Microsoft Under Pressure to Improve Teams Video to Stop Customers Going to Zoom

 

Although Teams has seen a spike in usage due to more people working at home, the view of participants in Teams video meetings is not as good as competitors such as Zoom. Basically, the 2 x 2 view used by Teams isn't as visually attractive or useful as the gallery views supported by other video conferencing systems. Microsoft says they have elevated the priority of the work necessary to increase the number of participants in the meeting window. They don't say when this will happen.

    Yes TonyRedmond , it's what I'm hearing from my users. Also things like live events and registration is starting to become an issue. No way to keep track of people watching the event.

    • DaithiG  Better video analytics in Teams and Stream (when people watch the recordings of meetings) would be much appreciated.
