Element als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Teams (old version with full calling features)
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Element is a solid replacement for Microsoft Teams (legacy) if you don’t rely on PSTN calling or deep Microsoft 365 integration. It handles chat, video conferencing, screen sharing, and file sharing well, with strong encryption and cross-platform sync. Teams already using Matrix or prioritizing privacy will adapt easily. However, organizations needing dial pads, outbound phone calls, or calendar sync with Outlook won’t find equivalent functionality. Element works best for collaborative teams open to shifting workflows rather than matching Teams feature-for-feature.

Ihre Microsoft Teams (old version with full calling features)-Dateien öffnen
Element allows uploading and downloading files directly, so any documents shared in Microsoft Teams can be manually re-uploaded. There’s no automated import of Teams chat history or file structure. File formats like PDF, DOCX, or images work without issue, but metadata, timestamps, or threaded replies from Teams are not preserved. Migration requires manual effort or custom scripting.
