I find Teams and OneDrive superior to their counterparts. The jury is still out on Outlook, but you can't beat it if you use exchange.

Teams is awful. I don't know how people actually like these closed IM apps to begin with but Teams is one of the most poorly behaved ones.

In my experience, before Teams most companies used Webex. This failed regularly and participants had to constantly try dialling in via phone because the app didn't work.

Teams works, at least, compared to Webex.

Teams is the only one that works reasonably well in different browsers and also has a decent official Linux client.

In my experience, Zoom is the one that always causes issues for people. Not to mention that it has had tons of security issues.

Teams is the only one that can't join calls at all on Firefox.

Slack call for long time didn’t work on Firefox. You got message “This feature works only on Chrome”. Recently Firefox is not blocked, but still doesn’t work for me.

Most people saying teams is terrible are probably referring to the non audio/video components and have used any slack competitor before their employer randomly switched to this weird PoS called teams.
