For example, you don’t access a Group through a standard “Groups” web interface: you can get there through Outlook, Yammer, Teams, or elsewhere. This makes things difficult because 'Groups' is more a concept or an experience than it is a thing. You’re not going to find it in the Waffle, which confuses… everybody.
Why? Because few people (even in my field) can explain Groups well… or correctly. There’s little-to-no learning curve: get in and start working.īut they’re also one of the most confusing new things in Office 365.
They provide quick, easy access to an online workspace for communicating with colleagues and collaborating on documents and files. On a user level, Microsoft 365 Groups-which until recently were known as Office 365 Groups and I’ll simply refer to as the capitalized Groups in this article-represent one of the biggest selling points for moving to Office 365.
