Super-dooper features

  • create live and on-demand events with speaker timeline, speech-2-text transciption, transcript search and captions
  • workplace analytics
  • shared digital canvas with Microsoft Whiteboard

Lots of more features will come, i am sure. But there is also a big part with apps for business logic which can be integrated into the flow of Teams and of course things like forms, PowerApps and Flow.

My favorite is the normal collaboration but pretty cool that it is all-in-one with chat, files, meetings – really great!
