Element als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Teams (Windows app with full calling and meeting features)

Unser Fazit
Element is a viable replacement for Microsoft Teams if your organization prioritizes open standards, decentralization, and end-to-end encryption. It supports core collaboration features like encrypted messaging, voice and video calls, screen sharing, and persistent rooms. However, it lacks deep integration with Microsoft 365 tools like Outlook, OneDrive, and SharePoint, which many Teams users rely on. Element works well for teams starting fresh or already using Matrix, but enterprises deeply embedded in the Microsoft ecosystem will face workflow gaps, especially around calendar syncing and file collaboration.

Ihre Microsoft Teams (Windows app with full calling and meeting features)-Dateien öffnen
Element does not directly open or import Microsoft Teams chat history, meeting recordings, or channel files. File sharing in Element works through room attachments or external storage integrations like S3 or Nextcloud, but there is no automated migration path from Teams. Users must manually download and re-upload files. If your team uses OneDrive or SharePoint, those files can still be accessed via links, but they are not natively embedded or previewed in Element like in Teams.

Can I join a Microsoft Teams meeting from Element?
No, Element cannot join Microsoft Teams meetings directly. Teams uses proprietary protocols, and there is no bridge for joining meetings. You’ll need the Teams app for that.
Is end-to-end encryption enabled by default in Element?
No, E2E encryption must be manually enabled per room. Most public or organization-hosted rooms may not have it turned on by default.
Can Element replace Teams for a large company?
It can, but only with significant planning. You’ll need to replace Microsoft 365 integrations with open alternatives and ensure reliable calling through third-party VoIP providers.
