have more control to lend what is most important.”
