The New Teams is Available!
The new Teams desktop client provides a faster, simpler, and more flexible experience. The new Teams client loads faster, letting you launch the app and join meetings more quickly. The switch from Classic Teams to New Teams will have very little impact on users. There are a few small changes in appearance and functionality and an improved interface in Teams Meetings.
