Xenaxio vs Microsoft Teams

Teams is chat, meetings and events in Microsoft 365 – meetings for up to 300 people in the Business plans, and large webinars and town halls. It runs only in Microsoft’s cloud; there is no version for your own servers, and Copilot in meetings needs a paid licence. Rooms and Meetings in Xenaxio run next to mail and calendar, in Germany or on your own servers.

Chat and meetings should run in Germany or on your own servers. You want chat, mail and calendar in one app, without a Microsoft licence. Your meetings are mostly small: team, clients, first calls.

You run meetings with hundreds of people or large events, and need recordings. Your company works in Microsoft 365 every day.

Yes: Rooms. Your administrator switches on Rooms, the team chat: channels, direct messages, threads, mentions, reactions, files and search, with push notifications on computer and phone. Every company has its own chat server in Germany. Through the open Matrix standard you can also chat with other companies – your administrator decides whether and with which.

Yes: Meetings. Every meeting has its own link. You create it in the event with one click, the invitation carries the link, and every online booking can get a meeting of its own. People join in the browser, nothing to install: colleagues directly, guests without an account through a waiting room you let them in from. In the meeting there are camera, microphone, screen sharing, chat, raised hands and reactions; anyone from your company can mute microphones, remove participants or end the meeting for everyone. In Rooms you start a call right in a channel or a direct message. Video and sound run encrypted through our media server in Germany – or, on-premise, through your own. Up to 25 people per meeting by default; your administrator can switch meetings and guests off.
