The recent Covid pandemic that has spread all around the world has affected the big and small equally, bringing massive changes to the lifestyles of many people, be it in their professional or personal life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social distancing that has become a norm to ensure the safety of people has made it impossible for people to connect with their loved ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The situation has made it difficult for students to enjoy their classes with their friends in the same room and complicated business relations for colleagues to join in a discussion regarding their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to keep in contact with fellow colleagues or family members, applications that allow video conferencing in real-time are being used widely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, the majority of the population is finally experiencing the full potential and practicality of video conferencing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s their first time or they may have used it less frequently to contact people in faraway places during their recreational time, video calls are the vision of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft Teams<\/strong> is now one of these widely used video collaboration apps as it allows not only video conferencing but also provides cloud-based storage which can be especially useful for education and work purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, Microsoft Teams<\/strong>\u2019 usage was limited only to education and business settings only, but now due to the increased usage, Microsoft Teams has been extended to personal users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The features provided by Teams are endless. Let\u2019s now go through these to see what makes Microsoft Teams unique from others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Microsoft Teams?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft Teams<\/strong> is a communication application that is a division of Microsoft 365<\/strong>, previously known as Office 365.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft 365<\/strong> is an office application that natively integrates with other Microsoft services like Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Excel, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a widely used application by business enterprises and educational institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft Teams is a hub that concentrates on teamwork. It is an application that helps you communicate with your team members through a chat system rather than an email, making it quicker to communicate with questions and replies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the currently updated Microsoft Teams allows the team members to connect through video calls, helping them multi-task such as editing a file at the same time and creating separate channels for different projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
