In February, Microsoft Teams launched several new updates that can enhance your workday. Here are some of the latest features that might be of interest to those using SharePoint and Microsoft Teams.
Chat and Collaboration
One of the major updates is the ability to add agents or bots to Teams chats. This can save time by automating responses to questions and handling routine tasks. You can easily add a bot to a 1:1 or group chat and interact directly from there. Another handy feature is the ability to schedule messages in channels. Now you can decide exactly when a message should be sent, which is particularly useful for coordinating across different time zones.
Meetings and Events
For those using Teams Webinar and Town Hall, there is now the ability to connect a Teams Room as a presenter to an event. This allows for the management of an event directly from a meeting room. Additionally, there is now an intelligent meeting recap available, providing AI-generated meeting notes and tasks based on recordings.
Customized Notifications
A smaller yet useful update is that you can now customize the location of your notifications on the screen. You can choose from different corners of the screen to ensure your notifications are both practical and discreet.
Improvements in Teams Rooms
For users of Teams Rooms on Windows, there is now the capability to present directly from the room during an event. This can facilitate those who often work from different meeting rooms.
