Microsoft Teams Update: What Q3 2025 will bring!
Teams is getting a bit better again and you can tell!
In the third quarter of 2025, Microsoft released a whole range of practical innovations for Teams. Some of them are exclusive to Premium users, but many are also available to all Teams users. What stands out: it's the small details that make the difference in everyday life, in meetings and in chats.
We have summarized the most exciting features for you, explained in an understandable way and with a practical assessment.
Personal meeting templates for Teams Premium
Meetings at the touch of a button? That's now possible!
With the new templates in Teams Premium, you can create meetings with predefined settings such as waiting area, moderation or chat options. Once created, you can use your template again and again, standardized, efficient, without thinking.
🔍 Dinotronic conclusion: Anyone who often organizes meetings will love this function. Especially in combination with automated processes, it not only saves time, but also creates structure in everyday meeting life.
Microphone volume display
"Can you hear me?" is a thing of the past.
Thanks to the new volume indicator, you can see immediately in the meeting toolbar whether your microphone is picking you up correctly. No more guesswork, no more asking, just clear sound from the start.
🔍 O ur opinion: A seemingly small change with a big effect. More security, fewer interruptions, better communication.
Multiple emoji reactions to messages
From now on, you can add several emojis to a message at the same time and thus react in a much more nuanced way: 👍🔥😂 - all at once. This brings more expression without overloading the chat with text.
🔍 O ur tip: consciously use this new option to make your digital exchanges more human and lively. Especially in hybrid teams, details like this make a difference.
Standardized file opening settings
Where should a file be opened, in the browser, in the app or directly in Teams?
You can now control this centrally company-wide for Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Teams. This results in a consistent user experience and less support effort.
🔍 O ur recommendation: set clear standards for your company to reduce queries and make day-to-day work easier.
Intelligent spell checker for multiple languages
When typing in chat, Teams now automatically highlights errors as you know it from Word. You get correction suggestions, can ignore or add words to the dictionary. New: Up to three languages are recognized and checked simultaneously.
🔍 O ur conclusion: A huge advantage for multilingual teams! Communication remains professional and understandable, without typos or stumbling blocks.
Conclusion: Small features, big impact
The Q3 update doesn't bring a revolution, but it does bring many well thought-out improvements that really make everyday work easier. Premium users in particular will benefit, but Teams is also getting a bit better across the board.
Our impression at Dinotronic: it's details like these that make digital collaboration more efficient and a little more pleasant. That's how it should be.
