Eww no, Teams is a Slack like work chat app, Outlook is an email client and email is the worst thing to happen to corporate communication, email is only good for company wide announcements. The threaded view of a email chat looks idiotic, I've never met someone over the age of 40 who knows how to find an old email with attachments, so they keep asking you to email them the same files as attachments over and over again, it's slow as he'll, nothings more excruciating than the silence where you are on a meeting someone sends a email to someone else and now everyone has to wait for the email to arrive in the inbox. If it's not instant messaging I dont want it, "Yours sincerely" has no place in 2025 for me
It's often the only way for intercompany communication. Even if both companies use teams the various it departments have to do some incantation in order to make them talk to each other.
