      Microsoft bundles all of their software in a way that makes it much more expensive to pick and choose which software you want from Microsoft and which one you would want from someone else. It’s a very similar strategy to that of Adobe.

        Teams has even an internal micromanager that reports to your boss how “productive” you have been (read, how fast you are typing in Office apps).

      When I used to install collaboration systems, the main thing clients would tell me why they chose say a Logitech Rally with MS Teams over Cisco and WebEx was it’s cheaper. With that said you can setup a Cisco Room Kit with Teams integration.
