Teams vs Zoom

Microsoft presents a new feature similar to the Zoom application on its video platform, namely Teams.

This feature allows Microsoft Teams users to change the background or background image when they are having a video conference.

According to the Engadget report on Sunday (04/12/2020), there are some differences that Teams has compared to the Zoom application.

Because the user has not been able to upload images that are used as background. Instead, users can choose the background that has been provided by the Teams platform.

Behind the scenes, Microsoft explains the kitchen making this feature, namely by applying it in a blur background that uses AI to blur the environment behind the user.

On the other hand, video conferencing applications are increasingly in demand by many people, along with the implementation of social distancing or social distance in various parts of the world to break the chain of COVID-19 distribution.

At the beginning of the pandemic, Zoom skyrocketed because it was used by most professionals who were forced to work from home but remained connected to one another.
