Teams is an iceberg. When you look at an iceberg from a boat you only see what’s above the water. With Teams what you see is a simple looking chat interface that many see as the successor to Skype. It’s so much more than that. Like an iceberg, you’re only seeing what’s above the water, those items that are absolutely visible like chat, meeting, and calling capabilities.
You may even be aware that Teams supports storing files in SharePoint, but the collaboration bucket and the road map to the enterprise digital workplace has many other features. Rough estimates suggest there are over 1500 people working on Microsoft Teams. This is not just a simple chat app, this is a significant investment in the future of modern work.
Those comparing Microsoft Teams to WebEx Teams definitely are off their rocker, but even those who may say it was a copy cat for Slack are not understanding the monolithic efforts at Enterprise Collaboration 3.0 that are going on. It could be said that Teams is the flagship product leading Microsoft’s efforts in Digital Transformation more than Azure, SharePoint, Flow, PowerApps and beyond.
Even if you are now using Teams in a limited way, I challenge you to understand a bigger vision for Microsoft Teams. There’s productivity and digital transformation inside if you know how to unlock it.
