Teams with LawToolBox versus Zoom – detailed feature comparison

Apr 2, 2020

Both Microsoft Teams and Zoom can be used to hold meetings quickly, but between the two only Microsoft Teams is integrated with LawToolBox matter management and can expand into a comprehensive collaboration solution. As courts and law firms navigate through the COVID-19 pandemic, the extensibility and benefits of Teams plus LawToolBox offer a compelling use case: 1. Teams is totally configurable. Teams can be configured for working and tracking information on specific matters, or it can be used to track general information. Users can create Teams for a specific case or appeal, and invitees can vary depending on which Team you ae working on. Beneath a Team, channels can be created by topic, and channels can made private, and tabs can be added extending the Team to specific documents, websites or cloud-based products. See, Configure Microsoft Teams & LawToolBox for Legal (7 min video). 2.
