Microsoft was hit with an EU antitrust complaint by German rival alfaview on Thursday, the second so far over its bundling of video app Teams into its Office product.

    The “microsoft rival”, as it is called in the headline, is alfaview, a company that offers GDPR compliant video conferencing software.

    And they complain that Teams gets bundled with Office by default which givea this an advantage over other (their) product.

      Microsoft’s principal argument for this case should be that Zoom is the premier video conference software and it is not bundled with Windows.

      In my experience, the meeting software usage frequency across companies is Zoom > WebEx > Teams.

      So if Alfaview wants to compete, make a better product.
