How This Site Is Funded
TeamsCentral is an independent educational resource covering online meetings, video conferencing, team communication, and workplace productivity tools. We do not sell any products or services of our own, and there is nothing to purchase on this Site. To help support the research, writing, and upkeep involved in producing our guides, some pages include affiliate or referral links to third-party software vendors, training resources, or related tools. When a reader clicks one of these links and goes on to take a qualifying action, such as signing up for a service or submitting an enquiry, we may earn a commission or referral fee from the third party. This comes at no additional cost to the reader.
What an Affiliate Link Is
An affiliate link is a specially tagged link that allows a third-party company to recognize that a visitor came from TeamsCentral. If that visitor goes on to take a qualifying action, such as signing up for a trial, creating an account, or completing a purchase, the third party may pay us a small commission or referral fee as thanks for the introduction. This is a common and widely used model across educational and review websites, and it allows us to keep our guides freely accessible without a paywall or subscription.
What It Costs You
Nothing. The price you pay for any product or service, and the terms you are offered, are exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the vendor's own website. Affiliate commissions are paid entirely by the third party out of their own marketing budget and are never added to any price or fee you might be charged.
How This Affects What We Publish
Our editorial choices are made independently of any affiliate relationship. A commission opportunity never buys a mention, a placement, or a favorable recommendation on TeamsCentral. We write our guides, comparisons, and tutorials based on what we believe will genuinely help readers understand collaboration tools, online meetings, and productivity software, and we include affiliate links only where a product or resource is relevant to the topic at hand. If something is not useful or not worth recommending, the possibility of earning a commission does not change that assessment.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
Where practical, we aim to make it clear when a link on our Site may be an affiliate or referral link, such as through nearby context or a disclosure note on the page itself. This Affiliate Disclosure page serves as a standing, site-wide notice covering all such links across TeamsCentral, including those found within our guides such as our articles on Teams 365 for Business, O365 Apps and Integrations, and other pages listed under What We Cover.
Advertising and Sponsored Content
In addition to affiliate links, pages on the Site may at times feature display advertising or clearly labeled sponsored content from third parties. Where any content is sponsored, we aim to identify it as such. Advertising placements, like affiliate links, do not influence the independent judgments expressed in our unsponsored educational content.
Third-Party Sites
Clicking an affiliate or referral link will take you to a website operated by a third party, outside of TeamsCentral's control. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, pricing, or privacy practices of any third-party website. We encourage you to review the terms, policies, and offerings of any third-party site before taking action, including signing up for a service or sharing personal information.
