Discover the power of Microsoft Teams with this intuitive and timely new guide
Microsoft Teams is unlocking the potential of remote work and virtual meetings at a time when they couldn’t be more necessary. Its feature-rich interface and ease-of-use promise to bring your team together—as long as you can harness its full suite of capabilities.

- Realize the key benefits of Teams by using its messaging and video-conferencing capabilities to stay connected with your colleagues
- Manage multiple teams and channels to use Teams across your organization
- Extend the functionality of Teams by using additional apps and add-ons
