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.

The "new" look for Office on the web

on


It's been awhile since Microsoft announced "The new look" in Office on their desktop versions (June 2021). It has been available as preview for many customers, but it will now (2023 Q3) slowly roll out to customers everywhere. It is not the biggest of changes, but there are some smaller changed to icons and layout. It's not a big change, but it's nice to see office on the web getting the same "facelift" desktop users have been accustomed to. Having the same look and feel will make it easier for office users as they often have to navigate both versions in their daily work.

Here is a little reminder as of how to toggle between "preview" and "old" feature: The new look of Office - Microsoft Support

And here is the roadmap iten to keep an eye on (they may change the schedule after this post is live): Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365
