Well that was a mic drop response. 😳
Comment on How/why does Microsoft teams exist?
IWW4@lemmy.zip 3 days agoYes…
I have used it daily for at least six years.
Overlayed on that is I have used WebEx for about 15 years, hell maybe 20 years.
I agree that it has UI has issues, so does Webex, so does Zoom… hell Skype had its issues as well.
There is a lot about teams I don’t like, but that is every collaboration tool I have ever used.
Truth be had the only collaboration tool I have ever been satiated with is the tool my university used back in 2000, but that probably had more to do with not having to drive to class.

Maybe the real issue is the idea of a “collaboration tool”. You could argue the only such ambitious tools I’ve tried are lotus notes and Microsoft Teams, and both were horrible: lots of services but in an ugly ui with poor usability. Teams and unreliable phone and notes didn’t have it at all.
It’s much better dealing with a set of tools containing better implementations of the feature you want. Maybe it’s just not useful trying to cram that much functionality into one tool.
And yes I’ll name names, I currently get much better results from

You are absolutely correct. That they aer bundling the different software is why it will lack.
If a tool bundles up 10 components and then you poll ten people all they have to do is not like one of those components for the whole bundle to lack.
