Microsoft Teams vs Microsoft SharePoint

Microsoft Teams was named by eleven of the twelve models and Microsoft SharePoint by twelve and Microsoft Teams carries 13 labels and Microsoft SharePoint 37, so the shares are not directly comparable.

Share is the count of first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts over all twelve models, for a mid-market B2B company; rank is within the category; every quote names the model and the prompt it came from. Both figures come from the internal communications and intranet page.
