Meetings and digital communications are meant to unite your teams to get the job done. You’ll be able to engage in collaborative and inclusive Teams Meetings remotely from home, in the office, or during transit with screensharing and custom backgrounds. Chat with co-workers and access files to comment feedback and make changes on the go when you need extra flexibility in your workday. With the mobile app, Teams is at your fingertips and available on Mac, iOS, and Android devices to drive efficiency and productivity. Even when your team is spread across the globe, you can still operate with threaded, persistent, and contextual chat across 53 languages and 181 markets. Teams can even replace a phone system by adding Teams Business Voice, saving you additional costs on international calling and data roaming. Humanize the workspace with gifs, stickers, emojis and enjoy ‘together mode’ to digitally sit in a shared background, making it feel like you’re sitting in the same room with your team.

Teams has become the fastest-growing business application in Microsoft history because it enables greater productivity as a digital workspace platform. Bring your collaboration goals to life with the familiar Office application suite such as Outlook, SharePoint, OneNote, Power BI, and Planner for hands-on co-authoring and speedy file-sharing. You can further customize this extensible platform to build apps and your personalized ribbon of productivity, directly from the Windows App Store such as Trello for project management, Polly for polling, and Whiteboard for design thinking. Or if you need further customization, a full suite of development tools will allow your teams to automate tasks and build custom apps. So, whether you are using the popular productivity applications or configuring your own application for tailored needs, your organization’s team channels will be equipped to split up the work between groups and schedule meetings to stay on top of collaboration.

More and more employees are using a wide range of free solutions and while performing remote digital work, which introduces a greater level of data vulnerability to breaches, phishing attacks, and privacy issues.

Teams Live Events is a feature of Microsoft Teams that broadcasts video and meeting content to large online audiences, adding function and size. While Teams Meetings are meant for collaboration, screen-sharing, and small group interaction, Live Events serves one-to-many communications best, where a host is leading and attendees are participating and/or viewing the host’s content. Take control of managing the details of the entire event beginning with scheduling with appropriate attendee permissions, designate meeting roles, select a production method, and generate attendee invitations. Attendees can watch the live or recorded event in Yammer, Teams, and/or Stream and can interact with the presenters using moderated voice Q & A or the chat conversation. Live captioning is also available and can be translated into six other languages from the presenter’s language. Once the event closes, you’ll be able to have a full record of attendees to send customer journey follow-ups straight from the Dynamics 365 marketing platform.
