The recent update to Microsoft Teams, which introduces an optimized noise suppression mode for headset users on Windows, is set to create a ripple effect that benefits both admins and users alike.
For users, this enhancement means clearer communication in meetings, as the technology will actively filter out unwanted background noise.
