"Since Teams was introduced to us for use, the notification sound, that continuous "ding," can be changed to something more delicate or something that sounds a bit more pleasant? I have to live with the only sound notification Teams has, because Microsoft lacks imagination and forgot that not everyone who uses Teams may like the same sound, that annoying "ding" which after a few hours becomes like a hammer hitting your head."

The latest version of NEW TEAMS, lets you change the notification sound. There's not a lot to choose from, but at least we're not stuck with the default now.
Think yourselves lucky, despite the slider in "Notifications" being set to play sounds, I don't get any call notification and constantly miss calls, other sounds work though, like receiving an email, so it is not a system issue, it is an MS bug.
Is it any wonder large numbers of users abandonded Windows for Mac OS, due to constantly having to deal with this type of rubbish in the Windows environment! It's a shame I still have to endure Office 365 in a work context - MS didn't think Mac users were important enough to give full Office functionality, but it is what it is - I certainly won't be going back to Windows any time soon, buying a Mac was the best decision ever and I wish I'd done it sooner!
Why is using Microsoft like being in a submarine - as soon as you open "windows" major problems start!
It's 2023, technology should work, but people are too focused on profits versus the pride of doing a good job.
Since Teams was launched, the project owner wasn't visionary enough to add this functionality as a feature? If would have to seat for 8 to 11 hours a day, using Teams probably would've think about
The default Teams notification sound is pretty harsh.
I hope we can work together to build a future where the goal isn't to profit, but to create, learn, build, and thrive! I love efficiency and would happily design systems that put me out of a job =)
