Conclusion 1:

Teams is a chat-based communication platform.

With Teams, you can chat, call, perform an online meeting or share a document with your colleague. Teams works perfectly in scenarios where you are working with a group of people on a given project.

Conclusion 2:

Teams doesn’t fulfill a one-stop platform.

Other than communication functions, Teams can’t fully perform as a one-stop shop where you can go to for top-down organization news, HR tools, DMS, forms and policies, etc. Involv intranet offers all the most requested features which are used and loved by everyone in the organization.

Conclusion 3:

Teams doesn’t represent your company brand.

Because the look customization is very limited in Teams, it doesn’t reflex your company brand and style. Involv intranet provides you with 3 visually appealing homepage templates which allows you to customize the colors, theme and logo to match your company brand.
