They use it because the corporation mandates it.
AWS is the worst of this experience, even IBM Cloud has better tooling in this regard, GCP is somehow in the middle, others like Vercel/Netlify naturally don't offer this kind of setup.
IMO Firebase should be the gold standard of how to do cloud platforms
But you know what's super underrated and I think could really take a hold on the business world? Discord! The video calls are so good! And multiple streams at the same time? Zoom can't do that!
The channels, too, just blow everything teams has out of the water. The video quality is better, its way faster, has more features, and they actually work. The audio filtering stuff actually works.
I really think with the right marketing they could take over the world. Honestly can't believe they haven't tried it yet.
It’s a shame they don’t have an enterprise / business tailored product based on it
Teams took the best bits from Skype and whatever that other service Microsoft had for businesses and their phones and started over basically.
I still have pet peeves about Teams (like why dont the 'Teams' within Teams have proper group chats like Slack would, its ridiculous!) but it could be way worse. After years of screensharing hell I can finally move the stupid top bar out of my way when trying to hit 'Debug' within Visual Studio at least.
It works decently enough in web, mobile and desktop.
