What is Microsoft Viva?
Microsoft Viva is the first employee experience platform built for the digital era. Microsoft Viva brings together communications, knowledge, learning, resources and insights into an integrated employee experience that empowers people and teams to be their best, from anywhere. Microsoft Viva is powered by Microsoft 365 and experienced through Microsoft Teams, as well as other Microsoft 365 apps such as Outlook.
Research shows employees are happier when they carve out time for wellbeing, feel connected to their organization, have opportunities to learn and grow, and can get in a flow state. Microsoft Viva addresses all these needs by integrating solutions right where people work in Microsoft 365 and Teams, empowering employees both personally and professionally.
How is Microsoft Teams performing?
Microsoft Teams is the de facto standard for collaboration and has become essential to how hundreds of millions of people meet, call, chat, collaborate, and do business. As we emerge from the pandemic, we are retaining users we’ve gained and are seeing increased engagement too, interacting with Teams 1,500 times per month on average. In a typical day, the average commercial user spends more time in Teams chat than they do in e-mail, and the number of users who use four or more features within Teams increased over 20 percent year over year.
Teams is becoming a ubiquitous platform for business processes. Monthly active enterprise users running third party and custom applications within Teams increased nearly 60 percent year over year. And, over 55 percent of our enterprise customers who use Teams today also buy Teams Rooms or Teams Phone. Teams Phone provides the best in class calling and PSTN users have grown by double-digits for five quarters in a row.
