Element, alternative Linux à Microsoft Teams (new UI)
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Element is a capable replacement for Microsoft Teams (new UI) for users who prioritize privacy, decentralization, and open standards over tight Office 365 integration. It handles group video calls, persistent chat rooms, screen sharing, and cross-platform sync reliably. If your organization doesn’t depend on Outlook, SharePoint, or Teams-native scheduling, Element performs well for team communication and collaboration. However, it lacks deep calendar integration and Microsoft document co-editing. Best suited for tech teams, open-source projects, or organizations already using Matrix.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft Teams (new UI)
Element allows file sharing and viewing of common formats like PDF, images, and documents, but does not support real-time co-editing of Microsoft Office files. You can upload and download .docx, .xlsx, or .pptx files and open them in compatible Linux apps like LibreOffice. There is no automatic conversion or syncing with OneDrive or SharePoint. If your team relies on collaborative editing in Office apps, this workflow gap must be managed externally.

Can Element replace Teams for daily stand-ups and team meetings?
Yes, Element supports reliable WebRTC video conferencing with screen sharing, making it suitable for daily meetings. Group calls work well with up to 10–12 participants. However, it lacks call recording and advanced meeting controls found in Teams.
Does Element support single sign-on or enterprise identity providers?
Some Matrix servers support SSO via SAML or OIDC, but it depends on the server setup. Public servers like matrix.org do not offer SSO. Self-hosted instances can integrate with corporate identity systems using Synapse or other homeservers.
Can I use Element alongside Microsoft 365?
Yes, but with limitations. You can use Element for chat and video calls while using 365 in the browser for email and calendar. There’s no direct sync between Element and Outlook or Teams, so you’ll need to manage both separately.
