This is gonna sound like a troll post but i assure you it is not.
I don’t have a coding background but I’ve used Teams in a lot of workplaces and really only encountered like 2 issues entirely.
Either I got seriously lucky or it was before enshittification.
Why do you yourself dislike it? Is it UI? Performance?
I should also say I use Teams for basic purposes like messaging and uploading files, I literally don’t touch anything else and performance hadn’t been an issue. (Likely because I’ve been given thicc-ass workstations in the past)
It’s a mess for my team in terms of:
- someone’s video isn’t showing for anyone else
- someone can’t see anyone else’s video
- it resets my camera settings every time I restart it
- microphone settings seem to randomly break, so we always have people running off to grab backup headsets.
- it’s missing thread features (like in slack) so branching discussions are a fucking mess.
- most of my team uses Linux and the screen-sharing as well as file/picture sharing rarely works right.
Before we used a combination of Slack (for text communication) and Google Meet (for video) which was much more reliable a day functional.
It has some kind of Threads, but those don’t work for normal chats. It’s a different kind of chat. Not a great solution by teams imo
The screen sharing is also missing basic features every other video conferencing app has. A huge one is being able to share part of your screen. You can either share a window or an entire screen, but often I want to show multiple windows. I have a 21:9 5k2k screen, if I share my entire screen no one who is working from a laptop can see what I’m doing. Just let me share an area of the screen to share.
