At my work all but me love microsoft. But ..... They started to complain about teams too. I only use the chat because it's impossible to avoid.
Literally no one I work with likes Teams but we keep using it because that's just what we do. Other options basically don't exist simply by virtue of being either not Microsoft or not overwhelmingly the market leader.
So you're saying that other options do exist but some companies don't want to use them because Microsoft is very popular, which is kind of a circular thing, and I understand, but it's a sign of laziness, not quality.
I'm not sure why you're taking a oppositional tone. To be clear I'm complaining, not trying to justify it.
My work hate Microsoft but don't see a viable alternative. Microsoft is safer because of their stranglehold.
