Below is an excerpt from the book titled "Meetings and Live Events in Microsoft Teams." This chapter provides a Microsoft Teams meetings tutorial that includes tips for scheduled and ad hoc team meetings, webinars and broadcasted live events.
Teams meetings can have up to 250 participants, and Teams offers users a variety of features and capabilities to enhance meeting productivity, including content sharing, whiteboarding and recordings. Teams integrates with third-party apps, as well as other Microsoft apps and services, including OneDrive and SharePoint, to enable users to meet, work and communicate within the context of their team or channel.
But a Teams meeting may not be the right option for all meeting scenarios. Employees must use live events for meetings that call for more than 250 participants. The live events support up to 10,000 participants, which suits several broadcast scenarios, such as town halls and webinars.
