Now they roll out the features that are making the video conference look like a real conference interactive. Microsoft Teams got Together Mode, Dynamic view, and Live Captions. We will see each in with a clear explanation, But Together mode is excellent among them. Instead of a boring tile-based gallery where you can talk to all the people, with the help of Together mode, you can assign them like they are sitting in the Gallery or front of your table. You can talk to them like they are physically present in front of you. Also, The Dynamic view is a useful feature where you can show your work side by side and chat at the same time.

What is Microsoft Teams?

The Microsoft Teams is a chat-based application, launched on 14th March 2017, to provide a platform for a global and remotely dispersed team, to work and share information simultaneously. Microsoft launched it initially in 181 countries, supporting 18 languages for its commercial customers using office 365 enterprise or business plan. With a team enterprise version, you can video chat with up to 250 people simultaneously or make your Presentation alive to 10,000 people.

Moreover, you can schedule an upcoming meeting through the team app or even through Outlook. Later in 2017, a free version was launched to help everyone work remotely using document sharing, one-to-one chat, group chat, and many cool features.

Latest features

After Microsoft Teams goes to regular users, they keep pushing a lot of useful features that make video conference experience into real-world like experience. On 8th July 2020, Microsoft announced many cool features of the team to meet the futuristic needs of its customers. These features will help you enhance your virtual interactions, making them more engaging, and more natural. You will feel more connected with your team sitting remotely, reducing the meeting fatigues. Better engagement with your team members will help you streamline your goals to save time and energy.

Here are some of the key features announced; some are available, and many will be launched later this year.

Microsoft Teams Together mode

In the current situation,  you are conducting more virtual meetings than ever, but you feel less connected and fatigued during these virtual meetings. People in virtual meetings with different backgrounds cannot give you the feel of a meeting room. Together mode in Microsoft Teams is a new meeting experience using the AI segmentation technology, which places you with other participants in a shared background, giving you a meeting feel in the same room with other participants.

Your created avatar is so real that you can tap others back while watching their facial expressions. In together mode, you feel more engaged in watching other participants’ faces and body language, helping you find more non-verbal cues to interact accordingly. While rolling out, together mode uses auditorium view, which will be available in August to all users. Microsoft announced adding more opinions in the future for more interactive virtual meetings.

Chat bubbles

With this feature, every participant should be able to express his emotions during the meeting. Usually, it isn’t easy to read chat messages during presentations or video chat. It will create a bubble on the participant’s screen, which will make it central to the conversation.  

Wrap up

Microsoft is mostly changed, and they are accepting some flaws and begin to adapt to the future. They launched all in one Microsoft 365, which is useful for regular and family users. They also shutdowns their local stores and move to online stores completely. It seems like Microsoft has performed a little lot of research to judge and cater to the needs of people. Rolling out the together mode in a relatively short period, along with other features, is indeed an excellent competitive move. Do you think Teams would be able to win over its rivals? Are you convinced to shift to Teams, already? Comment and let us know.
