Nothing but hate for the chat/collaboration features…
Big companies where IT is considered a cost center and day-to-day users have no say in their tools will be using Teams, partly because they have no choice but also because for a lot of them the standard is already Windows and "Skype For Business" and they legitimately don't know how much better other tools are.
In smaller companies where day-to-day users have a say in their tools, Teams would absolutely not fly, especially when said users most likely have experience with better tools such as Slack.
Yeah, Teams is the worst of them in every dimension.
Atlassian (Confluence/JIRA) otherwise.
Sorry about Jira. :)
Zoom's ugly as hell, but the Linux client has long been fairly reliable. Teams meanwhile is plagued by issues that don't seem to affect some other Electron-based apps or Chromium. During meetings it'll start out fine, then a minute in it'll suddenly use microphone. Opening any settings views tends to knock audio out of working state, too. Their official forums are full of threads on this, and support people suggesting crazy mitigations such as running it as root (admin user).
The most recent release seems to be from September 2021, which is positively ancient for something based on a browser engine and using it to display complex content from remote hosts.
Then again Microsoft sites don't seem to work with security keys in Firefox either.
On MacOS it behaves pretty ok. Once you get used to the weird double text box.
