Microsoft Teams is a powerful collaboration and communication platform that enables teams to work together in real time from anywhere. It provides a range of tools and features to help teams stay connected and productive, including chat, audio, and video calls, file sharing, and much more. Chat and CallsOne of the core features of Microsoft Teams is the ability to communicate with other members of your team through chat and calls. Teams offers both one-to-one and group chat options, as well as the ability to make audio and video calls. You can also schedule and join online meetings directly from Teams, complete with screen sharing and recording capabilities.

You can upload and share files directly in a chat or channel, and other team members can provide feedback, add comments, and make edits in real time.

App IntegrationsOne of the key strengths of Microsoft Teams is its ability to integrate with a range of other apps and services, such as the Office365 suite, Microsoft Whiteboard, and more. This allows teams to extend the functionality of Teams and streamline their workflow.

Q: Can I invite non-OTC accounts to a meeting in Teams?
A: Yes, you can. Simply send the non-OTC email a link to your meeting, and they will be able to join it. Unlike OTC accounts, however, you will need to admit this third-party account into your meeting via the Participants menu. OTC accounts do not need to be admitted and join meetings automatically, provided they are logged in with their OTC account.
