Ever wished your team had one central hub to meet, work, share and chat? Now they do! Introducing Microsoft Teams. You’ll learn about channels, chat, meetings, and more. Your team will be able to stay in the conversation at anytime, anywhere in the world. Built with the power of Microsoft Office 365 to improve your team’s collaboration and communication tools.

A channel for anything

Channels are how Microsoft Teams organizes conversations. You can set up your channels however you like – by topic, discipline, project or even just for fun! Channels are open to everyone on the team.

Chat the way you work

Everyone in the channel can see and join the conversation, but if you need to take it one-on-one, or chat in a smaller group then just select the people you want to talk to and start the chat. You can @mention to bring a conversation to people’s attention, and Like a comment or Flag to yourself for later.

Meetings in moments

You can start a voice or video call right from within the channel or private chat. Invite the whole team, or just those you need, to video call, share screen and collaborate. The call is visible in the chat history for people who missed it to see who joined and what was shared.

Stay in the conversation

The Microsoft Teams mobile app ensures that you can stay in touch no matter where you are. The iOS, Android and Windows Phone apps give you all the tools you need to stay part of the team, even when you're on the go. Download them from the App Store, Microsoft Store or Google Play.

Microsoft Teams is a workplace set up for you. People are different and so are the teams they participate in. Microsoft Teams allows you to set up your workspace your way, with the tools you need, and the freedom to express your personality.
