Teams in Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is used to create teams for collaborative projects. Working with a team is easier with Microsoft Teams. Teams are collections of people, content, and tools centered around different projects or outcomes within an organization. They can be private (only invited users) or public (open for anyone within the organization to join).

Team owners can create teams based on projects, departments, or other organizational structures.

Teams can be dynamic (for project-based work) or ongoing (reflecting internal organization structure).

Channels: Channels are dedicated sections within a team where conversations are organized by specific topics, projects, or disciplines. Files shared in a channel are stored in SharePoint.
