WHAT IS TEAMS?

Microsoft teams is a hub - an app that helps you pull together a team.
 Work together using chat instead of email. Channels instead of
folders.
 It's a workspace for you and your team

 Teams can securely edit files at the same time

 See likes at mentions and replies with just a single tap - it's a place
that your team can make its own by adding notes websites and apps
 Because it's in the cloud it let's everyone work together no matter
where they are
