How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

contact information

Give same contact card information as in Skype. Teams only gives an abbreviated version of the contact card. There is no way to get the full contact card. I need fax, mobile, etc...not just work #.

    Why is this not already a standard feature? This is replacing Skype and yet it does not replicate the contacts information available in Skype and Outlook.
    Skype and Outlook integrate well, Teams should do the same thing or Skype retirement will never happen.

    When looking at the list of Contacts, we only see the Contact Name, Title and Phone Number. There is no Company name visible, so you have to remember which of the dozens of Johns in the list is the correct one. It also means that you cannot just enter the company name and search that way if you have forgotten the contact name. All this information is available in Skype.

    I would like to see additional phone numbers. Not being able to see their mobile is always sending me to Outlook to look them up instead.

    In particular, it would be helpful to be able to see a persons schedule for the day, as you can in Skype so that you'd know if they will be available any time that day or not. I don't want to have to pretend to create a meeting just to find that out.

    Migrated external contacts from Skype only use the skpy Id of the user. No other information comes over in the contact, and I have not figured out how to edit the contact. I can not add the name, company, phone numbers etc. As a result, I can not search for the user! This is horrible.

    Contact fields that are too long get cut off in Teams where they were not in Skype. Once cut off there's no way to access the information. There's no hover-over or dedicated card to read the information from within Teams.
