Microsoft is trying aggressively to destroy both Zoom and Slack by pushing Teams as “free” (i.e. “Look, it’s already included in your Office 365 plan!”).
Teams video is… fine (other than the awful UX) which is a death knell for Zoom… but for everything else it is HORRIBLE. As a communication and collaboration platform, Teams is productivity and efficiency cyanide. It is just so badly designed and organized. It’s a mess.
But companies will switch anyway, because it’s “cheaper”… consequences be damned.

Curious – not saying it’s great, but I don’t think the Zoom UX is much better, personally. What bothers you about Teams, if I might ask?
Agree. Zoom chat is unusable IMO.
Yeah, particularly chat in a meeting, it feels so barebones.
