I disagree since 99% of the Teams program is fluff. What a bunch of useless, overly complicated garbage crammed into one stupid thing. Trying to consolidate all programs into one mega program might sound good, but it is stupid. Most people will only use one or two functions of this program that has a thousand functions. What a garbage program. If we want team voice chat and messaging, we use Discord. If we want video conferencing, we use Zoom. If we want shared calendars, we use Gmail. If we want file sharing, we use dropbox. But how many people use ALL of those five things I just mentioned? Probably very very few. and that is just five functions. Expand that to hundreds? Forget it. What a shame.
A beginner, I am accessing Teams because our group will be using it next month instead of ZOOM. There's a lot to LEARN! I've actually backed up the video to listen to your presentation to help it sink in! ") Bit by bit. Thank you for making it available.
By far, this was the most helpful and informative bit of instruction and introduction to Microsoft Teams that I've accessed. Truly well done. I recommend it enthusiastically.
Very very helpful. Now I want to use Microsoft Team. My organization provided a how to video, and it had way to much information and it put me to sleep. I will be sharing this video to my office, so we can start using this right away. Thanks.
Teams was installed at my workplace and everyone given access... but no Training ⛔📖. Of the 250 workers, 200+ are confused as hell, 20 are just confused, and 30 (administrators/dept head/managers) think this is the greatest thing in the world. Sometimes a "Great Stapler" makes a "Lousy Hammer." Common question at work, "my haven't you responded to my Teams message?" "I don't get on the computer but once a week..." "It's company policy you have to log in daily..." Nobody logs in daily. Just the elect 30... who got and paid for Teams. Seems to work for them.👍
I've started using Teams recently, since I've been working at home and I didn't find it very easy to work with at the beginning. So your video was a great help, in a summed up way you gave us an overall view of teams. Thank you!
No application is easy to work with at the start. Things like these are a great option. However, I would suggest you start messing around with the controls and see what does what. And by doing that, you might get the hang of it. It's like a phone.
I would have loved to see more on how to use Teams for school purposes: how to use whiteboard during a meeting, how it prevents from intruders to enter meetings.
Total beginner. You are a bit fast. It would have been good if you had actually started with how you created the team in the first place! Channel! Messages! Banner! I just want more info on the video meeting and see what it would look like managing the team and what do people receive at he other end when you invite them to join? :-/
You very much glossed over the requirements for using Teams. As I understand it as a single home user I cannot use Teams, I must have an association with a company or school that has Microsoft 365. This does not make sense to me. 1:10 of video. This means that if someone wants to, for example, interview me for a job while I am at home on my home PC or Mac, this is not possible?
Sorry, wrong. Microsoft Teams has a free version that I installed today (April 18, 2020) and am using Teams free version on my Windows 10 laptop. I signed up using my base Microsoft Live Account, then used my @Earthlink email address to set up the Microsoft Teams business account for my own IT support business. One does not have to use Office 365, as I am not using Office 365. I am using Office 2013. I am using the Teams Desktop app. Everything appears to be working properly. There are a couple of minor bells & whistles missing in the FREE version, but so far, it's not a deal-breaker.
Hi Kevin, thanks for the video. Would you know how to receive notifications and see them from working in multiple company Teams environment ? While working in one company with Teams and being able to see Teams notifications from another company, without hitting toggle in the top right corner to switch over to that company and then receiving the notifications?
Thanks for this. Very interesting. Is there a specific tutorial on setting up a learning workshop for external, not part of your company, contacts/clients?
If creating a project within a department, is it best to create a team for the department and then a channel for the project or just make a team for the project?
I've been trying to find instructions on how to add attendees to a recurring Teams meeting without sending an update to everyone who is already invited. Perhaps we need training on setting up meetings in Teams.
Hi I'm also interested in this. In Sharepoint you have the option to create Choice Columns, but I don't see the dropdown list to select a choice on Teams. Nice feature, but not to intuitive to use
I have been invited to participate in a summit and I need to have their background to use. When I click the link for teams that was share it does not allow me to add a backdrop. there are to spaces that show one is to blur the background and the other is a white butter that cannot be accessed. So I downloaded team for me and I cannot connect to their team platforms because it says i'm the manger so what am I doing wrong.
