The Redmond giant is working to improve the Microsoft integration of Outlook and Teamstwo of the company’s most important platforms that, today, are used by millions of people around the world, and that have become two key pillars of their daily activity for many professionals.
Thanks to the latest revision that the company has introduced in the Microsoft 365 roadmap, we have been able to learn more details about this future integration. When this occurs, users will be able to directly access Teams chat from an Outlook meetingand this will allow them to send a quick message and also review the ones they have pending reading in said chat.
This new integration is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2023, with general availability taking place in March 2023, although it is important to note that it is impossible to rule out a possible delay. In general terms, it represents a notable deepening of the basic integration that Microsoft Outlook and Teams have already been showing.
That basic integration that exists between Microsoft Outlook and Teams will also improve in other aspects beyond the chat, although we still do not have details beyond what has been said. Little by little we will learn more news, and we will tell you about it. With everything, I can tell you that it is likely that we will see increasing integration of Teams chat features, and that this translates into certain interesting functions, such as the possibility of directly accessing a meeting chat created automatically in Teams through Outlook.
In the end, this integration between both platforms could lead to such a deep bond that, in the end, workers will be able to switch between the two without problems to get ahead of their different workloads, and without having to deal with a complicated user interface, as confirmed by Microsoft itself.
