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!

    I've switched back to the "classic" version but now today I am even having issues with that! From what I was told by IT it's company wide too. The new teams just kept causing problems -- also if you try to switch between the classic & new - you lose all your prior communications with the others in your Teams Chat!!

    And as you can see from this post, issues with the new version is definitely NOT the exception but the RULE! Maybe we should all switch to Slack??

    Yes, today especially, my whole company is having issues. Prior to the last couple of days, we have had issues, but they were manageable, and seemed to clear up then come back. Yesterday and today it is horrendous. I feel like I am back on skype, the only thing you can do is chat. You cannot paste and image as it will not show up. Calendar is ****, made some meetings that never showed up for others. Also, could not join a couple meetings yesterday, clicking join did nothing. I had to join on my mobile. Come on Microsoft, really?? Who decided it was a good idea to ship this? Also to make your user base your Beta testers.

    I have also had many issues with New Teams. Photos never show up when others send them to me and they rarely send when I try to send to others. Sometimes messages fail to send or just completely disappear. I'll wait, refresh, reboot, and nothing. But then I go to send the message again and when I look at the conversation on my phone app for Teams, both messages sent... Photos also load on my phone app but not in desktop New Teams. It's overall so glitchy.