Thank Kevin. Great tutorial! Love your pacing, clear delivery. I am fairly new to Teams, was just using what I needed to in order to keep up with a project. Your tutorial has filled in the 'gaps' for me.
Kevin, thank you for this wonderful tutorial. My organization is in the process of migrating everything to Office 365, and they're implementing apps incrementally. We will soon be using MS Teams, and being the techie (geek) that I am, I always want to know how to use applications as soon as we have them. Your tutorial provided me with a good understanding of the functionality, so once the organization pushes it out to us, I should be comfortable using it.
Do you have plans to conduct a webinar for microsoft teams? so that we can get digital certificates. The webinar is a big help for us teachers because we are requested to train microsoft teams for remote learning. Thanks!
Great video, my employer has just started using Teams and I have to come up with some workflows for how to manage sensitive information for my national team. This was very helpful as a first starting point in learning about it.
So gmails can not have a Team account? Can you also make sure in China it is going to be quicker and easier to use as I want to organise an international Forum organisation and conference with lots of people in China who seem to have problems to sign up and log in
Great tutorial. Well conducted and paced. Easy to follow. Starting to migrate my dept into Teams for a more centralized collaboration model and I can already see the possibilities! Thank you.
Am I not able to invite people with microsoft accounts (ex: using gmail addresses) to Teams? I tried adding members by email address (xxx@gmail. com) but it said it couldn't find any matches...any help would be awesome...thanks!
It seems like this is just Discord with a few extra features. But, you are required to have a Microsoft account, instead of being able to use an account you already have. Would be nice if you are a teacher, tutor, or running a business. But, not really best for gamer, or streamers. Looks like Discord is still best for them. Razar.
I have started to use this app recently as I am now working from home. My employer has sent me a bunch of written instructions, but I am visual/experimental learner so cannot be dealing with that. I must say this is the best tutorial I have seen; very easy to follow.
Great video! We are currently using Skype for Business in our organization and will be transitioning to Teams in the next few months. Would you please let me know if you have any video or documentation on how to perform a task in Teams versus how you would have performed it in Skype for Business? We use SFB for IM, SFB meetings and call controls. I'd like to learn how to do a SFB tasks in Teams. Thanks
I don't have the answer to your question but if you are transitioning to Teams soon be sure to look for Microsoft Teams optimized headsets. They make all the difference when used with Teams!
Good overview, but MS Teams is pathetic. No way to login to multiple accounts if you work in more than one organizations. Slack has that. Audio and video quality is abysmal. Zoom has very professional, high quality audio and video. The list goes on and on. MS Teams quality is even worse than skype.
Harry M , sorry but I disagree, MS Teams is not perfect but is not pathetic at all. I work at a big company ( several thousands of employees) and around 75% of us have been using it intensively from home for the last 6 months, sharing files and having meetings, and chats all day, and the quality of service has been pretty good in general.
Hi Keven, thank you for this quick tutorial. I'm new to Teams. I have a question for you: How do we delete a chat/old chat no longer needed ? I searched in youtube , did not find how yet
Hi Kevin, great presentation! Very informative! One quick question, you briefly spoke about the different third party plugins such as Zoom. Does Microsoft Teams support GotoMeeting clients? Also very important, can Microsoft Teams support any conference room equipment such as Polycom and/or logitech Rally Plus so we can use it on a 85in Big Screen TV in a conference room?
The only thing I want is to know how to only let my teacher see my camera screen for attendance it’s required to turn it on only for attendance but I don’t want all the students to see my face just the teacher please help... also ik it’s possible cause there’s a few students who due it but idk how to ask them please help
This was the best introduction to Teams I've seen: perfect pace, understandable, easy to follow. Am very glad I found it after trying a bunch of other tutorials. Thank you so much!
Is this outdated? I just watched a video titled Online Teaching and Instruction in M.T. and the man said you do not need 365 and you can access from Gmail. Which is correct?
Tried to join a meeting on my laptop - wouldn't allow it. Joined the meeting on my phone - only 2 other people could see me, the rest of the class were texting, asking where I was. I was in the meeting, they were in the meeting, but it appeared to be 2 separate meetings. MS Teams is confusing. It should be called BS Teams!
