It\u2019s essentially a unified communications platform which efficiently combines your workplace conversations, video meetings, file storage, and application integration.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">1. Organise your team\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Every project and sub-group can instantly breed another email chain, call notes, and host of meetings, which can get messy and\u00a0uncoordinated quickly. When files, emails, and calls are all happening on different platforms and being saved in different places, things can quickly become unmanageable.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft Teams can be used as a\u00a0centralised\u00a0repository for all project documentation and information. By simply incorporating and creating a Microsoft Teams channel as part of the project kick-off, this allows the Project Team to have the latest updates, messages, files, calls, and tasks on one\u00a0centralised\u00a0location accessible by all the Project Team members.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">2. Access whenever, wherever\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>As flexible and remote working becomes the new way of modern working, businesses are reliant on team\u00a0 members\u2019 \u00a0ability to access mobile business apps from their smartphones or tablets.\u00a0Whether, as an individual, you\u2019re working from the office, at home, or even your local coffee shop, you\u2019ll need the ability to access these business-critical applications.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft Teams has a mobile app which will keep you connected from anywhere. You\u2019ll have the ability to communicate, share, collaborate on files, and join conference calls, all from your smartphone \u00a0or tablet. No matter where you are, helping you stay connected with your team on the go. This is great when working across different geographical locations. Individual and conference calls can be completed without the need for other communication apps or using expensive mobile data plans.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">3. Stay in the know\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Gone are the days where you sat next to the same people 9 to 5, 5 days a week. Now there\u2019s a growing trend of home-based\/ remote working, where it can be challenging for employees to communicate effectively.\u00a0Microsoft Teams\u00a0can help you keep communication and collaboration channels clear. Whether you want to call someone, set up a video conference with your team or send a quick instant message, you\u2019ll have clear visibility of who\u2019s online and available for a chat. Microsoft Teams provides you with the communication tools you need all in one place.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">4. Vital information recall\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>It can be difficult to recall what you discussed in a meeting a few days ago \u2013 let alone weeks ago. As the project progresses, you\u2019ll have more files, conversations, and meetings building up in your\u00a0Microsoft Teams\u00a0channel. This can make it difficult for you to find the information you need from last month\u2019s call. But fear not,\u00a0Microsoft Teams\u00a0allows you to not only store all your data but also search for it with ease. Meaning, no more scrolling through email chains to find a conversation you had weeks ago!<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">5. Collaborate in real-time\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks to cloud technology, the days of sending document edits back and forth over email are gone. Microsoft Teams provides your project team with the opportunity to share documents and collaborate live with colleagues. Allowing you to edit, review, and comment on any document in real-time. Everyone can access the document in which you will be able to watch changes in real-time as you work together, this effectively means the team can collaborate in real-time. No matter where they are.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 40px; border-bottom: 1px solid #f16020;\">6. Focus on what matters\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re creating a channel for every project you\u2019re working on, then\u00a0Microsoft Teams\u00a0can get busy quite quickly, <span>which is why it\u2019s important for you to focus on what truly matters<\/span>.\u00a0 Not every message or file sent in your project channel will be relevant for you.\u00a0 Microsoft Teams allows you to filter out the noise. You can simply filter by personal mentions or responses to your message in the activity feed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>These are my top tips to harness the power of Microsoft Teams for effective collaborative working within\u00a0 projects.\u00a0 However, Microsoft Teams can help in a variety of businesses and departments to become more collaborative and work closely together.\u00a0 Whether you\u2019re looking to find out more about Microsoft Teams or are ready to start a full Microsoft Teams migration, Insentra has experienced Modern Workplace experts to help.
