Keep Microsoft Teams for…
- Team chat, channels and file sharing.
- Internal meetings inside Microsoft 365.
- Work where IT manages everything in one admin center.
R-Link vs. Microsoft Teams
Teams runs the office.
R-Link runs the sale.
Teams is where a lot of companies chat, share files and meet. It’s built for coworkers. When you’re presenting to prospects, customers or a live audience, R-Link puts your offer and checkout on screen while you talk.

No way to sell on screen. The link gets buried, the event ends, and the sale moves to your inbox.

One click puts checkout on screen. They buy while you're still talking.
An honest take
Which one is right for you?
Choose R-Link if…
- Calls with prospects and customers that end with an offer.
- Webinars and live streams where people buy, book and sign up.
- Guests who shouldn’t need a Microsoft account or app to join.
- You’d rather pay per account than per seat.
“To me, it is the best conversion platform. To be able to scroll and click on a link while a presenter is still presenting, is remarkable.”
“I love that I can drop clickable links during meetings where people can visit my site or make a purchase while we’re still talking.”

Do I have to stop using Teams?

Is R-Link cheaper than Teams?
For internal meetings, Teams usually costs less per person. R-Link is priced for selling live: Business is $50 a month for five rooms running at once, with webinars up to 1,000 attendees, live streaming and every element.
