Log into Teams

   Chat

Share your opinion, and your personality. Send gifs, stickers, and emojis in a group chat or in one-to-one messages.

    Meet

Instantly go from group chat to video conference with the touch of a button. Teams of 10 or 10,000 can meet in one place, no matter how many places they’re in.

   Collaborate

Never do that frantic, searching-for-files thing ever again. In Teams you can access, share, and edit Word docs, PowerPoint, and Excel files in real time.

Why Microsoft Teams?

As of March 1 2020, Skype for Business (previously Lync) will be retired and no longer available at Oregon State University.

How come?

  • Microsoft Teams is a significant upgrade to Skype for Business
  • The on-campus hardware that hosts Skype for Business is reaching its end-of-life and is no longer supported
  • This is in line with Microsoft's official path forward.
