Pros

“The swap shifts save literally hours of my life. If teachers want to swap classes, they do so themselves within the app.”
BK

Blerta K.

Language Instructor

“Sling has been great. While there are some limitations on how we can schedule, the information we can apply, and reports being minimal, it's a great scheduling tool.”
KM

Kylee M.

Event and Destination Manager

“Overall, the price is good for the service we receive, but I wish we had more education specific features such as knowing which instructor was teaching the language level we were at.”
BK

Blerta K.

Language Instructor

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.”

Cyrene J.

Property Administrator

Cons

“I didn’t dislike anything feature wise, but rather had issues with reliability for notifications coming through to mobile devices or the app not loading chat messages.”
BA

Brendan A.

President

“The only thing I find annoying is that employees are sorted by first name only--and I can't adjust to sort by last name.”
LA

Lauren A.

Administrator

“This could be remedied by turning off notifications during this period of time, however this made it a risk for forgetting to turn notifications back on and missing important future communication.”
BJ

Britta J.

Media Producer

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.”
