Big news for Microsoft Teams users! 🎉 Microsoft announced updates to the chat and channels experience in Teams for November and we've been having a good old playaround with the new features. Overall we're in agreement that, although it's a big visual change, it’s all about making collaboration faster, more intuitive, and (dare I say) enjoyable! Here's the main points... The new Microsoft Teams Chat and Channels Experience introduces: ✅ Streamlined channel navigation for clearer conversations ✅ A revamped, user-friendly design for improved focus ✅ Features that make it easier to track the latest updates without losing context For businesses navigating hybrid work or fostering collaboration across teams, this is a game-changer. It aligns perfectly with the productivity + simplicity ethos we all need from our digital tools. We're particularly excited about how this update will help frontline workers, facilities management teams, and SMEs who rely on real-time communication to stay organised and connected.

The biggest change in Microsoft Teams history. Get ready for a major shift in how you use Microsoft Teams.

New chat and channels experience designed to help you collaborate more efficiently and effectively in the hybrid AI-infused workplace. Simplified Navigation: A single "Chat" sidebar icon will access both chats and teams/channels. Flexible Organization: Create custom sections and favorites for easy management. Improved Focus: New filters for unread messages, chats, channels, meetings, and muted conversations. Enhanced Mentions: A dedicated @mention view for quick access to all mentions.

Is this the largest change in Teams since it launched in 2017? Is Teams the one app to rule them all?! Teams continues to evolve with your feedback to help us improve how we organize and prioritize communication and collaboration. Microsoft rolled out a new Chat and Channels experience in Teams that will create more efficiencies in your day-to-day workstream. ✅ All your conversations will be in one place ✅ Smart filters will help you focus on what matters. ✨ Bonus: customize your workspace and organize chats and channels exactly how you want them. 💡 Pro tip from Ben Rupp: With Teams Channels and Chats combined, be careful not to bury your unpinned chats. Keep the chat category at the top to ensure you're still responsive to those one-off pings from others in the organization or new group chats that may require your attention.