Hi Kevin, I really enjoy and learn a lot from you videos. I want to ask - how come I am getting the message "We couldn't schedule the meeting. Please try again later." ? I get this message whenever I schedule a meeting in Outlook 365. Hope you can help me.
Hey Nick - I use the Rode NT USB mic as my main mic. I really like the mic and I did a video on it a little while back. th-cam.com/video/uSiJNrD5Ez8/w-d-xo.html It'll set you back about $170.
Thanks a ton for this! Very very simple and easy to follow for new users like myself! Just a question as this is something I will likely use with my ESL students - would it be possible to create a very simplistic video breaking down the steps of how an ESL student could access Teams? I would like to know what they see on their end once the invite goes out. I feel that the online component is an added challenge for them in addition to the language barrier, so I would like to make it as painless for them as possible. Thanks for your time!
Great video. Question I have. At my work place I have to setup meetings with 10-14 people on the fly frequently. These people are all in a team. Is there a way to send an invite through the calendar without typing all the names?
I have a question about using Excel, Word in Teams. In the last part, you showed we can use Excel in teams. When We edit in teams will it become saved automatically? Or do I have to download every time we edit?
thank you so much for this very nice and informative description for the Microsoft Team. I hope if there is description video on Microsoft video stream
Very helpful video. Has been using team in the last 6 months, it was a bit overwhelming. Now I am going to use it everyday. This video covers everything. Well done!
Great tutorial!! I have a question: at 5:51 the files view shows a few extra columns than my Teams installation has. I'm very interested in the STATUS column...How'd you get that? or where can I learn more about using a status column in my Teams installation? Thank you!
Hi Kevin! Really enjoying and looking forward to your next "Info Videos". I'm with a Government office (Education) w/ more than half a million employees and since the COVID-19 pandemic, me and my small team were tasked to teach and assist our co-workers in using MS Teams. Since video conferencing is getting to be a norm in this time and age, I was wondering if you could make or plan to make a short video (demo/tutorial) on how to use MS Teams together with Video Conferencing etiquette for "Dummies"? If you get what I mean... Thank you very much and keep safe!
Good God, I will need a bit of practice to absorb the content as fast as you are spitting it out. Wow, I'm going to need a power drink just to recuperate. Lots of interesting stuff though, Thanks
I really don't know how this happened but I did downloads teams with my personal Microsoft account, like not a school or office one. Can anyone watching those video tell me that is it even possible or it just happened with me. BTW amazing video
I have the following questions: 1) For teaching online, do my students have to purchase the teams software 2) Can you post pictures on the whiteboard? and 3) Is the whiteboard interactive for use by both the instructor and the students?
1. How do I access Teams with my personal office 365 subscription? IF YES, how and.. 2. Can I send invite/chat and meet non 365 members with Teams? Thanks for your educative videos.
Unfortunately you can't currently access Teams with a personal Office 365 subscription. You need a work or school account to access. Once you're in Teams, you can invite anyone else to join the Team, irrespective of what type of account the other person has. Hope that helps!
How are job seekers supposed to use this to communicate with businesses, when they have to be part of a company to use it? Sounds like the same shit as Skype for business. I had hoped this problems would be solved with Teams. Well congratulations Microsoft, you did it again. New program, still the same old problems exists.
Hi, Loving your Teams videos! When would you use 2 seperate Teams - Biology 101 Class 1 - Biology 101 Class 2 Vs 1 Team & 2Channels - Biology 101 -Private Channel for Classe 1 -Private Channel for Classe 2 Can you use all school functionalities in both cases?
This was great Kevin!! In the toutorial, I noticed that in the files you had added a column for "status". I need to do that, but it is not listed as a template column, and can't find any mention of it anywhere when I search. Can you explain how I can add the status column? Thanks in advance!
Hi Kevin, I really love your videos as there are very informative and straightforward. Recently I created a team in Microfoft Teams by accident and it is based on a SharePoint page. Can I delete the team I created but not affecting the SharePoint page that is linked? I am afraid by deleting both will be gone. How this is done? Thanks in advance.
