I think "is" is grammatically correct here. Teams is the name of the application, singular.

Teams is the name of the application, singular.

Teams *are the name of the application, singular.

Yeah, you're completely right. Microsoft Teams refers to multiple communications platforms, not just one. Wikipedia and Microsoft themselves made the same mistake as OP here. Hope you can help!
