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.

Tighter Outlook and Teams integration

on


Users will soon be able to set their Out of Office settings and notifications from within Teams, and this will then sync with Exchange online.

Microsoft Teams have for a long time been able to read the OOF status from Exchange, but with the new update announced it will also be able to write status.

According to the Admin center, this feature will roll out during May

There will be two ways to access this feature from Teams, one through the "Set status message" panel accessible from the user profile image, the other from the "settings" page shown in the image above.
