Salesforce and Slack just filed a lawsuit against Microsoft over anticompetitive business practices, specifically bundling Teams with Office. However, Microsoft dismissed the antitrust claims, citing that Slack's "lackluster growth" is centered on a lack of video-conferencing support, further indicating that it has nothing to do with Microsoft.
And now, Microsoft appears to be using a clever new way to get Teams users to subscribe to the long-established Teams Premium plan. It's an add-on license that allows organizations with Microsoft 365 subscriptions to enhance their user experience on the platform with extra features, including more personalized and intelligent meetings, enhanced protection, and more.
