Microsoft Teams CMS
Hello,
I would like to gather your suggestions about Content Management System for MS Teams. We are looking for CMS that is integrated with Teams ( SP of course ) and Office Products, primarily Word, Outlook, Power Point and Excel. I have looked at Repstor and Macroview DMF. Is anyone using them ? Any pros and cons? Are there any other CMS / DMS on the marked that you are using ? Googling brings up a ton of garbage. TIA

SharePoint is both a CMS and a DMS which is part of Microsoft 365 and underlies Microsoft Teams. It should be included in what you pay for (if you are paying for the business or enterprise version of Microsoft 365 as opposed to Teams Free). Teams is built on top of SharePoint and so their is native integration and it is designed to work together. When Teams was first released it had quite basic integration but over time this has become a lot richer and tighter. Here is two good articles on the subject

I can't recommend SharePoint Online enough. If you look for third parties then you would struggle, but also end up paying significantly more, have to deal with two vendors and they would not work natively together.
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris
