cframe does the meeting originator need to install this app? The linked article doesn't explain how it works, but merely gives an example of what it does.

Just from reading the description and a couple of - very brief - third party reviews, I think it *only* works for the presenter. I don't see any mention of ability to annotate when someone else is presenting. It's just a way of drawing on your own screen, which if you are sharing your screen would happen to be viewable by the audience.I realize it's probably not helpful, but if you have Slack available as an alternate medium, that might also be an option for technical discussions.
- Slack is not an alternative to Teams. Engineers, architects and designers need to have live, video discussions over drawings. Microsoft should look at Webex and Zoom, where one can draw over whatever is being shared by the presenter. It seems so simple, but Microsoft still hasn't figured it out
- Just to be clear, I was referring to the live video call and screenshare functionality of Slack, which also has the "users can draw on the presenter's shared documents/code" feature. In any case, many organizations have chosen to make Teams mandatory for video calls, so for those users there simply is no alternative.