Hello. Thanks for sharing. My question is presenting a Power Point in Teams. I recently presented my Power Point to a class and I did not have view of my Power Point notes on screen unless I shared through my desktop. Is there something I am doing incorrectly. Thanks.
Thank you for the overview. My 1st impression of teams: lots of resources and possibilities. Downside is too many windows too many buttons, too much visual information. Should be not only powerful, should be simpler.
@12:40 - While Teams has a lot of good business-based uses it's still utter rubbish from an audio-visual point of view. The device settings are too basic - I understand why you might want to hide these settings for casual users, but there should be an advanced tab that lets you a do lot more with it. MS need to look at the kind of things Open Broadcaster can do - multiple audio devices, video and audio EQ, levels and mixing, aspect ratio, video resolution, filters.. these things could make it a professional presentation tool instead of a glorified Skype tacked onto a file management system. Hell, just allow users basic things like toggle video mirroring on the preview, or accessing their webcam's settings app from the Teams settings page - you even fell foul of that in the video! "As my webcam is going in and out of focus.. I can.. errr.. turn it off.." - yeah imagine you just clicked a button and the webcam settings came up and you could turn autofocus off. Sure you can do that in Windows by searching for it, but it's hardly befitting of a pro-level application that it doesn't have such basic stuff. Zoom is still very basic but I actually encourage it's use for a lot of education and presentation-based things in my organisation, just because it has a few more settings. It's getting used for webinars and presentations involving senior management and they're like "hey AV guy, can you sort X issue out?" and I'm ending up being like "well.. no, there's literally no settings here".
Thank you so much for this video!! At about 14:30, you show and discuss the "Start recording" option during the video chat. I downloaded the free version of Teams on a MacBook Air, and that feature doesn't come up on my "..." menu in my video meeting. Is there a purchase I need to make to have that?
No need of purchase,i use ms teams for school but 1 thing, are you supposed to be student or teacher? Because for students,that option is either bot there or it is disabled (grey). For teachers,it will show up with some other settings.
@@hanawaleedlol Neither - it's for an audition/job interview, so I downloaded the software independently. I need to record the practice video chats I'm having with my friends so I can see if my audio equipment is cooperating with Teams.
hello kevin sir, I have purchased the Microsoft 365 personal subscription but i can not use microsof teams all the functions as my organization give me with their id. [I want to use teams with my Microsoft 365 personal account] Please give me suggestions. I expect the best form you. thank you.
...so in order for me to invite someone outside the organization, they must have a MS Team account? If they don't, then they cannoy join meeting...correct?
You can invite anyone to join your meeting even if they're outside your organization. They don't need a Microsoft account to join (e.g. I can invite someone with a Gmail account to join).
This is the best overview I have seen anywhere! No fluff. No chit chat. Solid info. Thank you! I broke down the time stamps for my users, so I thought I'd share it with you.

Teams was installed at my workplace and everyone given access... but no Training ⛔📖. Of the 250 workers, 200+ are confused as hell, 20 are just confused, and 30 (administrators/dept head/managers) think this is the greatest thing in the world. Sometimes a "Great Stapler" makes a "Lousy Hammer." Common question at work, "my haven't you responded to my Teams message?" "I don't get on the computer but once a week..." "It's company policy you have to log in daily..." Nobody logs in daily. Just the elect 30... who got and paid for Teams. Seems to work for them.👍

This was the best introduction to Teams I've seen: perfect pace, understandable, easy to follow. Am very glad I found it after trying a bunch of other tutorials. Thank you so much!
WoW I feel totally empowered by your brilliant tuto!!! To me Teams is a great mix between Slack x Trello yeah 🎉
Hi Kevin, thank you so much for sharing this!!!
Is this outdated? I just watched a video titled Online Teaching and Instruction in M.T. and the man said you do not need 365 and you can access from Gmail. Which is correct?
**New Info: Microsoft made Teams free for business/school accounts currently due to the COVID situation
Tried to join a meeting on my laptop - wouldn't allow it. Joined the meeting on my phone - only 2 other people could see me, the rest of the class were texting, asking where I was. I was in the meeting, they were in the meeting, but it appeared to be 2 separate meetings.
