We\u2019re being promised a faster and easier way to work. And we all could use a bit of that, couldn\u2019t we?<\/p>\n<p>The new Teams is like the superhero of apps for Windows and Mac. It\u2019s faster than a speeding bullet\u2026 well, at least twice as fast as the classic version. Plus, it\u2019s on a diet, using up to 50% less memory and disk space.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft went back to the drawing board to reimagine it, make it simpler and more flexible. Now Teams:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plays better with third-party apps<\/li>\n<li>Is happier calling phones outside of Teams<\/li>\n<li>Gets you into meetings quicker than you can say \u201cnot another meeting\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This pumped-up version of Teams uses some tech which allows it to share resources with your browser. That reduces how much memory and disk space it needs.<\/p>\n<p>And the initial test results? Teams is twice as quick when loading the app, joining meetings, and switching chats and channels.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t just for businesses using Windows. Teams on Mac is also getting this performance boost.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft promises this update will be a game-changer for your productivity. They\u2019ve improved the user interface, adding in a \u201cmark all as read\u201d feature in activity.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, they\u2019re introducing Copilot, an AI assistant that can summarize key points from your chats and calls. Sort of like having your very own personal assistant, just without the coffee runs.<\/p>\n<p>Are you ready to switch to the new and improved Teams? It\u2019s rolling out now. Look at the top left corner of your Teams app\u2026 if you see \u201ctry the new Teams\u201d, then you can flick the switch and try it out.<\/p>\n<p>If you need help with Teams for your business, get in touch with us.<\/p>\n<p>dmaldet@cmitsolutions.com<\/p>\n<p>614-655-8558<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft is rolling out a brand-new version of Teams, its video conference,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":97,"featured_media":653,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-652","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-it"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/97"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=652"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=652"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=652"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmitsolutions.com\/columbus-oh-1051\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
