Outlook Groups App Reviews

This app is pinnacle to our jobs and collaboration

Love the evolution of the collaboration tools and the ability to share docs and messages anywhere I am outside the corporate network

I am not sure what those reviews below are talking about. This app works great. Notification works reliably and I can access my group conversations much easier than using the Outlook app. Keep up the good work!

Works great every time!

I established the connection relatively easy. However, now when I open the app it just locks up. Every now and then I can get lucky and scroll through the first tab but when I try to access the calendar or the Notes it locks forever. I have to shut the app down and try again but never successful anymore. No hint as to what is going on for me to investigate and troubleshoot.

Freezes whenever I try to open a group.

I DO NOT like outlook mail, the only reason I have it is because I am forced to use it for our Work e-mail system, it is not user friendly and difficult to learn!

Ive been using this with my classmates for a few weeks now and its awesome especially the office 365 integration. Its not without its imperfections but its pretty darn good and gives a great sense of where Microsoft can take this platform next as a company. LinkedIn makes a heck of a lot of sense now.

Looks a little like Ms. Pacman. Clunky, difficult to use, outdated.

This is an amazing app for collaboration!!

Very disappointed. Instead of using a calendar to display appointments or meetings it puts them in. List. So you cant go to a day to see whats going on that day because its all in a list. I really need a calendar view.

Extremely limited app. Could have had much more features. Shocking at what this app cannot do.

Good potential, but really needs the Planner/Tasks features adding to make it useful.

I opened it, signed into my work account, and clicked the frost group Im in. It crashed. I reopened it, got into the group. Files are buried, behind an inbox. My employees want to use this like Dropbox not a shared inbox, and Microsoft insists on layering the file sharing feature behind everything else. I click an excel document. Excel opens, and asks me to sign in again. This time it asks me if it is a work or personal account. Excel cant even figure out which account forwarded it the document its been asked to open. Excel crashed. Went back to groups, clicked document again, and a couple minutes later it finally opened. Tldr: way too clunky for inexperienced people to use compared to Dropbox and box.

Really nice app! Love the integration with files and email... I like slack, but this is by far a much better work!

Love it. Makes interacting with groups fast and seamless.

Can follow updates from my team, share files, notes, and photos. Beats using the web.

Easy to post. Love the discover and @mention feature. Way to go !!!

Great app with simple intuitive UX. I can finally catch up on my group conversations when on the go. The files and one note integration is cool too!!!

This app reminds me of old school Microsoft. So many gotchas that you cant really use it without an Exchange administrator and IT support. Just try adding someone from outside your domain to a group. No can do. Actually can kinda do but its a clunky addition to a single message and the outsider cant become a member. What the heck is Microsoft trying to prove here other than domination over Yammer?!