MS Teams is confusing. It should be called BS Teams!
Thank so much for the video!! My whole team recently went to work from home due to coronovirus....we needed this!!!!
Hi Kevin, I really enjoy and learn a lot from you videos. I want to ask - how come I am getting the message "We couldn't schedule the meeting. Please try again later." ? I get this message whenever I schedule a meeting in Outlook 365. Hope you can help me.
Hi Kevin, thanks for the tutorial! May I ask what was the mic you used to record this video? The audio was really good. Cheers!
Hey Nick - I use the Rode NT USB mic as my main mic. I really like the mic and I did a video on it a little while back. th-cam.com/video/uSiJNrD5Ez8/w-d-xo.html It'll set you back about $170.

Thanks a ton for this! Very very simple and easy to follow for new users like myself!
Just a question as this is something I will likely use with my ESL students - would it be possible to create a very simplistic video breaking down the steps of how an ESL student could access Teams? I would like to know what they see on their end once the invite goes out. I feel that the online component is an added challenge for them in addition to the language barrier, so I would like to make it as painless for them as possible. Thanks for your time!
That was all I needed. Thank you.

If Microsoft Teams was better designed you would not need so many videos showing how to access and do really basic things.
Tooo much information too quickly, my brain is hurting.
Great video. Question I have. At my work place I have to setup meetings with 10-14 people on the fly frequently. These people are all in a team. Is there a way to send an invite through the calendar without typing all the names?
Excellent overview. Thank You!
So its like Discord, just more difficult to use and have integrated functionality for other microsoft stuff so office workers can use it. I see.

I have a question about using Excel, Word in Teams. In the last part, you showed we can use Excel in teams. When We edit in teams will it become saved automatically? Or do I have to download every time we edit?
thank you so much for this very nice and informative description for the Microsoft Team. I hope if there is description video on Microsoft video stream
Very helpful video. Has been using team in the last 6 months, it was a bit overwhelming. Now I am going to use it everyday. This video covers everything. Well done!
Great tutorial!! I have a question: at 5:51 the files view shows a few extra columns than my Teams installation has. I'm very interested in the STATUS column...How'd you get that? or where can I learn more about using a status column in my Teams installation? Thank you!
Hi Kevin! Really enjoying and looking forward to your next "Info Videos". I'm with a Government office (Education) w/ more than half a million employees and since the COVID-19 pandemic, me and my small team were tasked to teach and assist our co-workers in using MS Teams. Since video conferencing is getting to be a norm in this time and age, I was wondering if you could make or plan to make a short video (demo/tutorial) on how to use MS Teams together with Video Conferencing etiquette for "Dummies"? If you get what I mean... Thank you very much and keep safe!
Thank you. It was good to start.Is there any better way to use white board because its difficult to write.No text boxes?
Guys who know, is there such software EnotGlobal, did anyone work for them?
Good God, I will need a bit of practice to absorb the content as fast as you are spitting it out. Wow, I'm going to need a power drink just to recuperate. Lots of interesting stuff though, Thanks
Great information. 👍🏼 Thank you 😃
awesome video for beginner
I really don't know how this happened but I did downloads teams with my personal Microsoft account, like not a school or office one. Can anyone watching those video tell me that is it even possible or it just happened with me. BTW amazing video
I have the following questions: 1) For teaching online, do my students have to purchase the teams software 2) Can you post pictures on the whiteboard? and 3) Is the whiteboard interactive for use by both the instructor and the students?
1. How do I access Teams with my personal office 365 subscription?
IF YES, how and..
2. Can I send invite/chat and meet non 365 members with Teams?
Thanks for your educative videos.
Unfortunately you can't currently access Teams with a personal Office 365 subscription. You need a work or school account to access. Once you're in Teams, you can invite anyone else to join the Team, irrespective of what type of account the other person has. Hope that helps!
If you are using Microsoft Teams don't forget to use a Microsoft Teams optimized headset. It makes all the difference!
How are job seekers supposed to use this to communicate with businesses, when they have to be part of a company to use it? Sounds like the same shit as Skype for business. I had hoped this problems would be solved with Teams. Well congratulations Microsoft, you did it again. New program, still the same old problems exists.
