Quick Update Microsoft Teams has some new tricks!
Quick Update Microsoft Teams has some new tricks!
Remember when Microsoft Teams came out and I made a bold statement that eventually, we would see all of the features of SfB make their way to Teams. Well, we are a few more steps closer.
What�s New
Compose Box
First, the compose box has gotten a fresh new look. Now instead of trying to find everything (attach, GIF, etc) under one button now each has their own.
This just makes the compose process a lot easier to find features.
Call Transfer/Hold
Yep, you read that right. Microsoft Teams can now put calls on hold and transfer them to another user.
Here we can see a call in-progress and I have the ability to hold and transfer. If I click the Transfer button we get a list of folks that are at the top of your chat window along with the ability to search for more people.
It�s a blind transfer although you could do what we do in SfB and simply �chat� with the person you want to transfer it to before you do that.
Other Stuff
Presence is fixed, so you will no longer go to yellow away when your mouse isn�t active within the app (i.e. background app works) and now you can have up to 999 users in a Team.
So more features make their way over to the newest calling/conferencing/chat tool from Microsoft. I�m hanging to my prediction.
