About Microsoft Teams at Syracuse University

What does Teams provide?

Microsoft Teams is the chat-based workspace in Office 365 that integrates all the members, content, and tools your team needs to be more engaged and effective. With Teams you can:

• Pull together a team.

• Use chat instead of email.

• Securely edit files at the same time.

• See likes, @mentions, and replies with just a single tap.

• Customize it by adding notes, web sites, and apps.

What to know about Teams at Syracuse.

• Team Names - SU enforces a naming convention that ensures that all Team names are unique.  This allows for easier discovery when looking for a specific team in the user interfaces.
  • Names will be automatically prefixed with "Group-".  This is to show that it is a group/team created by a user.
  • Names will be automatically suffixed with number if there is a group/team that already exists with that name.
  • Syracuse University - ITS may change the name of the group if it conflicts with official university departmental names.  Some of the official names are located in the Brand Lock-Up Directory.
