> Teams has its issues, but compared to skype its amazing in my opinion. Granted, skype is a pretty low bar to compare with, but still.

Yeah, it's amazing that such an aborted thing ever seen the day of life. Skype looks like a windows program. Team looks like an Android game.

About corporate: Skype can do a 250 people meeting, Teams can do only 100.

It is like in the old M$ joke: How wonderful it's gonna be when they will get it.

> At my last company, Teams was introduced as a tool besides skype - and everyone was encouraged to move meetings etc. whenever possible over to Teams. It worked out pretty well, after a few months skype meetings became the exception, almost everything, especially if only techies were included, was happening on Teams.

In my company people preffer Skype.

> I recommend to give it a serious try, some of it features do suck (notification settings etc. are absolutely horrendous and seem to not properly work half the time) but overall it improved the ways people communicated a lot compared to skype. At least that was my experience :)

It is a piece of crap. The only "feature" above skype is that it has these groups. From an UI point of view is a piece of crap. Who was the idiot that conceived such a crappy interface ? When i start a new chat i want a new chat not to see my last chat with someone else.
