Why is the "NEW" Teams so horrible??

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!

    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.

    I can't believe they now removed the toggle to go back to Classic Teams. I am completely hosed now. Can not download files in the New Teams - only worked in classic. I can't work. This is ridiculous. I hope our company changes Apps soon!

    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.

    How does Teams on the web work for you? Might be an option.

    Everything in NEW teams is slow, it uses consistently more memory than previous version of teams. Its slow between clicks and takes its sweet time bringing up each chat you click on. New teams removed saved messages from older versions of teams. Oh, but in 2 weeks, we'll all be forced to use this mess of a program with no options to revert. Gold medal microsoft, you win the gold medal....

    Thanks, Micros**k for providing yet more evidence why you shouldn't be allowed to purchase other products and rebrand them. Its evident you are incapable of creating anything on your own that's halfway decent, and anytime you change or update any product you consistently make it worse than it was before.

    Do not ever buy products like Discord, Slack, etc... all you'll do is ruin them. Microsoft is like the student that still gets an F on the test even though they copied the straight A student's answers.
