Others include Polly.ai, Meekan, Workato, Statsbot, Careerlark, Hipmunk, Zapier, Zoom.ai, Growbot, and Busybot. When Microsoft Teams becomes generally available, it will have more than 150 integrations, including Asana, Hootsuite, Intercom, and Zendesk, Koenigsbauer wrote. The service is integrated with Microsoft’s Bot Framework.
One of Slack’s hallmark features, bots, will also be part of Microsoft Teams. It’s interesting to recall that Microsoft once considered acquiring Slack for as much as $8 billion, TechCrunch reported earlier this year, citing an unnamed source. “We’re genuinely excited to have some competition,” Slack says. Slack is firing back today with a full-page New York Times ad containing a letter to Microsoft. Until this point, Yammer was Microsoft’s obvious team communication tool that most directly competes with Slack, but after almost three years of Slack growth, Microsoft is now shooting more directly at the San Francisco startup. The app is “designed to facilitate real-time conversations and collaborations while maintaining and building up that institutional knowledge of a team,” Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella said at today’s event.Īfter waxing poetic about the way that teams of athletes and musicians work together, Nadella presented Microsoft Teams in the context of other collaboration tools, including Yammer, Skype for Business, and Groups in Outlook, not to mention SharePoint. Threaded conversations, which Slack sorely lacks, are include in Microsoft Teams. It features channels/groups, private messages, Skype video and audio calls, Office 365 integration (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files), OneDrive support, Power BI and Planner integrations, as well as emoji, giphy images, memes, and so on.
Microsoft Teams is a web-based chat service aimed at businesses and schools that have multiple teams working on various projects at once.