Hi, Loving your Teams videos!
When would you use
2 seperate Teams
- Biology 101 Class 1
- Biology 101 Class 2
Vs
1 Team & 2Channels
- Biology 101
-Private Channel for Classe 1
-Private Channel for Classe 2
Can you use all school functionalities in both cases?
Nobody knows where to get the EnotGlobal key, there is nothing in Google ((
This was great Kevin!! In the toutorial, I noticed that in the files you had added a column for "status". I need to do that, but it is not listed as a template column, and can't find any mention of it anywhere when I search. Can you explain how I can add the status column? Thanks in advance!
Hi Kevin, I really love your videos as there are very informative and straightforward. Recently I created a team in Microfoft Teams by accident and it is based on a SharePoint page. Can I delete the team I created but not affecting the SharePoint page that is linked? I am afraid by deleting both will be gone. How this is done? Thanks in advance.
Hello. Thanks for sharing. My question is presenting a Power Point in Teams. I recently presented my Power Point to a class and I did not have view of my Power Point notes on screen unless I shared through my desktop. Is there something I am doing incorrectly. Thanks.
It appears that this works: techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/presenter-mode-notes-and-thumbnails-in-teams/m-p/281045
Well done mate.
Thank you for the overview. My 1st impression of teams: lots of resources and possibilities. Downside is too many windows too many buttons, too much visual information. Should be not only powerful, should be simpler.
@12:40 - While Teams has a lot of good business-based uses it's still utter rubbish from an audio-visual point of view. The device settings are too basic - I understand why you might want to hide these settings for casual users, but there should be an advanced tab that lets you a do lot more with it. MS need to look at the kind of things Open Broadcaster can do - multiple audio devices, video and audio EQ, levels and mixing, aspect ratio, video resolution, filters.. these things could make it a professional presentation tool instead of a glorified Skype tacked onto a file management system.
Hell, just allow users basic things like toggle video mirroring on the preview, or accessing their webcam's settings app from the Teams settings page - you even fell foul of that in the video! "As my webcam is going in and out of focus.. I can.. errr.. turn it off.." - yeah imagine you just clicked a button and the webcam settings came up and you could turn autofocus off. Sure you can do that in Windows by searching for it, but it's hardly befitting of a pro-level application that it doesn't have such basic stuff. Zoom is still very basic but I actually encourage it's use for a lot of education and presentation-based things in my organisation, just because it has a few more settings. It's getting used for webinars and presentations involving senior management and they're like "hey AV guy, can you sort X issue out?" and I'm ending up being like "well.. no, there's literally no settings here".
My son’s school/teacher uses OneNote for their virtual schooling. Can you make a video for that like you did for Teams?
Here's a video I did on OneNote that comes with Windows 10: th-cam.com/video/hjnQ937cg8g/w-d-xo.html Let me know if that helps. Cheers!
Thank you so much for this video!! At about 14:30, you show and discuss the "Start recording" option during the video chat. I downloaded the free version of Teams on a MacBook Air, and that feature doesn't come up on my "..." menu in my video meeting. Is there a purchase I need to make to have that?
No need of purchase,i use ms teams for school but 1 thing, are you supposed to be student or teacher? Because for students,that option is either bot there or it is disabled (grey). For teachers,it will show up with some other settings.
Not,not bot
@@hanawaleedlol Neither - it's for an audition/job interview, so I downloaded the software independently. I need to record the practice video chats I'm having with my friends so I can see if my audio equipment is cooperating with Teams.
Hi this was really good. I only have a Mac so just wondering if Teams is affected by this?
hello kevin sir,
I have purchased the Microsoft 365 personal subscription but i can not use microsof teams all the functions as my organization give me with their id. [I want to use teams with my Microsoft 365 personal account]
Please give me suggestions.
I expect the best form you.
thank you.
...so in order for me to invite someone outside the organization, they must have a MS Team account? If they don't, then they cannoy join meeting...correct?
You can invite anyone to join your meeting even if they're outside your organization. They don't need a Microsoft account to join (e.g. I can invite someone with a Gmail account to join).
