Teams beats Zoom

As more and more people are working from home these days to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus around the world, workplace communication tools are becoming more important than ever.

During Microsoft's Q3 2020 earnings call on Wednesday, CEO Satya Nadella dropped some impressive numbers with respect to the company's own workplace communication app Teams. Just six week after reaching 44 million daily active users in late March, Microsoft Teams is now being used by more than 75 million people each day. That’s up from just 20 million in November 2019 and almost certainly a side-effect of remote work becoming the new norm amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Teams was launched in March 2017 as “the chat-based workplace” in Microsoft’s Office 365. By November 2019, it had reached 20 million daily active users, overtaking Slack, the trailblazer for workplace communications tools.
