Microsoft Teams is a hub for team collaboration. As with all Office 365 apps, Teams is free for SF students, faculty and staff. With Teams you can integrate the people, content, and tools your team needs to be more engaged and effective, whether you share a work space, or work remote. Teams can be used by staff create a virtual shared office, or by professors and students to simulate a classroom environment.
