This Week In Microsoft Teams - 28th Feb 2021
Microsoft Teams will soon offer ad-hoc meetings
Microsoft Teams is getting a new feature that simplifies setting up quick meetings. The previous workflow required users to click the “New Meeting” button in the calendar tab, fill in all meeting details, including title, date, time, meeting info sections, etc., to share a meeting invite.
Microsoft Teams update will reduce meetings admin
An upcoming update to Microsoft's Teams collaboration platform will allow users to create instant “Meet Now” links, which can be used to launch into a meeting instantly. According to the company's product roadmap, the feature will be available shortly.
Microsoft will integrate Teams, Outlook, and Dynamics 365
Dynamics 365 users will be able to embed Teams chat, meetings, calling, and records directly in Dynamics 365 apps, such as Customer Service and Sales, to make team collaboration more real-time.
Microsoft Teams enables conference calls without setting up a meeting
Microsoft Teams users can now copy and share a Meet Now without starting the meeting first. According to the Teams roadmap, the Teams update will begin rolling out to the Microsoft Teams Mac and Windows desktop clients and the Web application in late February.
