Do any of the big 4 use MS Teams? My firm says we can’t use it due to GDPR. Is this nonsense? We seem to want to continue to use papyrus and fountain pens.

It's rubbish, teams is rubbish but also the gdpr argument, it's as data secure as any other form of digital communication, email for example, assuming your company uses that then they really have no right excuse.

The only reason then that I can think of is cost and learning to use it effectively. A lot of people, you have to try to understand, know what they know, they are comfortable in that and don't want to have to learn anything else.

My advice then is to talk to the ones refusing it to find out exactly why, if cost is the issue then showing current costs compared with costs of using it.

If it's learning to use the system then put together a PowerPoint to show how to set it up and use it.
