Hi Steve_Stein
Quite long set of features again.. 🙂
Few remarks from those:
"Teams Premium is more personalized, more intelligent, and more protected"
Somehow I'm wishing to see that you are not selling Teams Premium from the security reasons. I believe, all of your customers wishing to be protected without extra costs.
As we all have seen, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a burning topics and it is coming in from all the doors, windows, and Teams. The way how do you use AI in Teams, could you please share some detailed information of that. What end user data is stored in where when AI is used, how much of our own data is used as a reference for the AI, how is the GDPR take care, etc..
On Teams there has been already a long time a "popup" possibility on the chats. But, that seems to be limited to the P2P chat's only. Have you forgot the group chats from this, or are there some other reasons to why it is not possible for group chats.
Great to have "Mention everyone" on the chats, but have you though about supporting other languages than English only? I can use "everyone" with the local language, but then Teams translate text to English term. Would be nice to have it in local language on the chat as well.
Have you ever tested four fingers pray (Shift + Ctrl + Alt + 1) to get logs and having the following feature enabled (always ask where to save downloaded files😞
Issue 1: There might be some improvements of how many times you are asking the location
Issue 2: The "MSTeams Diagnostics Log" folders are still stored under Downloads folder and does not respect this setting.
Instead of "Ability for Teams users to manage their third-party app. . ." you should give us the possibility to block those 3rd party apps from the Teams store. This was earlier possible, that when app was blocked on the Admin Center that app was not visible on the store. But then - I have some expectation why - you suddenly break this and now all apps are visible and the setting block means "nothing".
What is new in Teams page, you are still not having plans to keep this updated?
Any hopes to get the Monospace Rich Style fixed in the chats:
to be working like on the channels:
Of course not sure if these have anymore any reason to share as Teams v2 seems to become closer and closer. Any news to be sharing about that?
