Microsoft Teams desktop app coming to new Office 365 ProPlus installs
Plan For Change
Published On : 14 February 2019
In an effort to improve and streamline user’s initial experience with Teams, we’re making an enhancement so that the desktop Teams app will now be downloaded automatically when new users with Office 365 ProPlus licenses first download the Office Pro Plus apps. Microsoft will begin rolling this feature out soon.
How does this affect me?
After this change takes place for your organization, Microsoft Teams will be included in the initial user download with other apps like Word, PowerPoint and Excel in their Office 365 ProPlus subscription. You or your users will no longer need to separately download and install Teams. This change does not affect any existing users who are already licensed and using the service.
Microsoft began gradually rolling this change out to Targeted Release organizations in mid-January. On February 25, 2019 the rollout will continue to Monthly Channel, and to Semi-Annual Channel Targeted (SAC-T) subscribers on March 12. Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) subscribers will see this change in July 2019.
What do I need to do to prepare for this change?
If you want your new users to have access to Microsoft Teams by default, then there’s nothing you need to do to prepare for this change. If you would like to restrict access to Teams, or delay the rollout for your organization, please click link below:-
