Teams
COMMUNICATION & WORK COLLABORATION
"Teams" is one of the newer products released in 2017. This app is quickly becoming the most adopted for use in communication and teamwork. "Teams" gives you one window to access the Microsoft productivity apps and third-party applications. You can create a contract in Word, set up a meeting with your customer, and have them sign it all within the Teams app. Teams offer services like chat, calls, and video with your workers or customers. Also, schedule appointments, meetings and view your calendar are just a few tasks you can accomplish within Teams.
SharePoint
COMPANY INTERNAL WEBSITE (INTRANET)
This service is more a platform, not an app. SharePoint gives you the ability to store and share documents, manage lists of items, create workflows, and build an internal Cloud structure accessible to only the users you choose. Let us take a simple use case for contractors, a list can track your tools purchase, present value, warranty info, and which worker or person is currently in possession. This list is commonly referred to as Asset Management and applies to any items of value. If you need to keep a list of proposals, contracts, leases, or records of any kind, we can create libraries to manage them. SharePoint has an abundance of uses in a small business environment.
