I think in today's business world you're either in google suite or in msft suite. For companies in msft suite, teams make thing extremely integrated and easy to use. I love it at my last company because everything was MS, the share drive, the word excel ppt, teams. But then I moved to a new company and got into a new product ecosystem and suddenly teams becomes really hard to be integrated into the workflow.

It is not a great product on Mac.... Heavy for your memory and I simply don't like the design.

@hhn Do you have an alternative recommendation?

@hhn Yeah Slack is great. When we started our company 9 months ago we also went for the Gsuite and we saw that it now includes Google Chat as well, which is a Slack clone but integrated into the rest, so we tried it out. Haven't regretted it so far!
