Microsoft, Meta Collaborate: All You Need To Know - Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)

Microsoft Corporation MSFT collaborated with Meta Platforms Inc FB to integrate Microsoft Teams into Meta's Workplace platform, the Verge reports.
Interestingly, Workplace focuses on broad, companywide connections, while Teams focuses on instantaneous communication between workers and their direct colleagues, CNBC reports.
Customers, including Vodafone Group Plc VOD and Accenture Plc ACN, sought the integration.
"The way our customers end up using it is customers use the complementary features, not the competing features," said Ujjwal Singh, Meta's head of Workplace.
Facebook Workplace or Workplace by Meta will soon integrate Microsoft Teams to live stream video into Workplace groups.
The Microsoft Teams integration into Workplace will also allow employees using Teams or Workplace to view, comment and react to meetings in real-time without switching between apps.
Microsoft is also integrating Workplace into Teams, which will enable Teams users to access Workplace content through an app within Teams.
The app will be pinned to the Teams navigation bar and will include a homepage of Workplace content.
Teams administrators will also mark content as necessary to showcase it in the Workplace app.
Teams will arrive on the Meta Portal (Facebook Portal) device in December, allowing people to use video calling in Teams.
The latest Teams and Workplace integration goes live on Nov. 10.
Now businesses can share Workplace content with Teams.
The live streaming of Teams meetings into the Workplace will be available in early 2022.
The Workplace can already integrate into SharePoint, OneDrive and Microsoft's Office 365 suite.
Meta has also integrated Workplace into Microsoft's Azure Active Directory.
