Microsoft Teams added 12 million daily active users in a single week amid the coronavirus crisis, bringing it up to 44 million total
Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.Microsoft said its Teams workplace chat and collaboration tool now has 44 million daily active users as of March 18th.
The increase in user numbers puts pressure on rival Slack, which hasn't provided an update to daily user numbers since October 2019, when it said it had 12 million. That dynamic has made services like Microsoft Teams all the more important as a way for remote workers to communicate and work together.
Some of the features, like noise reduction and hand-raising, are already things available in rival Zoom's very popular video conferencing app, Carolina Milanesi, an analyst at Creative Strategies told Business Insider. Zoom, however, focuses squarely on videoconferencing, meaning that Microsoft may still have an advantage.
