Within the last month or so we go the pop up to try the "new" Teams... The new APP is having so many issues!! We use it for conference calls, and myself and others are having issues where the notifications are not showing, or when invited to a meeting it won't let you "join". I keep having audio (microphone & speaker) issues which I NEVER had previously. I really DO NOT like it. I've switched back to the older version for now. I simply refuse to keep dealing with all these NEW issues with the NEW version! :( It's simply horrible!

    This is a nice marketing reply, but is not at all true. As others have expressed, the new Teams is not faster, more reliable, and more feature packed. Rather, it has gone the other directon.

    I used to point people to Teams regularly (as a consultant for Microsoft partner companies). No more! Now if a company is using something else, I don't even mention Teams because I feel like Teams is likely to be worse than what they currently use.

    Agree with everyone else. The new app is garbage. Slower, buggier, worse UI.

    The Old /Classic Teams is still available, but not for much longer. You have to "toggle" back to the classic version. I did within a week of trying the "new" teams.

    The old Teams worked great, this new version is TERRIBLE. Not sure why we are being forced to use a platform that has been completely ruined by the "new version". I want to stay with the Classic but it has been terminated. I suppose y'all fix it asap or companies will go with another option.

    The web browser version doesn't let you change device settings. When downloading the desktop app it just gives me the ups something went wrong try again or sign out. This app is such **** trash it is unbelievable.
