Getting started with Company Contacts: login, navigation, trial
Company Contacts is a central contact management solution for Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365: a shared address book for your team, extended with topics (themes and tasks per contact), AI-assisted emails and full integration with Outlook and Entra ID. This page walks you through your first login and the basic navigation.
