Can you send text messages on Microsoft Teams? Short answer: yes! Here’s how.
Global businesses have come to love Microsoft Teams for its cloud-based unified communications tools, telephony control, and app ecosystem.
But while Microsoft Teams may have stolen the enterprise IT leader’s heart, texting is still the communications sweetheart for employees and consumers alike.
Can you send texts from Microsoft Teams?
Microsoft Teams doesn’t offer built-in texting features that allow users to send and receive messages with customers. Instead, you can add third-party tools to your unified communications stack to send and receive SMS and MMS.
These apps should be off-the-shelf and easy to install, so your employees don’t have to waste any time in that awkward ‘get-to-know-you’ phase.
