The essence of a good teams naming convention is simplicity and clarity. This article explains why those aspects are so important in terms of helping users. We suggest some guidelines that tenant administrators can use to make sure that their team names are simple and clear.
Microsoft Teams doesn’t come with a Teams Directory, so it’s hard to know if a suitable team already exists when people ask for a new team. This fact contributions to teams sprawl where multiple teams exist to serve the same purpose. Teams sprawl creates an obstacle to effective collaboration and runs the danger that some important information is tucked away inside teams that no one ever goes near. Creating a Teams Directory helps team owners and users know what teams already exist inside a tenant. It’s an idea that just makes sense.
