There were many who agreed with Nikhil. One Twitter user wrote, “yes. have moved entirely to Google Meet now. Internet is v stable with a larger group. And I refuse to take meetings on Teams. Esp on a Mac it’s hell. Zoom is ok but their renewals are weird.” Another person wrote, “Absolutely. Have turned Google Meet into my default VC tool. Simple, efficient, syncs seamlessly with the phone’s calendar & seemingly secure. MS Teams and Amazon Chime are unnecessarily complex.”
“Having used all three, Teams is best suited for an enterprise set up and not exclusively for VC meetings alone. The 360 degree integration with chats, channels, SharePoint, different apps one can plug in is sheer dreamy stuff. Zoom & Meet probably meet most of the VC only reqs,” wrote a Twitter user.

MS teams caters to a much bigger audience with a lot of features. Comparing Meet and Zoom to Teams is like comparing a hand blender with a food processor.— Muskein Singh ⚛️ (@Muskein) January 31, 2023
MS Teams is actually Skype on steroids , Remember Skype? Microsoft has grown by acquiring competitive products, integrating with other products from their suite,, and like other integrations, there are gaps, conflicts
I didn’t like the inability to delete chats on Teams
