Microsoft Teams

About Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams is a chat-based workspace within Microsoft 365, which enables users to view and collaborate on documents directly within the application, participate in voice and video conference calls, view full conversation histories and email-style conversation threads, and more. Teams has replaced Skype for Business as Microsoft's online meeting solution.
Microsoft Teams can be customized to suit each individual team, with users able to create tabs for frequently accessed documents or regularly-used cloud services. Integrations with Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, SharePoint, Power BI, Delve, and Planner are all built into Microsoft Teams, allowing users to access and collaborate on a range of files. Skype for Business integration facilitates video and voice conference calls between users, connectors can be used to pull in notifications and updates from a range of third party services including GitHub and Twitter, and the Microsoft Bot Framework is also supported, bringing intelligent bots into the team environment.

If it can be more stable, and cause less stress on our work machines this would be the best collaborative tool out there. With all the additional apps you can install and integrations that exist it is superb.
Pros
I love the integrated Microsoft eco system of Teams. One Drive to share files, Calendar for meetings, internal chat, its all in one place and makes it so easy to communicate with each other and collaborate.
Cons
It seems to cause so many problems for my PC. A day full of Teams calls and heavy Teams usage kills my laptop performance regularly.

Pros
The ability to communicate with colleagues and collaborate with clients using the powerful conference call feature.
Cons
Sometimes the communication with other Microsoft apps is not best optimised.
