Everything about Microsoft
My friend took a look at Microsoft Teams and how it compares to Yammer and Slack
A first look at Microsoft Teams and how it compares to Yammer and Slack
Microsoft wanted to buy Slack, but that did not work out, and Microsoft developed its own social enterprise chat solution, called Microsoft Teams. Microsoft's tagline for this new product is "a chat-based workspace in Office 365." As I am a user of both Slack and Yammer, I activated Teams right after the announcement of the product by Microsoft in New York last week.

It's a very nice article! So what's your own opinion about it?
I played with it for a short amount of time. I didn't like the setup process. Slack is so quick to get started with, making it easy to choose for small projects without some static organization behind them. For actual companies Microsoft Teams seems like the better solution. It can be centrally managed, doesn't really add overhead if they already work with Microsoft services and offers deep integration with other Microsoft tools.
I probably won't use it myself because as a freelancer I need to be able to easily invite and kick out people. MS Teams doesn't offer this yet. I use slack for some projects.
Teams is an important product for Microsoft because it shows they understand how communication changes and try to offer the right tools for it to their customers.
