Join Teams work meetings from Microsoft Teams (free) and vice versa

on
Microsoft Teams (Free) users can currently join Teams for work (or school) meetings only as guests, which requires them to use a browser and results in a sub-optimal experience. The new feature rolling out will allow these users to join Teams for work (or school) meetings in one click, without being redirected to the browser or asked to fill in their name/surname. They will also be able to continue collaborating with the meeting organizer and other participants via meeting chat after the meeting.  The feature will work in the opposite way as well, so Teams for work (or school) will just as easily be able to join meetings hosted by a Teams Free user with one click.

A couple of favorite news about the world of Teams - Week 19

on
Another week, and thus another short summary of things happening in the world of Teams last week.

First of all, to all my Canadian friends and followers: Calling plans went GA on may the 1st Calling Plan GA Check out the following spreadsheet showing available calling plans.

The Teams app from the Windows 10 store has bee released for general preview, and can be found right here. A word of caution, I have been testing for a couple of weeks in a closed beta, and can recommend you only run one type of client on your desktop. Either the desktop version or the store version. Do a proper logout and uninstall of the client you do not want to use.

Not directly linked to Teams (yet), but as SRS support is coming to Teams soon I thought it would be nice to know Microsoft has refreshed the documentation set for SRS and posted it at docs.microsoft.com.

Finally this week, a reminder to tune into Teams on Air for bi-weekly updates. This latest episode was on managing users and policies.
