Microsoft Technical Community 200k members milestone

Microsoft recently published a blog on its Technical Community forum, celebrating the fact that it had reached the milestone of 200,000 members. Over the last year, as the business and communication landscape has changed, people from all backgrounds have turned to Microsoft Teams as a way to improve their communication and collaboration strategy.

The popularity of Microsoft Teams has accelerated at a phenomenal rate this year, with the latest figures for daily active users in November 2020 at a whopping 115 million. Throughout this year, many people have discovered virtual team solutions for the first time with Microsoft’s help, and the community keeps on growing.

Building a Microsoft Community

With the world now going virtual at an astronomical pace, Microsoft’s community has grown larger than ever before, not just from a Teams user perspective. The Microsoft technical community helps to make Microsoft Teams better for everyone, by suggesting updates to the experience, and pointing out possible bugs. Microsoft thanks the tech community for challenging its engineering team to accomplish new things and create new experiences.

The blog notes that it has been a thrilling three years to watch the community grow, and that a 600% increase in activity over the past few months has been fantastic. As more people have taken to Teams as the solution for managing collaboration and team conversations, the technical community forum has flourished. Currently, there are 449 blog articles available on the site, as well as 10 spaces, and 15.7k of discussions – all about Microsoft Teams.

Another Testament to Microsoft Growth

This recent achievement in the Microsoft Teams technical community is yet another sign that Microsoft has accomplished some incredible growth in recent years. From the point when Microsoft Teams was introduced in 2017, to the point that we’re at today, it’s clear to see how significant Microsoft’s rise to success has been.

As we move forward in to 2021, we can only imagine what another year of updates, enhancements, and new community members will mean to the Microsoft landscape.
