What is Microsoft Teams?
Microsoft Teams is an instant messaging, online meetings, and collaboration tool. It's a Microsoft 365 app that lets you chat and meet with colleagues, whether you're in the office or from anywhere in the world. Teams is available with Online Business Essentials and Business Professional plans from GoDaddy.

With Teams, rest easy knowing that your communications are secure. Choose who to include in meetings and get notified if any meetings are being recorded. You'll also get data protection and other security features to keep your business safe. Find out more about security, compliance and privacy in Teams from Microsoft.
Make Teams work best for you by integrating it with apps. There are many apps to choose from based on your industry or specific business needs, including workflow automation and project management tools. Find out more about collaboration with apps in Teams from Microsoft.
We recommend trying an app called Shifts with Teams. Shifts is a cloud-based platform for employees whose job requires them to be on their feet or on the go, like waiters or bus drivers. Shifts helps business owners create and manage work shifts, clock-in/out, share files and communicate important information to team members. Find out more about Shifts from Microsoft.
