off legal action against Teams based on an antitrust complaint levied two years ago by rival Slack.<\/p>\n<p>Slack, the workspace messaging app now owned by Salesforce, <a target=\"_blank\"

chat and video collaboration platform with the Office suite.<\/p>\n<p>Given how ubiquitous Office is in the enterprise space, bundling Teams would give Microsoft an unfair advantage in the booming collaboration space, according to Slack, echoing similar complaints lodged against the giant software maker over the past three decades.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" data-pos=\"top\"
