Microsoft is unveiling a fresh version of Teams, its video conferencing, collaboration, and chat platform, promising a speedier and more seamless work experience—a welcome change, eh?
This revamped Teams emerges as the superhero of apps for both Windows and Mac, boasting a speed that rivals a bullet, at least twice as swift as its classic counterpart. What's more, it's on a diet, utilizing up to 50% less memory and disk space.
Microsoft took a step back to reimagine and simplify Teams, making it more flexible. The result? Teams now plays more harmoniously with third-party apps, is happier dialing phones outside of its realm, and gets you into meetings faster than you can say "not another meeting."
This upgraded Teams utilizes cutting-edge tech to share resources with your browser, effectively reducing its memory and disk space requirements. Test results show Teams is now twice as quick in loading the app, joining meetings, and switching between chats and channels.
And here's the kicker—not only is this enhancement exclusive to Windows; Teams on Mac is also basking in this performance boost.
Microsoft assures that this update is a game-changer for your productivity. They've enhanced the user interface, introducing a "mark all as read" feature in activity.
But that's not all—say hello to Copilot, an AI assistant embedded in Teams, capable of summarizing key points from your chats and calls. It's like having your personal assistant, minus the coffee runs.
Ready to make the switch to the new and improved Teams? It's rolling out now. Check the top left corner of your Teams app—spot "try the new Teams," and you can easily make the transition.
