Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella has great ambitions for his company’s video conferencing software Microsoft Teams (opens in new tab) in 2021, hoping to build on last year’s success. The arrival of the coronavirus pandemic led to a huge surge in popularity (opens in new tab) for the likes of Teams, Zoom, Cisco’s Webex, and other similar digital tools. Now, in an interview with the Financial Times, Nadella has outlined his vision for turning Teams into a “digital platform as significant as the internet browser.” Ultimately, collaboration tools like Teams could serve as the glue that holds the digital work environment together, offering meetings, chat applications, and other programs through a single, unified interface. Nadella’s hopes for Teams would probably not be quite so ambitious if not for the coronavirus pandemic, which forced many businesses to adopt digital collaboration tools in order to remain functioning while social distancing measures were implemented. By the end of September, for example, the number of daily active Teams users reached 115 million, a rise of more than 100 million compared to the year previous. The post-pandemic worldMicrosoft moved fast to fix bugs and make improvements to Teams throughout the last year, making use of the vast amounts of feedback the company received as its user figures surged. For example, Microsoft added a Large Gallery view (opens in new tab) to facilitate bigger meetings and streamlined the call experience (opens in new tab). However, Microsoft knows that it will need to keep iterating if Teams is to fight off stiff competition from a host of other video conferencing tools. Many of the app’s rivals also added new features throughout 2020, while Salesforce’s acquisition of Slack (opens in new tab) at the tail-end of last year could provide further competition in the digital collaboration space. Microsoft has begun offering Teams as a free add-on to its Office software, making it a natural choice for businesses that already pay for the productivity suite. Of course, what the world of work will look like exactly in the coming years is difficult to say. Although the pandemic has shifted workplace trends markedly, how the office will look once the pandemic recedes is anyone’s guess.

Microsoft Teams could soon be as significant as internet browsers and operating systems, Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella, has claimed. Speaking to the Financial Times, Nadella highlighted Teams’ relentless growth over recent years, which has seen its daily active users climb from 13 million in July 2019 to 115 million in September last year. The chief exec said that Teams is morphing beyond a communication tool and becoming an “organising layer” by acting as a hub for other Microsoft services. He claimed it is this ethos that’s building Teams into a platform that could rival internet browsers and operating system in terms of their importance to businesses – also likening it to WeChat in China. WeChat reportedly has more than 1.2 billion monthly active users and spans across chat, video, voice, mobile payments, gaming and web browsing. “In China, WeChat is the internet; that’s a great example,” Nadella said. “There isn’t a western equivalent. If anything, Teams is probably the closest when it comes to the work area.” The way Microsoft has rolled out Teams since its launch 2017 has drawn criticism from competitors. Slack, in particular, claims that Microsoft’s bundling of Teams into Office 365 amounts to anti-competitive behaviour – and has launched a lawsuit in an attempt to prove it. The FT quoted Nadella as firing back at Slack and Salesforce, saying:
