What are "Teams" in CRM and Are They Useful? From the Dynamic Methods Microsoft CRM blog: "I've been asked a handful of times what Teams are in CRM and when it would be appropriate to use them... Teams are groups of users that can have records shared with them, to facilitate sharing records in mass with groups of people. That is the primary role of Teams within CRM... Teams may also be used when setting up "Resources" for a given "Service" within the Scheduling Calendar.
