Collaboration made easy

Microsoft Teams

Whether you're making calls from multiple devices, sharing documents, collaborating on files, or hosting video meetings, Teams is the platform where everything happens.

No matter what task needs to be done

Teams is the platform for everyday work

A modern workplace has an enormous impact on the productivity of every employee in an organization. No other tool brings these benefits together in a single app the way Microsoft Teams does. It enables modern communication and collaboration across the entire organization, whether you're at a desktop in the office or on a tablet at home. What matters is reliable, secure access to all the information you need to get work done every day. Documents can be shared securely, edited collaboratively, annotated easily, and organized clearly. Group chats, meetings, and calls support direct, personal exchange. But Teams goes further than that: it becomes the platform for daily work, whatever the task at hand. You can draw on a wide range of ready-made Konnektoren and collaboration apps, or build and integrate custom solutions of your own.

Online meetings

Online meetings can be scheduled or started ad-hoc. They can be set either directly via Teams or via Outlook. Participants in a channel can always see that a meeting is currently taking place and participate in it. Meetings can be recorded and later made available to other users directly on Microsoft Streams. Real-time captioning in meetings gives all participants the ability to accommodate individual listening and language skills.

Webinars

You can now use Teams to organize and run interactive meetings and webinars for up to 1,000 attendees. Take advantage of end-to-end webinar support that's just as straightforward as setting up a Teams meeting, including custom registration pages and attendee emails, a choice of presentation formats, moderator options such as the ability to disable attendee chat and video, and post-event reports to track attendance and follow up with participants.

Calling

Microsoft Teams supports Voice over IP calls between Teams clients out of the box. With the Phone System license, which is included in the Office 365 E5 plan or can be added as an add-on, Teams becomes a full-featured PBX. Microsoft's Calling Plans provide the phone numbers needed to make, receive, and forward calls to and from landlines and mobile phones on the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Alternatively, Direct Routing lets you connect your existing PSTN connection to Microsoft Teams via a Session Border Controller (SBC).

Collaboration

Microsoft Teams promotes better team collaboration through its chat-based workspace. Integrated search and seamless access to SharePoint, OneNote and Planner mean every team member can find what they need right away. Every document shared in Microsoft Teams is stored in the cloud, so the current version is always available. The @mention function lets you address individual people or entire teams directly. In addition to team and group chats, one-to-one communication is also available.

Privacy and Security

The security and compliance capabilities built into Microsoft Teams are complemented by Microsoft Security to protect your data and privacy and to meet regulatory requirements. You retain control over your data and can access, modify, or delete it at any time. Microsoft uses your data only with your consent and solely to deliver the services you have subscribed to. Microsoft also commits to complying with broadly applicable data protection laws such as the GDPR and standards such as ISO/IEC 27018, the first international code of practice for privacy in the cloud.
