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

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. This is associated with Roadmap ID: 167326

Coming to Ignite Tour Stockholm next week


I am pleased to announce I am going to Stockholm to join the Ignite Tour. I have been asked by Paul Cherbin to join him for his session "Skype for business to Microsoft Teams: guidance for a successful upgrade"
I have been invited to talk about some of the options there are for bringing Scandinavian PSTN numbers to Teams. More specifically on "Hosted Direct Routing" provided by Telenor, and how we tie this service in with our mobile services as well.

I will probably be in the Expo area for most of the event, and will be at the Teams booth holding demos and answering your questions. So if you feel like a chat or to have a cup of coffee, don't be shy. I'll love to answer some of those Teams-PSTN questions you might have.
