Since the end of January 2020, Microsoft has seen a staggering 500 percent increase in Teams meetings, calling, and conferences, and a 200 percent increase in Teams usage on mobile devices.* Organizations of all sizes are either already using Microsoft Teams or on the path to migrating to it. Those organizations are already achieving the benefits from this unified communication and collaboration (UC&C) platform like the ability for chat, voice and video calling, meetings, file sharing, application integration, etc. \u00a0However, there are organizations who haven\u2019t migrated yet because they need help or, they are on Skype for Business-Online and need to make this transition quickly.<\/p>\n
