It's always interesting to hear others experiences. I've used Teams for 4+ years now with zero issues until this morning. I'm only mad in that I tried troubleshooting my PC and network connection for far too long before seeing this thread.
Yeah, it's free. Somehow that's competitive, even though it forced Slack to sell up, but iPhone having a 20% global smartphone market share is anticompetitive.
Yeah it’s odd how that works, I have a similar experience with the appletv YouTube app people complain about and it led me to wondering how it ends up working out that way.
That being said in regards to teams, it might literally be the worst software I’ve ever used. It’s a major thorn in the productivity not just of myself, but everyone including the entire org of my client who mandates it. Like not a day goes by it doesn’t impact one or more meetings. It’s bizzare how tolerated it is when everyone involved has issues that leads to them disliking it.
I haven’t really had problems with it not working. Not more than other chat programs.
My main gripe is the “teams” chats having aggressively terrible UI in ways that make my work-life worse. Most of my complaints would go away if they let me make a teams chat that was a normal chat room.
Same here, hp switched to Teams a while back and it's been working great until today. Also think we should have gotten an alert earlier. I switched to my phone app, that kept working for a bit but now it's total blackout.
Yeah the biggest issue I've had with Teams is that I don't like the icon on the 'new' app. I guess we have enough glitches with starting screen shares (it's not frequent or a cause of extended disruptions, but it shouldn't ever happen either).
