Microsoft Teams is a product that already before the pandemic started to gain popularity and, during, helped employees communicate and collaborate in their new remote offices. There are precursors to Teams - in Microsoft's portfolio, Skype for Business was retired last year, and after that, the increase of Teams users have been skyrocketing. Why Teams differ from some of the other communication alternatives is the many functions of teams that allow for much more than a chat, call, or virtual meeting.
